Senior Java Full-Stack Developer specializing in microservices and cloud platforms

5y exp

“Frontend engineer who has led enterprise-scale UI delivery end-to-end on a microservices platform, designing modular Angular SPAs (v12-17) tightly aligned to Spring Boot REST APIs. Emphasizes quality and release velocity through layered testing (Karma/Jasmine), CI/CD automation (Jenkins/Azure DevOps), performance tuning with RxJS/lazy loading, and incremental rollouts with close product/design/QA collaboration.”

“Full-stack product engineer who owned a live-events digital ticketing platform end-to-end, including blockchain-based ticket validation and high-traffic booking flows. Stands out for combining Angular/React frontend work with Java/Spring Boot backend architecture, plus strong production reliability practices around concurrency control, queues, observability, and UX optimization.”

“Backend/AI engineer who built a Spring Boot timesheet API on AWS (Postgres, Docker, Nginx) used by hundreds of daily users and resolved severe deadline-driven latency/5XX incidents via query optimization, connection pool tuning, and Redis caching. Also shipped application-layer LLM features (Mistral + LangChain chatbot) and designed a Planner/Executor/Verifier troubleshooting agent with verification-based guardrails to prevent hallucinated root-cause analyses.”

“Software engineer with payments-domain experience (Visa) building real-time transaction monitoring and analytics systems. Strong end-to-end ownership across Spring Boot/Kafka microservices, PostgreSQL modeling, and AWS/Kubernetes operations, plus React+TypeScript dashboards—focused on low-latency processing, secure APIs, and zero-downtime production releases.”

“Banking-focused full-stack engineer who has owned products from requirements through deployment, including a transaction review dashboard and an AI-assisted search tool for internal support teams. Brings a strong mix of React/TypeScript, Spring Boot, database performance tuning, and practical LLM/RAG experience with human-in-the-loop safeguards for regulated workflows.”

“Backend/microservices engineer who built a Python (Flask/MySQL) data-processing microservice for an internal analytics platform and improved slow responses via query optimization and caching. Has hands-on Kubernetes experience on AWS EKS with GitLab CI/CD, plus GitOps workflows using Helm and ArgoCD. Also built a real-time Kafka order-event pipeline and supported a cloud-to-on-prem migration with standardized, containerized configuration and gradual traffic cutover.”

“AI engineer with hands-on production experience building an end-to-end RAG system that reduced document-answering time from hours to minutes, improving accuracy through chunk overlap and hybrid BM25+semantic retrieval. Also built a LangGraph-based agent that researches company financial news via web search (Google Serper), using Pydantic structured outputs and checkpointing for reliability; experienced collaborating with non-technical stakeholders at JPMC and communicating ROI.”

“Backend/platform engineer with production ownership of high-volume transaction analytics and fraud monitoring services built in Java/Spring Boot. Has scaled data processing platforms (including healthcare datasets) and operated Kafka-based event pipelines with schema versioning, deduplication, and replay/backfill workflows, using strong observability via CloudWatch/Grafana and CI/CD with Jenkins.”

“Data engineer (Charles Schwab) who took ownership of an unstable, ambiguous nightly financial data pipeline and rebuilt it into a reliable, incremental AWS Glue/Airflow/Redshift system feeding Power BI. Created a custom Python data-quality framework with hard-stop gating and schema drift detection, improving integrity (99.9%), cutting runtime (~20%), and reducing incidents/tickets (35% fewer schema-related dashboard incidents; 30% fewer investigations).”

Denton, TX8y exp

“Machine Learning Engineer currently at Webster Bank building an enterprise-scale LLM agent for Temenos Journey Manager/Maestro, using RAG-style multi-stage retrieval with FAISS/Pinecone, hybrid dense+sparse search, and LoRA fine-tuning optimized via NDCG/MAP and A/B testing. Previously handled messy incident/telemetry data at Deuta Werke GmbH with deterministic + fuzzy entity resolution, and has strong production data engineering experience across Spark/Hadoop and Python ETL systems.”

West Haven, CT4y exp

“Backend/full-stack engineer with hands-on experience building enterprise-scale real-time log analysis platforms using Spring Boot, Kafka, React, and observability tooling. Stands out for using AI tools heavily but responsibly—treating them as accelerators while relying on rigorous testing, architectural review, retry/DLQ patterns, and monitoring to ensure production reliability.”

“Data/analytics-focused engineer who builds end-to-end KPI reporting and validation products used daily by plant leads and leadership to track yield, downtime, and defects. Combines Python/SQL + Power BI data pipelines with strong data-quality practices (automated validation, monitoring/alerts) and has experience designing scalable frontend architecture in TypeScript/React and working in distributed/microservices-style data systems.”

Ohio, United States3y exp

“Backend/platform engineer who has owned a real-time business analytics dashboard backend (Python/Flask/MongoDB) and built Kafka event-streaming pipelines with idempotent processing and DLQs. Strong DevOps/GitOps experience deploying containerized microservices to AWS EKS with CI/CD (Jenkins/GitHub Actions/CodePipeline) and ArgoCD auto-sync/drift detection, plus hands-on support for phased hybrid cloud/on-prem migrations using feature flags and replication.”
