Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in FinTech and real-time systems

Bellevue, WA7y exp

“Full-stack product engineer with a strong real-time systems focus: built and rolled out a WebSocket-based notifications system (with robust reconnect/resync and event ordering protections) that cut update latency to under 200ms. Also owned a workflow automation platform backend in FastAPI (JWT/RBAC, versioned APIs, standardized errors), designed the PostgreSQL schema for workflows/tasks/executions, and operated deployments on AWS ECS Fargate with blue-green CI/CD and performance stabilization via caching and autoscaling.”

“Solo builder of ZenDSA, a live AI-powered DSA learning product with 37 real users, built end to end using Java/Spring Boot, React, and TypeScript. Particularly interesting for teams building AI products: they designed a production LLM fallback architecture, enforced structured JSON outputs, monitored parse-failure regressions, and fixed an SSRF vulnerability after launch.”

“Machine learning lab assistant at Eastern Illinois University who productionized a voice-enabled conversational AI system: redesigned it with RAG, LoRA fine-tuning (including text-to-SQL), and safety guardrails, then deployed a scalable API supporting ~1,000 daily queries. Also partnered with customer-facing teams during a BlueFi internship by building demos/APIs and accelerating releases via Terraform + AWS CI/CD automation.”

“Backend engineer with production ERP experience deploying microservices and improving performance/reliability using a metrics-driven approach (logs, latency, error rates). Has hands-on cloud/hybrid operations across AWS and Azure with Docker/Kubernetes, and has resolved real-world mobile sync issues by tuning timeouts/retries and reducing payload sizes. Builds configurable Python services to deliver customer-specific behavior without destabilizing the core codebase.”

“Built a voice-driven desktop assistant for users with mobility impairments, integrating Whisper and Google Gemini and adding voice-authentication via speaker embeddings for secure command execution. Has hands-on experience with AWS serverless/microservices patterns (Lambda, S3, CloudFront, CloudWatch) and CI/CD, plus built an internal MySQL-to-MongoDB migration tool used by the CTO and dev team with an emphasis on safe, low-impact data transformation.”

“Built and shipped production LLM-driven pipelines for clinical data processing, turning semi-structured inputs into validated structured outputs for downstream analytics. Emphasizes predictability and safety via strict JSON schemas, state-machine orchestration, backend-controlled tool calling, and robust fallbacks (rule-based checks/manual review) plus monitoring and offline/online evaluation loops; also has experience hardening workflows against messy ERP/finance data with idempotency and state tracking.”

“Frontend/full-stack engineer with startup experience who described building a HIPAA-compliant telehealth and e-commerce platform from scratch using Next.js and TypeScript. Stands out for combining security-conscious browser architecture, real-time data handling, and performance optimization, including a reported 51% UX improvement and shipping an MVP two weeks early.”

“Backend/ML engineering candidate focused on fintech automation who architected a zero-to-one agentic/LLM-enabled system to reconcile messy financial documents and bank transactions, reporting ~40% operational efficiency gains. Experienced migrating monoliths to event-driven microservices with incremental rollout via reverse proxy, and implementing production-grade security (OAuth2/JWT, RBAC, Supabase RLS) plus resilience patterns (timeouts/retries under concurrency).”

“Full-stack engineer (4+ years) with a Master’s in Computer Science who owned end-to-end customer-facing social networking features at NextBits, building TypeScript/React/Next.js + NestJS systems with microservices, RabbitMQ, MongoDB, and Redis. Experienced scaling real-time notifications/messaging/presence to millions of concurrent users with sub-100ms performance targets, zero-downtime CI/CD, and internal tooling for monitoring AI/ML pipelines and queue backlogs.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Developer specializing in Python/Django and React

Little Rock, AR4y exp

“Backend engineer at Hexanika who owned a real-time fraud-detection platform: built Django microservices, integrated a GenAI anomaly-scoring model, and optimized data/infra for low-latency production (including ~40% query-latency reduction). Experienced running containerized services on AWS/GCP with Kubernetes/GKE, GitHub Actions-based CI/CD + GitOps, and building Pub/Sub streaming pipelines and on-prem-to-cloud migrations.”

“Internship-built full-stack systems spanning HR employee-record portals and internal data-quality dashboards (Flask + SQL + React), emphasizing data integrity and rapid MVP iteration. Also implemented Flask microservices with RabbitMQ for distributed task processing, addressing duplication/ordering issues with idempotency, durable queues, and correlation-ID logging; delivered quantified productivity gains for HR teams.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in Web3 and FinTech

Global, Remote6y exp

“Full-stack engineer with deep startup experience (pre-seed through IPO/SPAC) currently building a Next.js/TypeScript SaaS sports analytics platform with a complex Postgres-based entitlement/ACL system. Has delivered measurable UX/business impact (35% retention lift, 40% volume increase) and built production-grade daily ETL + model training/inference workflows with validation and checkpointing for reliability.”
