Principal Software Engineer specializing in MongoDB and Java platforms

San Mateo, CA10y exp

“Government and defense software architect with a track record of building mission-critical systems from prototype to long-lived production. Most notably designed Banyan at Fort Meade, a federated SOA platform that achieved 99.9999 uptime and handled 3.2 million daily queries, and later built SBOM automation at Lockheed Martin that was contributed back to the CycloneDX open source ecosystem.”

“Built production AI systems for Macy's and Bloomingdale's, including an embeddings-based pipeline to clean trending search queries and an end-to-end 'Ask Macy's' multi-agent chat experience. Brings hands-on experience with real-world agent orchestration, tool integration, quality evaluation, and business-facing safeguards in a large-scale e-commerce environment.”

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.”

“Backend engineer who shipped a Spring Boot transactions/points feature while using AI selectively for boilerplate and test ideas, keeping core system design decisions in human hands. Stands out for rigorous validation of AI output against database behavior, concurrency, idempotency, and failure scenarios, and has also built a lightweight planner -> code gen -> validator agent-style pipeline with step-level logging and retries.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience spanning AI-powered product features and healthcare fraud detection systems. Has built end-to-end LLM-enabled applications, customer-facing recommendation systems at scale, and operational platforms that improved real-time investigations and flagged over 1,200 high-risk cases quarterly.”

“Full-stack and AI product engineer with strong AWS/Snowflake experience who built an internal feature flag platform and helped migrate a cybersecurity insights product into a multi-agent AI chat interface. They report production scale of 1M+ embeddings and 50k+ monthly queries, with outcomes including an 80% reduction in analyst work and dashboard generation in 7 minutes; the work was also featured by Claude and AWS.”

“Software engineer/product owner experience at UnitedHealth Group owning a high-volume claims eligibility console end-to-end (React/TypeScript + Spring Boot microservices) processing 1M+ transactions/day. Strong in event-driven architecture (Kafka/RabbitMQ), HIPAA-aligned security (OAuth/JWT/RBAC), and building internal observability tools that improve incident triage and production reliability.”

“Full-stack engineer with production experience building Java 17 Spring Boot microservices for high-traffic systems at Verizon and on a JPMC payments platform (funds transfer/validation using ISO 20022), plus modern React/TypeScript dashboards for ops and analytics. Demonstrates strong scalability and reliability chops (Kafka event-driven pipelines, Redis caching, clustering, BullMQ background jobs) and has built real-time apps end-to-end with secure JWT refresh-token auth and Socket.io performance tuning.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer with finance domain experience (State Street) who built and shipped a Kafka-based real-time trade validation system handling 50k+ trades/sec and cut latency by 42%. Also delivered real-time React dashboards (Redux Toolkit/React Query/WebSockets) and operates AWS EKS microservices with GitOps/ArgoCD; has built a FastAPI + LangChain/GPT-4 intelligent document processing service with JWT/RBAC.”

“Full-stack engineer with ~3.5 years of Java Spring Boot and React experience who built an end-to-end banking transaction platform using microservices, Kafka streaming, AWS RDS, and Dockerized CI/CD. Demonstrates strong performance and reliability engineering (async processing, DLQ/retries, idempotency, caching) plus secure cloud deployment practices; has also worked across banking, healthcare, and insurance domains.”

“Full-stack engineer with hands-on ownership of real-time, Kafka-driven systems in production, spanning React/TypeScript frontends, Spring Boot/Node backends, and AWS (EKS/ECS/EC2) operations. Notable for modernizing legacy batch workflows into event-driven architectures with measurable impact (35% faster risk calculations, 30% better accuracy) and scaling to 2x volume using reliability patterns like idempotency, retries, and staged rollouts.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Developer specializing in FinTech platforms and cloud-native microservices

Texas, USA6y exp

“Backend/platform-focused Python engineer who has owned FastAPI services with Postgres/SQLAlchemy and production-grade auth (JWT + RBAC). Experienced deploying and operating microservices on Kubernetes with GitOps (ArgoCD), HPA tuning, and Prometheus/Grafana monitoring, plus hands-on cloud-to-on-prem migrations and Kafka-based real-time streaming pipelines.”

Mahesh Kota

Screened

Mid-level Full-Stack Java Developer specializing in cloud-native FinTech and Healthcare platforms

New York, NY5y exp

“Backend engineer with production experience building and scaling a Java/Spring Boot payment processing API on AWS (PostgreSQL/Redis) handling a few thousand RPS, including deep performance debugging (connection exhaustion) and observability (CloudWatch, Actuator, Zipkin). Also shipped application-layer AI features (OpenAI email summarizer with feedback loop, ~40% faster agent response times) and designed reliable multi-step workflow orchestration with retries and manual escalation, plus strong SQL tuning and Python engineering practices.”

Mid-level Java Full-Stack Engineer specializing in healthcare and enterprise microservices

Birmingham, AL6y exp

“Developer who actively integrates AI tools like Copilot, ChatGPT, and Cursor into day-to-day coding, testing, debugging, and framework learning to improve delivery speed. They also organize multi-agent workflows across code generation, review, testing, and documentation while retaining final ownership of quality and architecture decisions.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer who has owned production retail and order/inventory systems end-to-end, using Spring Boot microservices with Kafka event-driven workflows. Strong in production correctness patterns (idempotency, retries/DLQs, schema versioning) plus observability (Prometheus/Grafana) and developer-facing API design (Swagger, OAuth2/JWT, versioning/deprecation). Also built TypeScript/React SPAs and cited ~40% UI performance improvement.”
