Senior Frontend Engineer specializing in high-performance React/Next.js web apps

Remote, Canada8y exp

“Frontend engineer with experience at Autodesk and Quantify, leading and scaling Next.js/React + TypeScript products from architecture through QA. Strong focus on performance (Core Web Vitals, ISR, caching/CDN) and real-time interfaces (WebSockets, Chart.js/D3), with measurable wins like 30–40% bundle reduction and ~60% less data overfetching using GraphQL/Apollo.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building FastAPI Python APIs and AWS-native platforms (Lambda/API Gateway, SQS, ECS Fargate) with Terraform + GitHub Actions CI/CD and strong reliability practices (JWT/RBAC, retries/timeouts, structured errors/logging). Also built AWS Glue ETL pipelines (S3/RDS to curated S3/Athena) with schema evolution and data quality controls, modernized legacy processing via parallel-run validation and phased cutovers, and has demonstrated SQL tuning impact (seconds to <200ms) plus incident ownership for batch pipeline SLAs.”

Senior Java Full-Stack Developer specializing in microservices and cloud platforms

5y exp

“Frontend engineer who has led enterprise-scale UI delivery end-to-end on a microservices platform, designing modular Angular SPAs (v12-17) tightly aligned to Spring Boot REST APIs. Emphasizes quality and release velocity through layered testing (Karma/Jasmine), CI/CD automation (Jenkins/Azure DevOps), performance tuning with RxJS/lazy loading, and incremental rollouts with close product/design/QA collaboration.”

“AI-focused product engineer working on LLM routing, prompt engineering, and multimodal API integrations at production scale. They describe improving system accuracy, latency, and token usage, fine-tuning an internal model to reduce third-party API dependence, and adding safety guardrails through prompt-injection testing and red-team evaluation.”

Mid-Level Software Development Engineer specializing in distributed systems and event-driven architectures

Santa Clara, California4y exp

“Built and maintained an internal JavaScript/React real-time event monitoring UI used by multiple Goldman Sachs teams (e.g., Private Wealth Management and Bulk Trading Systems). Focused on scaling performance under hundreds of events/sec—using profiling, memoization, batching, and debouncing—and paired it with strong internal documentation and disciplined incident diagnosis via synthetic load testing and logs/metrics.”

“Full-stack product engineer who owned a live-events digital ticketing platform end-to-end, including blockchain-based ticket validation and high-traffic booking flows. Stands out for combining Angular/React frontend work with Java/Spring Boot backend architecture, plus strong production reliability practices around concurrency control, queues, observability, and UX optimization.”

“Built and deployed an AI Copilot for Healthful Telehealth that helps dietitians generate personalized meal plans using patient data and real-time clinical context. Stands out for owning the full lifecycle—from workflow discovery and ETL/RAG architecture to production incident response and post-launch stabilization—while delivering roughly 30% gains in retrieval accuracy and latency.”

Director-level Technology Leader specializing in cloud-native platforms, AI/ML, and SaaS

Remote15y exp

“Engineering leader (Director/VP level) who has repeatedly aligned product and engineering through ROI-driven quarterly roadmaps and strong stakeholder communication, including board presentations. Built a parallel cloud team to migrate an on-prem product to the cloud, credited with delivering $9M ARR, and led a Python monolith-to-serverless event-driven microservices transformation. Currently manages distributed teams across Mexico, India, and the US using pod-based structures, clear KPIs, and a supportive accountability culture.”

“Internship experience building an end-to-end medical AI pipeline that extracts and normalizes messy medical PDFs, fine-tunes BioBERT to classify tumor-related statements (including negation/ambiguity handling), and integrates image-model outputs (MedSAM/GroundingDINO) for tumor localization and classification. Also worked on an LLM/RAG system to draft IPO prospectuses using retrieved regulatory/financial sources (including SEC EDGAR) with structured prompts to reduce hallucinations.”

“Built and launched an internal AI troubleshooting assistant focused on safe, retrieval-first root cause analysis for enterprise systems, with strong attention to monitoring, fallback behavior, and post-launch iteration. Also owns full-stack product work across React and Java/Spring Boot, including high-volume financial operations workflows, and reports measurable LLM improvements such as ~30-40% latency reduction.”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in AI, LLM systems, and full-stack development

Stony Brook, NY2y exp

“Product-focused full-stack engineer at startup (Zippy) who shipped a production multi-agent AI system for restaurant operations plus payments workflows. Built end-to-end: RAG grounded on a Notion knowledge base, structured function-calling task routing, FastAPI/JWT multi-tenant backend, and a polished React+TypeScript owner dashboard. Has real production incident experience (duplicate Stripe webhooks) and reports ~94% task-routing accuracy under load.”

“Master’s student and Deep Learning teaching assistant who teaches LLM/VLM fine-tuning (including LoRA) and built a Hugging Face LLM fine-tuned for unit conversion, improving reliability by analyzing synthetic data and filling missing number-system conversion examples. Also implemented the Raft consensus protocol using gRPC in a distributed systems course with correctness validated by unit tests.”

“Full-stack engineer/product owner who built and scaled a customer-facing job application portal (Skillbridge) using TypeScript/React and Spring Boot/MongoDB, optimizing search performance with indexing, caching (Redis), and payload/lazy-loading improvements. Also built an internal AI-driven analytics dashboard for Salesforce operations using OpenAI sentiment analysis, achieving 70% reduction in manual analysis and driving adoption through demos and iterative feedback.”

“Full-stack engineer who built and owned an internal analytics dashboard for sales (React/TypeScript + Node/Express + NoSQL), delivering it two weeks early with zero production issues and a reported 10% sales-efficiency lift. Experienced with microservices and async messaging patterns (retries/DLQs/idempotency), and emphasizes rapid iteration with strong CI/CD and automated testing plus user-driven adoption.”
