Vetted JavaScript Professionals

“Engineering leader and former CTO/Disney|ABC engineering manager who built white-label mobile app architecture that supported a branded app and successful exit, and later scaled Disney Channel brand app teams across iOS/Android/web and major OTT platforms. Led kid-safety architecture for DisneyNOW (“Junior mode” with PIN) and partnered with product/legal on COPPA compliance, emphasizing maintainable tech choices and strong execution processes.”

“Backend/ML platform engineer from Snapsheet who owned production Python services and data pipelines for insurance claims, including an AI document classification/summarization FastAPI service on ECS/Fargate processing 1M+ documents/year. Strong in AWS infrastructure (Terraform, CI/CD, secrets/IAM, autoscaling), Glue/PySpark ETL with schema evolution controls, and legacy SAS-to-microservices modernization with safe, feature-flagged rollouts and measurable performance wins.”

“Backend/data engineer with experience at Nike building high-volume order orchestration and validation APIs using FastAPI microservices on AWS EKS with Kafka, Redis, and Postgres. Strong in production reliability (timeouts/retries/idempotency), GitOps (Argo CD) + Terraform deployments, and data pipelines (AWS Glue/S3), with hands-on incident ownership and legacy modernization into API-driven services.”

“Engineering leader who built and delivered an IoT smart-spaces platform for the self-storage and smart-living domains, translating customer requirements into architecture, capability maps, and a multi-milestone roadmap. Personally stood up missing AI/ML capabilities (including churn prediction) using Databricks (Delta Lake/MLflow), enabling follow-on features like energy optimization and security/anomaly detection. Scaled an org from 20 to 80+ with disciplined Agile planning (Jira Advanced Roadmaps/Confluence) and strong executive/customer-facing leadership during high-stakes customer commitments.”

“ML/NLP leader with 12+ years of impact across LinkedIn, TikTok, and Levi's, building and productionizing multimodal recommendation and embedding-based search systems. Deep experience in entity resolution, vector retrieval, and rigorous evaluation, with cloud-native deployment/monitoring (MLflow, Airflow, SageMaker/Lambda, Azure ML, Kubernetes) and demonstrated double-digit relevance gains at millions-of-users scale.”

“LLMOps-focused technical leader who took an LLM use case from prototype to production for a non-technical customer by combining trust-building and structured enablement with a robust AWS/Kubernetes-based MLOps stack. Built observability and rollback mechanisms (Grafana + MLflow) to troubleshoot in real time, and scaled delivery by hiring a 5-person team while partnering with sales to manage expectations and drive adoption across departments.”

“Player-coach engineering leader focused on scalable data security scanning and risk detection in hybrid cloud, owning architecture and core implementation of an incremental/parallel DSPM scanning engine. Shipped production improvements including 60% lower scan latency and 30% fewer false positives, with strong emphasis on correctness under concurrency, multi-tenant observability (SLOs/burn-rate alerts), and disciplined rollout practices (feature flags, shadow scans, canaries).”

“Technology transformation leader who builds board-approved roadmaps and scales engineering orgs with strong Agile execution. Led large modernization efforts (e.g., Scottrade: 3,000 programs/4M LOC in 18 months) and scaled POCs into enterprise SaaS platforms using Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, and Terraform for high-concurrency workloads.”

“Engineering leader/player-coach with recent hands-on work delivering an agentic AI MVP on Amazon Bedrock (conversational UI + supervisor agent routing between internal knowledge and external sources). Previously drove large-scale data platform cost optimization at Twitter, saving ~$3M–$5M annually, and has owned production incidents end-to-end with a focus on analytics/monitoring improvements and team coaching.”

“Amazon engineer/leader who drove a major modernization of the AWS Database Migration Service Console, migrating a monolithic UI to a micro-frontend architecture while improving performance, reliability, and engineering standards. Operates as a player-coach (80/20 hands-on/management), with demonstrated incident ownership and process improvements across Amazon and Walmart Labs.”

“Engineering/product leader with repeated experience defining roadmaps and delivering platform migrations across SaaS and enterprise contexts. Scaled an education system from two districts to 2M+ students statewide, and led an Elasticsearch-based architecture for an internal Disney product serving ~100K employees. Known for rigorous execution (RAID/OKRs/sprints), strong stakeholder communication (weekly AI summaries), and empowering teams via end-to-end ownership and customer-connected development.”

“Seasoned business leader with decades of leadership experience (including Fortune 50/500) and prior Silicon Valley startup exposure, now pursuing entrepreneurship. Building “Datascension,” a gamified, story/episode-based career coaching platform that includes hands-on tasks (e.g., SQL queries, Python scripts) plus a participation-based credit/currency system and certification/badging, informed by feedback from recruiters and coaching/recruiting firms.”
