Junior AI & Software Engineer specializing in robotics and ML infrastructure

2y exp

“Robotics engineer from UIUC’s Intelligent Motion Lab who led the perception stack for a humanoid robotic nurse, fusing camera/LiDAR/IMU on NVIDIA Jetson Orin for real-time localization and scene understanding across six robots. Deep expertise in ROS 2 and edge ML optimization (TensorRT, CUDA, zero-copy), delivering major latency/throughput gains (10 FPS to 22+ FPS) and building fault-tolerant pipelines with gRPC offloading and real-time reliability practices.”

“Senior engineering/CTO-level leader with hands-on delivery of serverless, event-driven cloud governance platforms (deployed across multiple GE business units) and experience building adaptable usage-based billing at UserTesting. Has advised startups (including CaseText during YC) and supported fundraising and acquisition due diligence, including investor materials for a smart cooler custody management system presented to BARDA during Operation Warp Speed.”

“Backend engineer with hands-on experience building Python/Flask microservices using PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy, JWT auth, Docker, and GitHub Actions CI/CD. Strong in performance and scalability work—migrated heavy processing to Celery/Redis, tuned queries with EXPLAIN ANALYZE and indexing, and delivered 50%+ API latency reduction. Also integrates AI workflows (OpenAI APIs) with batching/caching/fallbacks and has implemented multi-tenant data isolation patterns.”

“Interned at SLB and owned an end-to-end GenAI chatbot deployment for a finance team, including invoice PDF data extraction and an LLM-driven layer (LangGraph/LangChain) that translated natural language to SQL and returned results in natural language. Validated LLM JSON outputs against benchmarks using DeepDiff and deployed the solution via Docker to Kubernetes, managing pods with k9s.”

Mid-level Backend/Full-Stack Engineer specializing in AI and FinTech payments

Tempe, AZ4y exp

“Full-stack engineer who has owned an operational reporting/dashboard product end-to-end—building a React UI, designing/implementing FastAPI services, and deploying/operating on AWS. Demonstrates strong performance engineering (Postgres query/index tuning using EXPLAIN ANALYZE) with concrete impact (reports reduced from tens of seconds to a few seconds) and a reliability mindset across observability, migrations, and resilient third-party/ETL integrations.”

Director of Software Engineering specializing in enterprise Data, ML & AI platforms

Bay Area, CA23y exp

“Former Walmart Director of Software Engineering who left in March 2025 to build products for clients. Recently delivered an LLM/RAG-based UNSPSC classification solution for an MRO client using a multi-stage retrieval + web search + prompt-engineering workflow, and has led large-scale retail forecasting initiatives and high-severity cloud-migration incidents end-to-end.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native backend and web/mobile apps

Seattle, WA8y exp

“Backend engineer with Tesla experience building Python-based, serverless microservices for a supply chain portal, including a MongoDB-backed tracking/logging system and a reconciler Lambda to manage retries and failures. Has hands-on Kubernetes (EKS) and GitOps (Argo CD) experience, plus real-time Kafka pipelines for fleet/IoT telemetry and proxy-based migrations from monolith systems to AWS databases.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in cloud automation and data/ETL platforms

Arlington, Virginia6y exp

“Backend engineer with AWS multi-region production experience building APIs and workflow automation for data center/storage hardware operations (firmware orchestration, maintenance checks, ticketing, dashboards). Also shipped an internal AI chat tool that parses hardware runbooks and incorporates user feedback to retrain the model, and has a strong testing/quality discipline (95%+ coverage) plus database performance tuning via indexing and query monitoring.”

“Engineer with hands-on experience across backend, full-stack, cloud, and AI/ML systems, with particular depth in Python, FastAPI, AWS Bedrock, SageMaker, and RAG-based architectures. Stands out for treating AI and agents as accelerators within disciplined production engineering, emphasizing guardrails, observability, latency/cost monitoring, and scalable system design.”

“Full-stack engineer with startup-style experience building assessment and learning platforms using React, Node.js, Python, MongoDB, and PostgreSQL. Stands out for owning backend auto-grading and analytics features end to end, including concurrency-safe submission processing and database performance optimization for growing datasets.”

“Backend/data engineering candidate with Netflix experience designing and migrating analytics platforms from batch to real-time streaming (Kafka/Flink) across AWS and GCP. Delivered measurable improvements (40% lower data delay, 99.9% accuracy) using phased rollouts, automated data validation (Great Expectations), and strong observability (Prometheus/Grafana), and proactively hardened pipelines with idempotency to prevent duplicate Kafka processing.”

“IBM Power/AIX infrastructure engineer who has owned a large enterprise footprint (40 Power8/9 frames, 400+ AIX LPARs) with deep hands-on VIOS/HMC, NIM, performance tuning, and PowerHA recovery. Demonstrated high-impact incident response (avoided DB reboot saving ~4 hours; restored clustered services in <20 minutes) plus strong RCA and preventative remediation. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC experience building GitHub Actions pipelines and Terraform-managed AWS EKS/VPC/RDS/S3 environments.”

“Full-stack engineer in the investment tracking/financial reporting space who built an automated reporting dashboard and compliance/reporting pipeline end-to-end using Next.js (App Router, server/client components), REST, and Postgres. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (~30% faster loads) through caching and query optimization, and built durable orchestrated workflows in n8n with retries, idempotency, and reconciliation checks.”

“Amazon engineer who built an Amazon Bedrock-powered summarization layer over large-scale network/service telemetry (“top talker” insights) to help security engineers triage anomalies faster. Emphasizes production-grade design patterns for LLM features—non-blocking enrichment, deterministic fallbacks, strict structured outputs, and monitoring to preserve trust in source-of-truth telemetry.”
