Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in backend systems and AI applications

Remote13y exp

“Candidate is deeply focused on AI-native software development, using a deliberate planner/implementer agent workflow with tools like Cursor, Claude, and Kimi. They also built a personal project called Config Proctor, an AI-agent-driven Terraform/AWS self-healing system that identifies infrastructure configuration gaps and proposes fixes.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer who described owning an artist search and detail experience across UI, backend integrations, and data modeling. They show practical strength in scalable React architecture, TypeScript safety, and performance tuning, with a product-minded approach to shipping 0→1 features quickly and iterating after launch.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in cloud infrastructure and full-stack web development

San Francisco, CA2y exp

“Backend engineer at Electric Hydrogen who built a serverless device-log ingestion and processing platform in Python/Flask, scaling throughput (4x peak ingestion) while keeping sub-300ms API latency. Strong in Postgres/SQLAlchemy performance (partitioning, materialized views) and production ML integration (ONNX model served via FastAPI microservice with async batch inference, Redis feature caching, and drift monitoring via S3/Lambda). Experienced designing secure multi-tenant systems with schema-per-tenant isolation and KMS-backed encryption.”

“Robotics-focused engineer with ROS 2 experience who has built and debugged real-time, distributed control/orchestration systems under production-like latency and safety constraints. Led platform changes at Persona for a real-time verification orchestration system using deterministic state machines and async workers, and has hands-on experience stabilizing multi-robot navigation/SLAM behavior using rosbag, RViz, and stress testing in simulation (Gazebo).”

Executive AI/ML technology leader specializing in healthcare, biotech, and legal AI

Irvine, CA17y exp

“Repeat founder and startup advisor with experience spanning academic, health tech, legal tech, sports, and gaming. Has participated in fundraising and due diligence and has built companies, engineering teams, and software platforms from scratch, with a strong product-design-first approach to product-market fit and market selection.”

“Co-founded academic-index (10,000+ users) and built a full-stack Next.js 14 document upload + client-side OCR + Gemini-powered analysis pipeline with strong production reliability (custom monitoring, retries, quality gates) and measurable gains (accuracy ~94%→98.5%, failures down ~60%). Also owns end-to-end biometric data visualization and a data-driven brand/UX overhaul at pre-seed health/performance startup Absolute Rest, with a background running a multi-client dev studio (Zen Digital).”
