Staff RPA & Automation Engineer specializing in Financial Services

Baton Rouge, LA11y exp

“Blue Prism RPA developer in a small FinTech-aligned team who owned ~20 production bots and drove both delivery and reliability. Built a shared VDI/locking design that cut infrastructure cost ~20–30% and routinely handled ServiceNow-driven production incidents end-to-end, including hotfixes and longer-term SDLC fixes. Also acted as a player-coach, training junior hires and maintaining high bot success rates (up to 99% within SLA).”

Lawrence Prabhakar

Screened

Mid-level Full-Stack Java Developer specializing in FinTech

USA5y exp

“Engineer with a thoughtful, hands-on approach to AI-assisted software development, treating AI as a force multiplier for debugging, prototyping, and large-codebase work rather than a substitute for judgment. Particularly strong in multi-agent coding workflows, contract-driven development, and maintaining consistency across backend, frontend, and testing through shared schemas and OpenAPI-based coordination.”

Aniket Dhanawade

Screened

Mid-level Full-Stack Engineer specializing in cloud-native and AI-powered applications

USA3y exp

“Candidate has a thoughtful, hands-on approach to AI-assisted software development, treating AI as a pair programmer while retaining ownership of architecture, tradeoffs, and final code quality. They have practical experience using multi-agent workflows to ship small features end-to-end, including planning, execution, and gap detection under human oversight.”

“Backend engineer who optimized an AI-driven portfolio analytics/insights platform at Fidelity, addressing latency and traffic growth by moving services toward microservices, improving service communication, and tuning API/DB performance. Experienced scaling Python/FastAPI services with Docker + Kubernetes autoscaling, and strengthening security/privacy for sensitive client portfolio data used in LLM-based reporting.”

“Full-stack engineer with financial services experience (Lincoln Financial) who owned a customer-facing financial portal end-to-end using TypeScript/React and Node/Express. Has hands-on microservices and RabbitMQ event-driven workflows, addressing scale issues like retries/duplicates with idempotency and traceable logging, and built an internal real-time ops/support dashboard to improve monitoring and incident response.”

“Built production LLM/RAG platforms for financial services to enable natural-language Q&A over large policy/compliance document sets stored in Snowflake and SharePoint. Strong in MLOps and orchestration (Airflow, ADF, Step Functions, MLflow) and in solving real production issues like stale embeddings and model performance, including an incremental Snowflake Streams sync that cut processing time from hours to minutes.”

“Built a production internal LLM/RAG assistant at CVS Health to cut time spent searching long policy and clinical guideline PDFs, combining fine-tuned BERT/GPT models with FAISS retrieval and a FastAPI service on AWS. Demonstrates strong real-world reliability work (document cleanup, hallucination controls, monitoring/drift tracking with MLflow) and close collaboration with non-technical clinical operations teams via demos and feedback-driven iteration.”

“ML/NLP practitioner focused on financial-services document intelligence and compliance workflows—built an end-to-end pipeline to classify documents and extract financial entities from loan applications, emails, and statements stored in S3/internal databases. Strong in entity resolution/record linkage and in productionizing pipelines with GitHub Actions CI/CD, testing, data validation, and Docker, plus semantic search using OpenAI embeddings and a vector database.”

“ML/NLP practitioner with banking experience (M&T Bank) who has built a GPT-4 RAG system using LangChain and Pinecone to connect unstructured customer data with internal knowledge bases, improving accuracy and reducing manual lookup time by 50%+. Strong in entity resolution and productionizing scalable Python data workflows, including major performance wins by migrating bottleneck joins from Pandas to Dask.”
