Vetted Incident Response Professionals

“Data engineer at Plaid who built greenfield, end-to-end real-time transaction pipelines and FastAPI data services for fraud detection and analytics, handling millions of events per day. Strong focus on reliability and data integrity via Great Expectations validation, Airflow-based monitoring/SLAs, quarantine/staging patterns, and robust external data ingestion with schema versioning and backfills (reported 50% fewer anomalies and ~40% fewer failures).”

“LLM infrastructure engineer who built a production-critical real-time personalization and memory retrieval system for a user-facing product, adding <100ms P99 latency while improving relevance ~20–25% and holding SLA through 3x traffic. Experienced designing tiered retrieval backends (Redis + vector store), deploying on Kubernetes with autoscaling/circuit breakers, and running rigorous observability, incident response, and agent evaluation (shadow traffic, A/B tests, regression/replay).”

“Full-stack engineer with strong AI systems and B2B SaaS experience across BrightOps, Zapier, Nordstrom, and Calendly. They’ve owned architecture for an AI-powered tutoring platform, improved retrieval quality with a hybrid vector-plus-keyword approach, and built Go services processing over 1 million student events per day. Particularly compelling for teams building data-intensive, reliability-critical products with LLM, workflow automation, or compliance-oriented use cases.”
