Vetted GitHub Copilot Professionals

“Unity developer with hands-on VR experience focused on “game feel,” enhancing immersion by adding touch-reactive visuals, custom haptics, and spatialized binaural interaction audio in collaboration with an audio team. Has recent multiplayer experience using Unity Netcode and uses AI tools for code review and rapid upskilling (e.g., reactive programming). Seeking a fully remote role with compensation around €60–70k.”

“Engineering leader who drove TiVo IPTV’s client-facing API modernization from a monolith to AWS-based microservices (API Gateway, Lambda, EKS, Kafka, DynamoDB/RDS), including phased/blue-green production routing of millions of calls. Emphasizes org scaling through skill-based hiring, mentorship, and a you-build-you-run ownership culture, while balancing technical leadership with executive stakeholder communication and budgeting.”

“Full-stack engineer who built and owned a production real-estate search platform (advanced search + saved-search alerts) using Next.js App Router/TypeScript with a NestJS + Postgres + Elasticsearch/Kafka backend. Demonstrated strong performance engineering (map search FPS ~20→60, ~80% latency reduction) and backend scalability (optimized alert-matching queries and orchestrated notification workflows with Airflow/Redis), with measurable post-launch engagement gains (+27% returning users).”

“Full-stack engineer with experience spanning Amazon IMDb and Northeastern’s NeuroJSON portal, combining consumer product work with complex scientific data applications. Built IMDb’s streaming providers feature—described as the company’s most impactful feature of 2023—and has hands-on experience with React/Angular, GraphQL, AWS, Python services, and production monitoring.”

“AI/LLM engineer at Capital One who deployed a production RAG-powered fraud analysis and document intelligence platform using LangChain, OpenAI, Pinecone, Kafka, and AWS. Focused on reliability in real-time investigations via hybrid retrieval, schema-validated outputs, and LLM verification loops, reporting review-time reduction from hours to minutes and ~99% fraud detection precision.”

“AppSec-focused customer advisor with hands-on experience integrating SAST/DAST/SCA into production CI/CD (Azure DevOps) and designing secure agent/scanning deployments in AWS (least-privilege IAM, private subnets, VPC endpoints). Demonstrates strong incident troubleshooting using logs/metrics/traces to diagnose load-related failures (timeouts/retry storms) and drive durable fixes, while tailoring risk/tradeoff communication across engineering, security, and leadership stakeholders.”

“Full-stack engineer building real-time internal banking operations dashboards (Java/Spring Boot microservices + React/TypeScript) with Kafka-based streaming and post-launch performance optimizations. Also shipped a production internal AI support assistant using RAG (Confluence/PDF/support docs ingestion, embeddings + vector DB retrieval) with guardrails, evaluation loops, and observability to reduce hallucinations and prevent regressions.”

“Product-minded software engineer from Gusto who has shipped internal AI agent capabilities and end-to-end user-facing features across frontend and backend. Stands out for making pragmatic architecture tradeoffs—moving from OpenAI prototypes to deterministic systems when accuracy, latency, and uptime mattered—while still improving LLM workflow quality and reducing tool-calling errors by 15%.”

“Built AI-powered natural language search and summarization features for internal financial platforms at JPMorgan, with a strong focus on trust, compliance, auditability, and failure handling. Stands out for treating AI as one component in a larger enterprise system rather than a magic layer, and for combining hands-on LLM integration experience with thoughtful agent architecture and validation design.”

“Unity VR/MR developer with multiple shipped Meta Quest projects, including a multi-user mixed-reality co-creation experience featuring real-time connection logic and shader-driven mesh generation for performance. Also builds AI-powered interactive applications, recently creating a video interview simulator using OpenAI API, HeyGen real-time avatars, and AWS audio/agent tooling while managing end-to-end latency challenges.”
