Vetted Load Testing Professionals

“AI Software Engineer (student employee) at University of Washington IT who helped deploy "Purple," a governed, explainable LLM platform on Azure used by 100,000+ students/faculty/staff. Independently led scalable reliability efforts by building automated agent quality/load/red-team testing and CI/CD health validation (Playwright/Node.js, Azure DevOps), and previously built an explainable AI scheduling assistant for clinical operations at Proliance Surgeons.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in event technology and interactive systems

New York, NY20y exp

“Full-stack product engineer in event tech who has owned AI-powered web products from architecture to live production, including a no-code SaaS/marketplace for event activations and real-time AI kiosk experiences. Particularly strong in building for non-technical users in high-stakes live environments, with hands-on experience across Vue/Laravel, LLM workflows, image generation pipelines, and operational reliability.”

“Software engineer with hands-on experience shipping production AI agents and end-to-end ecommerce workflows. They built a customer support automation agent with strong guardrails and evaluation practices, then improved it post-launch using real user data to cut latency ~30% and token cost ~25%. Also drove a zero-to-one self-serve order modification product across React UI, backend services, and cross-functional alignment.”

“Early-career engineer who built and launched a zero-to-one AI-driven approval workflow at SDSU that is used daily by roughly 2,000 university users. They owned the system end-to-end—from FastAPI/PostgreSQL backend to React UI—and showed strong judgment around LLM reliability, using a two-step pipeline, validation checks, and human-review fallbacks to cut manual processing time by about 80%.”

“Frontend engineer who led an enterprise customer-facing analytics dashboard end-to-end, handling complex visualizations, real-time updates, and high-performance requirements. Demonstrates strong architecture and scale practices across React/TypeScript, Redux Toolkit/RTK Query, GraphQL, and performance techniques like virtualization and code-splitting, plus disciplined QA/rollout with feature flags, Cypress, Sentry/New Relic, and Lighthouse.”

“Infrastructure security/DevSecOps engineer who led security and automation patterns during a large Azure migration (30+ legacy apps, wave-based execution), enforcing zero-trust controls by baking CrowdStrike/Illumio into golden images and adding CI/CD security gates. Experienced integrating GitLab runners and Terraform agents as containerized services with strong secrets management (Azure Key Vault) and disciplined image/versioning practices, and has hands-on troubleshooting of ACI runtime constraints under load.”

“Cloud/ML engineer with production deployment experience on Azure (Dockerized models, managed APIs, data pipelines) who has repeatedly stabilized unreliable systems—e.g., taking an API-driven analytics pipeline from ~60% to 98% reliability and an Azure ML service from ~80% to 97% by addressing rate limits, container memory, and gateway timeouts. Also built an explainable contract-risk model for entertainment bookings (Transformers + SHAP) and integrated it into a legacy booking system via a Flask REST API, plus prior IoT work at Nissan processing CAN bus sensor streams for diagnostics/anomaly insights.”

“QA automation engineer with 7+ years across finance/healthcare/utility/services, specializing in Selenium + Cucumber and building automation frameworks. Has tested machine-learning-powered claims prediction features and uncovered complex timing/concurrency failures in subscription payments by simulating delayed webhooks and parallel execution, then driving production fixes end-to-end using disciplined Jira workflows.”

“AI startup co-founder and CTO who helped raise $2.6M in seed funding at RedRex and drove product strategy from ideation through execution. Experienced with rapid experimentation and AI-driven prototyping to validate ideas quickly, and has direct exposure to the VC/accelerator ecosystem (Gener8tor) with a market-first approach to building and pitching startups.”

“Forward-deployed, full-stack/platform engineer who owns production features end-to-end across frontend, backend, data, and infrastructure (AWS serverless, Terraform, React). Has modernized critical fintech/payment systems (zero-downtime monolith-to-microservices with Kafka event sourcing) and productionized AI-native support workflows (LLM + RAG on Pinecone) with measurable gains in latency, incidents, CSAT, and support efficiency.”

“Customer-facing embedded/IoT engineer with experience taking lab prototypes into production, including an IoT medical facility integration where they re-architected firmware with RTOS scheduling, added health monitoring/fault recovery, and implemented secure OTA updates. Strong at real-time diagnosis using end-to-end observability and at tailoring technical demos for both embedded and cloud developer audiences (MQTT/device shadows), helping drive customer confidence and broader deployments.”

“Built and operated an end-to-end customer-facing "Record Platform" web product as both engineer and primary user, focusing on reliability and correctness in core flows like search and checkout. Implemented a TypeScript/React frontend with a multi-service backend and Kafka-based event-driven architecture, and created internal tooling to automate risky ops like Kubernetes TLS certificate rotation with k6 load/chaos testing (including HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 validation).”

“Backend engineer who has shipped both high-throughput real-time systems and production LLM/RAG features. Built a database-free, local-first messaging service (Node/Express/Socket.IO) achieving ~1,500 msgs/sec at <25ms p95, and implemented a Go-based RAG recommendation pipeline with strict JSON/schema validation, catalog grounding, fallbacks, and eval loops that cut hallucinations to ~1–2% while reducing LLM costs ~60%.”

“Full-stack engineer who built an end-to-end low-code/no-code IDE for creating AI/ML workflows for industrial IoT sensors using Next.js/TypeScript and NestJS microservices. Focused on scaling high-volume sensor dashboards—improved UX and performance via WebSockets, debouncing, pagination, and API payload reduction—validated with profiling tools and user feedback in a startup environment.”
