Brings strong healthcare-focused GenAI experience across RAG, hybrid retrieval, LoRA fine-tuning, and production Python services, with measurable gains in accuracy, speed, and reliability.”
Kaushik Sriram
Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in event-driven FinTech backend systems
“Senior/Staff-level backend/platform engineer who owned Stripe’s global payout settlement system end-to-end, building an event-driven Python/Kafka platform processing millions of events daily across 30+ countries. Deep experience operating high-reliability distributed systems in production (incidents, replays/backfills, schema evolution, observability) and scaling on AWS/EKS with strong testing and deployment practices.”
Rishi Machanpalli
Intern Software Engineer specializing in AI/ML and platform security
“IAM/platform engineer with experience at DocuSign and Siemens who ships production-grade systems end-to-end: built a secure AWS serverless internal employee-profile API (OAuth2/Cognito/WAF) that cut data retrieval from weeks to near-instant and sustained ~2,800 RPS at ~75 ms. Also delivered production AI workflows, including a GPT-4o + Playwright crypto-scam detection agent and an NLP ticket-routing system improved to ~86.7% accuracy with strong monitoring and incident mitigation practices.”
Srivardhan Kalli
Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and cloud data platforms
“Candidate is a hands-on engineer using AI as a controlled coding partner rather than an autonomous decision-maker.
