Vetted Linux Professionals

“Built and deployed a production GenAI resume screening and matching system for Florida Atlantic University, focused on improving recruiter efficiency and search relevance. Demonstrates strong RAG engineering (embeddings, query rewriting, metadata filtering, threshold tuning) plus practical reliability work (grounding constraints, fallbacks, and evaluation using real user queries) using Python REST APIs and orchestration frameworks like LangChain and LlamaIndex.”

“Full-stack TypeScript/React/Next.js builder who created an end-to-end customer-facing product (AI Job Master) that generates personalized outreach from resumes and job descriptions. Demonstrates strong product + engineering ownership with rapid MVP iteration, instrumentation-driven prioritization, and pragmatic reliability patterns (microservices, queues, correlation IDs, retries) while tackling a key AI challenge: user trust and output consistency.”

“Full-stack engineer with recent enterprise experience building Spring Boot/Spring Cloud microservices on AWS (Lambda, S3, DynamoDB) and a React/TypeScript frontend. Has hands-on experience solving microservice communication timeouts via API Gateway/load balancing and implementing centralized JWT-based security, plus performance work for large data workloads using indexing, caching, and async processing.”

“Early-career engineer who built a self-directed production-grade security scanning/analysis pipeline that normalizes multi-scanner results, correlates CVEs, and uses an LLM to generate exploit hypotheses—then hardened it for real-world reliability (timeouts, confidence scoring, feature flags, graceful degradation). Also integrated a real-time audio ML model into Discord/Zoom and debugged intermittent latency/dropouts across Python inference, virtual audio drivers, and network jitter; experienced with IAM integrations (Entra ID/Salesforce) and cloud tooling (AWS/Docker/Kubernetes).”

“Built and deployed an LLM-to-SQL automation system in a closed/internal environment, using a retriever–reranker–validator architecture on Kubernetes with strong security controls (semantic + rule-based validation and RBAC), achieving 99% uptime and cutting manual query time ~40%. Also worked on genomic sequence classification and semantic search workflows, orchestrating data prep with Airflow, tracking/deploying with MLflow, and optimizing distributed multi-GPU training on a university Kubernetes cluster.”

“Founding Robotics Research Engineer at Streamline Robotics building precision-agriculture automation: integrated FANUC + PLC harvesting with a Farm-ng Amiga (Jetson) platform using ROS2 Visual SLAM for GPS-free greenhouse navigation. Developed real-time YOLOv8 tomato detection/ripeness estimation for selective harvest and configured Cognex D900 3D inspection, plus redesigned FarmBot Genesis XL and built an automated imaging/labeling pipeline for growth tracking and adaptive watering.”

“Backend/Python engineer focused on real-time sensor/IoT analytics: built dashboards and a high-throughput ingestion pipeline (MQTT -> Python worker -> TimescaleDB) with buffering, batch inserts, and validation. Strong Kubernetes + GitOps practitioner (Dockerized microservices, HPA, probes, ArgoCD) who has handled production incidents like CrashLoopBackOff under peak load and supported an on-prem analytics migration to AWS using shadow traffic and rollback plans.”

“Built and productionized a RAG-based semantic search system for video-derived data, focusing on measurable success metrics (p95 latency, reliability, cost/request) and strong observability (prompt versions, retrieved docs, tool calls, token usage). Experienced in diagnosing real-time issues in LLM/agentic workflows and in supporting go-to-market efforts through tailored technical demos, rapid POCs, and post-close onboarding.”

“Backend/platform engineer in fintech/payments (NexaBank/NextBank/Nexon Bank) who has built Kafka-orchestrated Java/Spring Boot microservices around a PostgreSQL double-entry ledger. Led production-critical reliability work preventing duplicate payment postings via idempotency and offset sequencing fixes, and shipped real-time ML fraud scoring (Python model API + Redis caching) with rigorous evaluation/monitoring (Prometheus) and workflow automation for dispute resolution.”

“Backend/data engineer who built a production analytics data service (Python/FastAPI on AWS/Postgres with PySpark ETL) handling millions of records per day and drove major latency improvements (10–15s to <2s) via indexing, Redis caching, and shifting aggregations into ETL. Also shipped an LLM-based natural-language-to-SQL assistant end-to-end with strong guardrails (schema restrictions, read-only validation, RBAC, masking) and designed a multi-step agent workflow with verification and fallback logic.”

“Built and owned a production RAG search/Q&A platform at Data Integrity First for a client with a large, hard-to-search document library, deployed on AWS. Drove major adoption gains by adding source attribution (users trusted answers more) and improved system performance with guardrails, logging, and iterative chunking/OCR normalization—cutting fallback rate from ~22% to under 10%.”

“Bootstrapped founder with a technical background who has already built an MVP SaaS loyalty and referral platform plus a tablet/mobile POS companion product, leveraging Azure and Google Cloud support rather than outside capital. Focused on learning-by-building, resource-efficient execution, and forming highly motivated, equity-aligned teams.”
