Vetted macOS Professionals

“UE5/VR-focused developer who has shipped real UE5 deliverables (Fab.com products and VR template projects used by graduate students) and built a modular VR training interaction system end-to-end using Blueprint Interfaces and Actor Components. Also shipped a game-ready UE5 character product (“Ryan the incredible”) with 180 animations and a scalable AnimBP, and has hands-on profiling/optimization experience reducing tick-heavy Blueprint logic.”

“Video editor/producer with ~15 years across Adobe Premiere and After Effects, including high-pressure live broadcast work at CNN handling rapid-turn 'crashing' graphics requests for shows like Anderson Cooper 360. Led post-production for a weekly 30-minute CBS affiliate program (Atlanta Eats), managing a multi-person editing team and standardizing graphics/templates. Currently an international video producer at Nestle, previously producing/managing YouTube content for Garden of Life.”

“Performance marketer with hands-on ownership of large Coca-Cola programmatic/retail media spend across The Trade Desk, Amazon DSP, and Walmart DSP, focused on ROAS and sales outcomes. Experienced in validating incrementality and attribution by benchmarking retailer first-party measurement against third-party partners (Foursquare/InMarket), and has delivered measurable lifts (e.g., 2x ROAS on Core Power; 1.5x–2x sales/ROAS recovery on Fairlife after audience + creative/video refresh).”

“Recruiting/casting leader who has managed and scaled talent booking/sourcing teams up to 20 people, building structured communication and process systems (Slack, daily meetings, documented workflows). Interfaces daily with C-suite executives across major networks/platforms and is comfortable jumping hands-on into high-impact executive search; targeting $175K–$225K and currently remote at $208K.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building FastAPI services on AWS and implementing strong reliability/observability (CloudWatch, ELK, correlation IDs, alarms). Has delivered serverless + container solutions with IaC (CloudFormation/Terraform) and Jenkins CI/CD, and built AWS Glue/PySpark pipelines into S3/Redshift with schema-evolution and data-quality safeguards; demonstrated large-scale SQL tuning (45 min to 3 min on a 500M-row workload).”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered multi-agent compliance copilot (life sciences/finance) using LangChain/LangGraph + RAG over vector databases, delivered via async FastAPI on Kubernetes. Emphasizes audit-ready, deterministic outputs with schema constraints and citations, plus rigorous evaluation/monitoring; reports 60%+ reduction in manual research time and successful production adoption.”

“Full-stack engineer with production experience building and owning high-traffic e-commerce checkout flows in Next.js (App Router) + TypeScript across microservices (REST/GraphQL). Demonstrated measurable performance wins (30% checkout improvement; 85% initial load reduction at 20th Century FOX) and strong production rigor (APM/logs, CloudWatch, Postgres indexing + EXPLAIN ANALYZE), including offloading PDF generation to AWS Lambda.”

“Robotics software engineer focused on real-time estimation/control and motion replanning, currently integrating a factor-graph-based estimation/control stack with sampling-based replanning in a ROS environment validated on both MuSHR hardware and MuJoCo simulation. Strong in distributed-system debugging (rosbags/logging, controlled test scenarios) and ROS performance patterns (nodelets, TF/TF2), with prior multi-robot experience from SSL RoboCup using custom UDP protocols.”

“Built and owned Prism, a real-time collaborative coding platform, making key architectural choices around deterministic event ordering and a backend source-of-truth to improve trust under concurrent edits. Also created a Python-based bug analysis and test automation suite that became part of standard engineering workflow, cutting debugging time by ~95% while improving fault detection coverage.”

“Enterprise platform engineer/product owner who led end-to-end delivery of customer-facing ServiceNow Service Catalog/workflow solutions, emphasizing reliability, security, and fast iteration. Built React/TypeScript portals with Node.js and Spring Boot backends, and improved microservices reliability at scale using Kafka, monitoring, and robust retry/timeout patterns.”

“Amazon engineer who built a production AI agent platform (Python/AWS Strands on Bedrock) that lets teams create tool-using, multi-agent workflows—e.g., agents that auto-triage and resolve customer support tickets by reading internal documentation and collaborating with a research agent. Previously worked in Deloitte on IAM using Ping Identity/Ping DaVinci orchestration, and applies orchestration thinking plus structured evaluation (LLM-as-judge, surveys, automated tests) to improve agent reliability.”

“Hands-on engineering leader with 22 years in marine vessel monitoring/control who spans embedded electronics/software through cloud services. Built end-to-end telemetry platforms (sensors to cloud to web UI/API) and led a shift from low-level implementations to web-native technologies to accelerate delivery and broaden the hiring pool, while also scaling teams with a strong culture of openness and accountability.”

“Backend-focused Python/Flask engineer who has built authentication/profile services with clean modular architecture (blueprints + service layer) and tuned SQLAlchemy/Postgres for scale using indexing, query rewrites, and pagination. Has production-style integration experience for AI/ML via TensorFlow Serving and OpenAI APIs (batching, rate limiting, caching), plus multi-tenant data isolation and high-throughput background processing with Celery/Redis and idempotent jobs.”

“Engineering leader/player-coach who led a high-stakes 0→1 in-house usage-based billing/rating platform to replace a third-party system, saving millions and protecting 30M+ in revenue. Deep experience in event-driven microservices on AWS (Lambda/SQS/DynamoDB), billing correctness, migrations, and incident response, while scaling teams through hiring, coaching, and lightweight execution processes.”
