Vetted Gradle Professionals

“Full-stack engineer with 3+ years using Java/Spring Boot (Citi) and React, who built a production observability dashboard monitoring 53 microservices across 17 clusters with real-time health/latency tracing and significant performance improvements (cut load time from ~10s). Also designed a serverless AWS face-recognition system (Lambda/S3/SQS) built to handle burst traffic (~1000 concurrent requests), demonstrating strength in scalable, event-driven architectures.”

“Engineering leader/CTO-type with deep experience building and scaling a vehicle routing platform at Transdev On Demand, including a nationwide rollout to 22 US airports ahead of schedule. Drove engineering best practices (CI/CD, high test coverage, pair programming, automated deployments) and led a multi-tenant architectural upgrade to expand the routing engine to additional business lines and external customers.”

Paducah, KY4y exp

“Software engineer at Capital One who owned and shipped AI-driven personalization and internal insights dashboards end-to-end, emphasizing fast iteration with feature flags and tight user feedback loops. Built a TypeScript/React + Spring Boot/Python document automation platform with compute-heavy NLP microservices, async workflows, and production-scale reliability/performance practices (Kafka/RabbitMQ-style queues, Redis caching, tracing).”

Staff DevOps/SRE Engineer specializing in AWS, Kubernetes, and GitOps

San Jose, CA24y exp

“Infrastructure-focused engineer with Vonage experience modernizing early-stage cloud architecture (Terraform modularization, blue-green deployments, containerization, and zero-downtime database migration planning to Aurora). Also built a local end-to-end side project, Vastu AI, combining a custom-trained YOLO model (Roboflow-labeled data) with a locally hosted LLM via Ollama to generate a vastu compliance report from floor-plan images.”

“Product-minded full-stack engineer with experience shipping engagement features and core communication systems at DribbleUp and Expys. Stands out for combining rapid MVP execution with rigorous iteration: delivered a leaderboard feature that lifted engagement by 8% initially and 20% overall, built a chat MVP in 3 days, and has hands-on experience deploying LangChain-based concierge agents with evals and human review.”

“Software engineer with Capital One experience contributing to shared internal “open-source style” JavaScript/React/TypeScript libraries (component library and hooks/utilities). Drove measurable performance gains (~25% improvement) by refactoring hooks to prevent unnecessary re-renders, and improved adoption via stronger documentation, testing (Jest), semver discipline, and code review/PR workflows; also stabilized a backend service by adding monitoring and automated tests in an unstructured project.”

“Backend/DevOps-focused engineer with healthcare and financial systems experience, including an ICU readmission risk platform delivering real-time ML scores via a secure FastAPI service (PyTorch model serving, PostgreSQL, Celery/Redis) deployed on AWS with strong observability. Has hands-on Kubernetes GitOps delivery (Helm, ArgoCD, HPA) and has supported a JPMC on-prem-to-AWS microservices migration using phased validation and blue-green cutovers, plus Kafka/Avro streaming for real-time transaction processing.”

“Built and shipped production LLM/RAG systems at Mayo Clinic, including a conversational AI assistant for patient pre-consultation and a clinical-trial matching tool for doctors. Implemented HIPAA-compliant de-identification and guardrails, plus real-time feedback logging and fine-tuning that improved response accuracy by 15% and reduced admin workload by 25%.”

“Infrastructure/operations engineer with deep IBM Power/AIX experience (AIX 7.x, VIOS, HMC/vHMC) managing ~15–25 LPARs across production and DR, including live DLPAR changes and structured performance troubleshooting. Also hands-on with PowerHA/HACMP incident recovery and failover testing, plus broader DevOps delivery building Jenkins CI/CD for containerized microservices and Terraform/Ansible IaC across AWS and Azure, and leading Solaris SPARC to x86 migration cutovers.”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in applied AI and audio ML

Evanston, IL2y exp

“Engineer with unusually mature experience leading AI-assisted development, including orchestrating multiple coding agents across a data pipeline feature as if managing a small engineering team. Stands out for balancing aggressive adoption of AI tools with disciplined judgment around architecture, security, and merge quality, and for translating that experience into stronger tech leadership.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM feature that converts natural-language search requests into Lucene queries for OpenSearch-backed device event data, improving usability for non-technical users. Brings hands-on experience across the full stack of agentic systems: model training, FastAPI/React integration, Kubernetes deployment on AWS, event-driven orchestration with NATS/Kafka, and production-grade evaluation/observability.”

“Full-stack engineer who has owned an AI-powered HTTP monitoring dashboard end to end, from Node.js/MongoDB backend and dashboard UI through deployment and reliability controls. Particularly strong in turning raw technical signals into usable AI-assisted product experiences, with concrete impact including ~60% faster anomaly detection and meaningful AI cost optimization.”

Phoenix, AZ5y exp

“AI/LLM engineer who has shipped a production document-intelligence agent that automated internal support workflows using RAG, tool calling, and robust fallback controls. Stands out for combining hands-on architecture with measurable business impact: 85% faster query resolution, 35% lower LLM cost, 40% fewer LLM calls, and enough automation to avoid adding 2-3 support engineers.”

“Full-stack engineer focused on high-throughput document/financial data platforms, building Angular/React front ends and Spring Boot microservices with Python/Flask services for heavy processing. Experienced in designing non-blocking, asynchronous workflows (Celery/RabbitMQ) and deploying containerized systems to AWS ECS with auto-scaling and CloudWatch monitoring.”

New City, NY13y exp

“IBM Power/AIX engineer with hands-on ownership of large AIX 7.1/7.2 environments (VIOS, HMC/vHMC) supporting enterprise middleware/back-end workloads. Demonstrated real production incident handling: identified CPU entitlement underprovisioning after a DLPAR change and restored performance via live CPU rebalancing, plus PowerHA failover execution and runbook/process hardening. Also builds secure CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins/GitLab/Azure DevOps with CyberArk) and Terraform IaC with drift management and controlled rollouts.”
