Vetted Kanban Professionals

“Built and owned major parts of a real-time distributed AI fraud-detection pipeline (ingestion, inference microservice integration, and automated action layer), optimizing latency and observability and reducing false positives by ~35%. Understands ROS/ROS2 concepts (nodes/topics/services) and planned hands-on ramp-up via ROS2 pub/sub exercises and Gazebo simulation, but has not worked on physical robots or ROS in production.”

Mid-level Java Backend Developer specializing in cloud-native microservices

Sunnyvale, CA5y exp

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer with Walmart experience building and operating high-volume media upload and processing systems. Strong in Java/Spring Boot, Postgres performance tuning (EXPLAIN/ANALYZE), and durable workflows using Kafka/Spring Batch with retries and idempotency, plus production ownership via monitoring and optimization; familiar with Next.js/TypeScript and modern React performance patterns.”

Mid-level Data Engineer specializing in Azure ETL/ELT and data warehousing

Framingham, MA4y exp

“Data engineer who has owned end-to-end production pipelines for customer transaction data (~2–5 GB/day) using Python/PySpark/SQL and Airflow, delivering major reliability and speed gains (70% faster reporting; 60–70% fewer data issues). Also built a daily external web-scraping system with anti-bot handling and safe, idempotent Airflow-driven backfills, plus a Python data API optimized with indexing/caching and tested for correctness.”

“Candidate brings practical GenAI engineering experience with a disciplined approach to AI-assisted development. They have designed lightweight multi-agent workflows for a RAG-based support copilot, including retrieval, relevance validation, response generation, and groundedness checks to reduce hallucinations.”

“Researcher from the University of South Dakota who built a production medical RAG system to help interpret model predictions by retrieving relevant clinical notes and medical literature, overcoming retrieval accuracy and imaging-dataset challenges through semantic chunking and metadata-driven indexing. Also has hands-on orchestration experience with Airflow and Azure Data Factory, plus a pragmatic approach to LLM evaluation and stakeholder-driven iteration.”

“Backend engineer who built and owned an AI-powered SMS survey platform for a nonprofit serving at-risk communities (internet-limited users), using Cloudflare Workers + Twilio and a state-machine survey engine. Scaled it to ~10k active users with near-zero downtime, added English/Spanish support, and iteratively improved LLM behavior (Claude 3.7 Sonnet) to handle nuanced, real-world SMS responses reliably.”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in Java and Angular web applications

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“Full-stack engineer who has owned end-to-end delivery of an internal, customer-facing data visualization product and helped build a data modification pipeline used across the organization for data integrity/governance. Demonstrates pragmatic MVP-driven delivery within sprints and makes performance-oriented architectural decisions (e.g., batching API calls to reduce frontend request volume) in TypeScript/React systems.”

“Analytics-focused candidate with strong SQL, Excel, Python, and Tableau skills who supports payroll-, compensation-, and finance-adjacent processes through rigorous data validation and reconciliation. Stands out for uncovering a duplicate-record mapping issue that exposed roughly $250K in revenue leakage and for building repeatable controls, dashboards, and automated checks to improve reporting accuracy.”

“C-suite operator across multiple private-equity portfolio companies now raising capital for a thesis focused on meeting AI datacenter energy demand via AI-driven monitoring/inspection and condition-based maintenance for nuclear and natural gas generation. Has early traction with PE firms and is engaging target acquisition candidates, aiming to serve as an operating partner or CEO to execute the value-creation plan. Previously delivered a mobile-enabled workflow improvement for mutual fund valuation using HTML5 responsive design and CAB-driven agile development.”

“Frontend-focused engineer operating at a staff level with experience at Amazon and startups, known for rescuing high-impact, frontend-heavy systems through architecture, performance, and quality improvements. Delivered outsized results including cutting load times from ~90s to ~3s, raising test coverage from <1% to >80%, and enabling multi-team adoption of modern state management via training sessions for 50+ engineers.”

“Technology executive (VP/SVP Engineering, CTO/co-founder) with ~17 years of roadmap execution and the last 7 in senior exec roles. Notably led an AI-first strategic pivot when generative AI emerged—creating the AI product strategy, reskilling teams, and shipping initial AI features—while also scaling engineering orgs using SPACE metrics and driving major architecture decisions (custom reporting with React + Redshift) to close competitive gaps.”

“Software engineer with strong end-to-end ownership across frontend, backend, data, and infrastructure, including real-time systems (Kafka/Postgres) and observability (Datadog). Built and productionized an AI-native RAG support assistant (OpenAI embeddings + Pinecone) with prompt/guardrail design, achieving 48% agent adoption and 30% faster responses. Experienced in legacy modernization and reliability work using feature flags, event/transaction replay, and rapid embedded delivery.”

Senior Backend Engineer specializing in real-time data platforms for FinTech and Healthcare

Plano, Texas6y exp

“Backend/data engineer with experience at JPMorgan building near real-time payment risk and fraud scoring pipelines using Python, Spark Structured Streaming, and Delta Lake, emphasizing auditability, security, and data correctness (dedupe/late events) to reduce false positives. Also led a legacy-to-cloud migration of claims/eligibility data at Cogna with parallel runs, phased rollout, and healthcare-specific validation (ICD-CPT mapping).”

Senior Program & Operations Manager specializing in AI, semiconductor NPI, and regulated manufacturing

Palo Alto, CA12y exp

“Operations and customer-facing leader with deep last-mile logistics expertise from running a critical extra-large Amazon logistics hub end-to-end (inventory accuracy, throughput, yard efficiency), including scalable process improvements adopted across Amazon XL sites. Strong cross-functional and partner management (DSPs/carriers, engineering ops) with rapid incident resolution and VOC-to-product translation (geofence/map fixes). Also demonstrates land-and-expand growth motion from Cisco, expanding a standardized software platform across multiple global sites.”

“Full-stack engineer focused on high-throughput document/financial data platforms, building Angular/React front ends and Spring Boot microservices with Python/Flask services for heavy processing. Experienced in designing non-blocking, asynchronous workflows (Celery/RabbitMQ) and deploying containerized systems to AWS ECS with auto-scaling and CloudWatch monitoring.”
