“Backend engineer who has shipped both high-throughput real-time systems and production LLM/RAG features. Built a database-free, local-first messaging service (Node/Express/Socket.IO) achieving ~1,500 msgs/sec at <25ms p95, and implemented a Go-based RAG recommendation pipeline with strict JSON/schema validation, catalog grounding, fallbacks, and eval loops that cut hallucinations to ~1–2% while reducing LLM costs ~60%.”

“Software/data engineer who has shipped internal platform features end-to-end, including a widely used CSV export tool with synchronous + async flows on AWS that reduced timeouts and improved database access security. Also built a high-volume pipeline processing 80M+ daily banking transactions for advertiser user categorization, and delivered a production Gemini-powered financial calculator using structured prompting and robust API error handling.”

“Built and shipped AI-powered workflow automation at Oracle, including an MCP-based agentic workflow with tool-calling and guardrails, plus Grafana monitoring and Confluence documentation. Also led a Django monolith-to-microservices migration at Chamsmobile using blue-green deployment and load balancer traffic splitting to avoid regressions while modernizing production systems.”

“Backend/data engineer who built a production booking platform on FastAPI microservices (Postgres/Redis/gRPC) and delivered AWS infrastructure spanning Lambda, ECS, SQS, and Glue-to-Redshift analytics. Demonstrated measurable SQL optimization (10 minutes to <40 seconds) and strong operational ownership through monitoring, incident response, and schema-evolution hardening.”

“AI Backend Engineer in MetLife’s claims technology group who built and deployed a production LLM-based decision support system that helps claim adjusters quickly find relevant policy rules from long PDFs and historical notes. Designed it as multiple production-grade services with retrieval-first guardrails, continuous validation, and Airflow-orchestrated pipelines for ingestion, embeddings, and vector index updates to keep the system reliable as policies and data evolve.”

“Backend/cloud engineer who built an AWS serverless IoT system that computes Bluetooth beacon locations from telemetry using heavy scientific Python (NumPy/SciPy/pandas) packaged as Dockerized Lambda, integrated with Java microservices and scheduled batch orchestration. Has deep AWS delivery experience (CI/CD with Code* tools, CloudFormation, cost controls) and has led high-severity incident response including CloudTrail forensics and infrastructure recovery after a compromised-keys crypto-mining attack.”

“Forward-deployed engineer who built a production AI drone-control chatbot that lets users fly a drone via natural language while viewing a real-time feed. Implemented RAG over drone SDK documentation (vector DB + top-k retrieval) and LoRA fine-tuning, with a focus on latency, token efficiency, and cost reduction, and regularly works with non-technical clients to integrate and explain AI system architecture.”
