Vetted Next.js Professionals

“Backend/AI engineer who built and scaled an internal AMD semiconductor manufacturing microservice platform (SMR), reworking a synchronous lot-request workflow into an event-driven RabbitMQ/Celery/FastAPI pipeline. Diagnosed and fixed peak-load reliability issues using deep observability and Kubernetes autoscaling, cutting notification latency back to sub-second and reducing duplicates via idempotency/DLQs. Also shipped an LLM-powered natural-language search with schema-constrained JSON outputs and guardrails, plus a plan-execute-verify Jira bug-resolution agent that can propose fixes and raise PRs under restricted permissions.”

Staff/Lead Data Scientist specializing in Generative AI, NLP/LLMs, and MLOps

Pascagoula, MS10y exp

“Lead Data Scientist (10+ years) with recent work in healthcare data: built production pipelines that unify EHR, genomics, and clinical notes using NLP (spaCy/BERT/BioBERT) and scalable Spark-based processing. Also led development of domain-specific LLM/NLP systems for chatbots and semantic search, deploying models via FastAPI/Flask and improving retrieval with FAISS-backed, fine-tuned clinical embeddings and RAG-style workflows.”

Director-level Engineering & Program Leader specializing in AI product platforms

San Diego, CA25y exp

“Technical Program Manager and one of three internal "founders" of HP’s Hardware-as-a-Service home printer subscription initiative, spanning DTC shipping, simplified setup, ink replenishment, and warranty coverage. Led roadmap definition/execution, scaled delivery rapidly to 15+ scrum teams (including vendors) with SAFe-like coordination and shared engineering standards, and drove key architecture trade-offs (building an interim subscription management service) to accelerate time-to-market by about a year.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Developer specializing in cloud microservices and AI/ML integration

Remote, USA4y exp

“Full-stack engineer (~3 years) with eBay production experience building and operating high-scale, event-driven Python microservices for order processing and AI-powered recommendations (Kafka/Redis/FastAPI on AWS with Prometheus/Grafana). Also delivered polished React+TypeScript analytics dashboards and designed high-concurrency PostgreSQL schemas with significant latency reductions. Recently built AI-agent orchestration and an interactive node-based requirements dashboard for Siemens Polarion via MCP servers, improving user interaction by ~17.8%+.”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in cloud developer tools and backend APIs

Seattle, WA2y exp

“Summer intern on AWS Lambda tooling team who shipped Finch support in AWS SAM CLI, adding OS/runtime detection and robust fallback behavior to preserve Docker compatibility across developer environments. Also built an end-to-end RAG system for querying arXiv quantitative finance papers using Postgres/pgvector with two-stage retrieval, citation-grounded prompting, and rigorous evaluation loops driven by IR metrics and user feedback.”

Ranganayak Meravath

Mid-level Generative AI Engineer specializing in RAG, agentic copilots, and regulated AI

5y exp

“Senior engineer who built and productionized an Azure-based Enterprise AI Copilot for financial/compliance teams, focused on grounded, auditable answers with citations to reduce hallucinations in regulated workflows. Experienced designing multi-step agent orchestration and improving reliability through targeted iterations (e.g., fixing chunking/parsing to materially improve citation accuracy), plus building defensive pipelines for messy ERP/operational finance data.”

Jason Shankel

Executive Software Engineer/CTO specializing in real-time 3D, game engines, and BIM platforms

San Francisco, CA28y exp

“Game/interactive systems engineer with shipped Unity/C# work (including performance gains on iOS) and experience building creator-facing tooling like a plain-language level scripting system. Also implemented an OpenAI-powered UGC dialogue/event generation pipeline with offline fallback, and built multiplayer collaborative editing in Unreal for an architectural drafting product using checksum + delta synchronization.”

Cheryl Qian

Junior Product Designer specializing in AI-powered SaaS products

New York, NY3y exp

“Product-minded designer/builder who operates at the intersection of UX, support, and engineering. At Miter, they helped launch three products and built the customer-facing readiness layer that contributed to a 15% adoption increase; at Yacht Labs, they designed and implemented high-polish React/Next.js experiences and proposed a spec-driven app generation system to make AI output more controllable and trustworthy.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience spanning Amazon IMDb and Northeastern’s NeuroJSON portal, combining consumer product work with complex scientific data applications. Built IMDb’s streaming providers feature—described as the company’s most impactful feature of 2023—and has hands-on experience with React/Angular, GraphQL, AWS, Python services, and production monitoring.”

“Built an AI-powered job outreach application for his own job search and took it from idea to production use, owning architecture, FastAPI backend, retrieval/generation pipeline, frontend workflow, deployment, and iteration. Especially compelling for teams needing a pragmatic full-stack engineer who can turn LLM-based product ideas into usable, maintainable tools with measurable workflow impact.”
