Vetted Next.js Professionals

“Stripe engineer who shipped an end-to-end merchant fraud insights dashboard, spanning Spring Boot/Kafka risk-scoring services and a React+TypeScript UI. Focused on low-latency, high-volume transaction processing and production operations on AWS (EKS/CloudWatch), including handling a real traffic-spike latency incident via query optimization, indexing, and rate limiting.”

“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.”

“Software engineer with experience at Amazon and Agora building end-to-end systems: a knowledge-base AI chatbot (React/TypeScript UI + retrieval/response backend + Docker deployment) and an internal approval governance platform using AWS Step Functions and DynamoDB. Emphasizes fast iteration without sacrificing trust via feature-flag rollouts, citation-required answers, abstention on low-confidence retrieval, regression query sets, and strong observability (request IDs, structured logs, latency/error monitoring).”

“Built an AI-powered restaurant menu rewriting app that generates diet-constrained menus from photos, with a backend designed around bounded contexts and a lightweight CQRS approach. Demonstrates strong multi-tenant PostgreSQL design (RLS, tenant-scoped queries) and performance tuning (partitioning, keyset pagination, composite/partial indexes), plus AI workflow orchestration using Redis/BullMQ and Vercel AI SDK with structured outputs and evals; reduced p95 latency ~35–50% via racing LLM requests and caching.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production AWS experience spanning serverless APIs (Chalice/Lambda/API Gateway/Cognito) and data pipelines (Glue PySpark + Step Functions). Has modernized a legacy SAS reporting system into AWS microservices and implemented schema-drift detection and incident prevention for ETL workflows, plus measurable SQL tuning wins (30 min to <10 min runtime).”

“Internship experience at Intuit building an LLM-grounded QA system for internal microservice data across 100+ microservices, using a graph database approach (evaluated Neo4j and selected AWS Neptune for production alignment). Also has UC Berkeley research experience (including work with Prof. Dawn Song / Berkeley Eye Research Lab) and cross-functional collaboration with bioinformatics/biology teams to deploy software systems on research servers.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience across Magna, C3.ai, and Amazon, building GenAI-enabled products and finance transaction systems. Has shipped Next.js (App Router) + TypeScript features backed by Go/Python RAG pipelines, and emphasizes production quality via load testing, Selenium regression coverage, LLM-aware integration testing, and Azure observability. Also built LangGraph-orchestrated multi-step content generation workflows with robust retry/idempotency strategies.”

“Product/UX designer who builds end-to-end systems across both consumer wellness and industrial/technical domains. Designed BloomPath (mental-wellness platform for therapists and young professionals) using research-driven, emotionally safe interaction patterns, and also simplified a Bosch autonomous parking vision-language mapping pipeline into a developer-facing real-time UI with layered debug tooling. Comfortable collaborating deeply with engineers and contributing in React/JS.”

“Backend engineer with healthcare platform experience at Thirty Madison, combining Django for secure, data-heavy core services with FastAPI async microservices for real-time patient monitoring. Led Kubernetes migration with Istio service mesh, autoscaling (HPA), and stateful storage patterns, and implemented GitOps CI/CD using ArgoCD. Also built real-time Kafka streaming pipelines with reliability patterns like idempotent producers and offset management.”

“Built a production RAG-based natural-language-to-SQL system at Global Atlantic to replace slow, expensive manual analytics ticket workflows, focusing heavily on retrieval quality and measurable evaluation (200-question ground-truth set; recall@5 improved 0.65→0.78 via semantic chunking). Also built a custom MCP-style agent orchestrator for a personal project (arxiv-ai) to improve flexibility and Langfuse-aligned observability, and has hands-on experience with LangGraph, CrewAI, and n8n.”

“Backend/data engineer with Optum healthcare claims domain experience building high-reliability Python microservices (FastAPI/Kafka/Postgres) and AWS data platforms (EKS, Glue, Redshift). Demonstrated strong production ownership: fixed duplicate Kafka processing via transactional outbox/idempotency, scaled to millions of daily events, and delivered major SQL performance gains (40+ min to <5 min, ~60% CPU reduction). Seeking remote-only work; targets $130k base.”

“Built and productionized a dual-agent LLM invoice-processing system for GFI Partners, adding guardrails and audit trails to earn stakeholder trust and drive adoption while cutting operational burden by 75%. Uses LangSmith observability to diagnose real-time workflow regressions and has experience teaching agentic AI concepts (e.g., at Carnegie Mellon) through hands-on, scaffolded demos.”

“Backend/data engineer who has owned production Python APIs and high-throughput async workflows on AWS (FastAPI, Docker, ECS/EKS/Lambda) with mature reliability practices like idempotency, bounded retries, circuit breakers, and strong observability. Also built AWS Glue ETL into an S3/Redshift lakehouse and modernized legacy batch systems via parallel-run parity testing and feature-flagged migrations, including a SQL tuning win cutting a multi-minute query to under 10 seconds.”
