Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in AI/ML and full-stack systems

Seattle, WA4y exp

“Engineer with Apple experience building LLM-powered internal workflow orchestration systems using Python, LangGraph, FastAPI, Redis, vector search, and Kubernetes. Stands out for a highly pragmatic, production-focused approach to agentic systems: deterministic state management, strong guardrails, observability, and human review for high-risk actions.”

“Backend/data engineer with production experience at Walmart and HealthSnap building Python services and data pipelines on AWS (EKS, Lambda, Glue, Airflow). Strong reliability and operations focus—implemented idempotency + circuit breakers for peak-traffic consistency issues, GitOps CI/CD, and observability. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (Postgres p95 45s to <5s, ~60% CPU reduction) and modernized SAS batch workflows to Python with parallel-run parity validation and feature-flagged rollout.”

“Backend/data engineer who has owned production Python APIs and high-throughput async workflows on AWS (FastAPI, Docker, ECS/EKS/Lambda) with mature reliability practices like idempotency, bounded retries, circuit breakers, and strong observability. Also built AWS Glue ETL into an S3/Redshift lakehouse and modernized legacy batch systems via parallel-run parity testing and feature-flagged migrations, including a SQL tuning win cutting a multi-minute query to under 10 seconds.”

Hunt Valley, MD20y exp

“Former Xendit (YC-backed fintech) operator applying outcome-driven, scalable product-building experience to a new startup: a real-time, personalized real estate investment intelligence platform. Has begun prototyping, completed ROI analysis, and validated the space with US market research plus broker interviews in Chicago and Los Angeles, aiming to differentiate from Zillow/Redfin with goal-based ranked investment recommendations.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in AI and FinTech platforms

New York City, NY8y exp

“Built a production LLM pipeline at Walter AI that scans massive user inboxes, identifies financial newsletters, and extracts trading strategies into structured JSON for downstream paper-trading workflows. Stands out for combining agent architecture with strong production discipline—cutting scan time from 20 to 5 minutes, reducing LLM costs by 90%, and achieving 3-second P99 latency while handling messy, inconsistent email data at scale.”

Robert Davis

Staff Software Engineer specializing in backend and distributed systems

Remote, US19y exp

“Backend engineer who co-launched SkyKick’s Office 365 SharePoint/Exchange backup product, built the MVP, and then architected and led its design for 9 years. Stands out for high-scale systems expertise, including an algorithmic redesign that cut cloud costs by an order of magnitude, plus earlier experience integrating speech recognition systems in noisy real-world customer environments.”

“Senior software engineer candidate who uses AI and multi-agent workflows thoughtfully to speed up development while preserving engineering rigor for production-critical decisions. Stands out for a clear risk-based framework: leveraging agents for boilerplate, refactoring, testing, and debugging, while relying on fundamentals, metrics, and human review for system design and scalability.”
