“Full-stack engineer who built a checklist configuration/task execution system using Next.js App Router + TypeScript, with a React Native app consuming the execution UI via WebView. Was the only full-stack developer at a very small startup (CTO/CFO/CEO team), owning feature delivery plus client-facing on-call debugging, and has hands-on Postgres modeling and query optimization experience.”

“Backend/infra-focused engineer who owned production systems for distributed ML experimentation (hyperparameter tuning across a cluster with GPU scaling, custom scheduling, and checkpoint-based fault tolerance). Also built and operated a low-latency log validation service using queued async workflows with idempotency, retries/backoff, and strong observability, plus experience building resilient Selenium-based browser automations for complex multi-step web flows.”

“India-based engineering leader/player-coach managing ~20 people and three products, while still shipping hands-on in Python/Golang across 8–10 microservices deployed on GCP (Kubernetes) and AWS (ECS). Has led end-to-end delivery (design through QA) and owned production reliability improvements (including building a Slack alerting bot). Strong domain exposure in utilities (MDM/meter readings, billing/rate calculations) and financial integrations (GL code tagging), plus side projects in Golang around LLM API cost-optimization.”

“JavaScript engineer with open-source experience on a database visualization library, focused on real-time rendering performance for large datasets (virtualized DOM rendering, requestAnimationFrame/debouncing, memoization) and on raising project quality via tests and CI performance benchmarks. Also built Kafka-based messaging documentation and sample producer/consumer apps to speed onboarding, and has experience diagnosing production issues including concurrency-related duplicate data problems.”
