Executive technology leader specializing in big data, AI/ML, and SaaS platforms

Escondido, CA28y exp

“Hands-on IT/engineering executive who has led high-impact architecture changes and compliance-driven data systems. Notably built an internally developed columnar database at Troparé (with dual-support UI for legacy/new DBs) and shipped an MVP in 3–4 months with dramatic performance improvements, and previously delivered PCI/opt-out compliant deletion workflows while addressing DB performance and migrations.”

“Frontend engineer who built the full frontend for gameofstreaks.com using React/Next.js with an emphasis on responsive design, accessibility, SEO, and performance profiling. Has experience refactoring legacy HTML/CSS/JS sites into reusable React components and shipping quickly with unit tests, CI/CD, and branch-based deployments; also collaborates with designers in hackathon settings (e.g., an AI interview practice app).”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in cloud data platforms and FinTech payments

Atlanta, GA4y exp

“Backend engineer focused on financial systems, having evolved payments and reconciliation platforms using Python/FastAPI and PostgreSQL with an emphasis on idempotency, validation, and consistency. Has led monolith-to-services migrations using feature flags and shadow traffic, and implements defense-in-depth security (OAuth2/JWT plus DB-level row security) for multi-tenant environments.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building FastAPI Python APIs and AWS-native platforms (Lambda/API Gateway, SQS, ECS Fargate) with Terraform + GitHub Actions CI/CD and strong reliability practices (JWT/RBAC, retries/timeouts, structured errors/logging). Also built AWS Glue ETL pipelines (S3/RDS to curated S3/Athena) with schema evolution and data quality controls, modernized legacy processing via parallel-run validation and phased cutovers, and has demonstrated SQL tuning impact (seconds to <200ms) plus incident ownership for batch pipeline SLAs.”

“Frontend-focused engineer (~8 years) with strong React/TypeScript and Angular experience who leads end-to-end UI architecture, performance budgets, and quality practices at scale. Known for restructuring large, tightly coupled codebases into feature-based domains to eliminate UI freezes and improve team throughput, and for tight Product/Design/QA alignment via a “3 Amigos” process that catches workflow gaps early. Currently seeking a new frontend role due to GE Vernova outsourcing; has been acquired twice by large companies.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in Healthcare IT

San Francisco, CA27y exp

“Founding/sole engineer who has built multiple healthcare products from scratch, spanning medical billing, cardiology triage, and cardiac device monitoring. Particularly compelling for healthtech and AI roles: they combine full-stack TypeScript/AWS execution with strong product judgment in regulated settings, including shipping voice-enabled RAG workflows and rejecting unsafe AI automation when simpler human-in-the-loop UX was the right answer.”

Senior Java Full-Stack Developer specializing in microservices and cloud platforms

5y exp

“Frontend engineer who has led enterprise-scale UI delivery end-to-end on a microservices platform, designing modular Angular SPAs (v12-17) tightly aligned to Spring Boot REST APIs. Emphasizes quality and release velocity through layered testing (Karma/Jasmine), CI/CD automation (Jenkins/Azure DevOps), performance tuning with RxJS/lazy loading, and incremental rollouts with close product/design/QA collaboration.”

“AI-focused product engineer working on LLM routing, prompt engineering, and multimodal API integrations at production scale. They describe improving system accuracy, latency, and token usage, fine-tuning an internal model to reduce third-party API dependence, and adding safety guardrails through prompt-injection testing and red-team evaluation.”
