Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in authentication and SolidJS/TypeScript

New York City, NY3y exp

“Mid-level full-stack engineer (Los Angeles) who built and shipped an end-to-end authentication system for SolidAuth, an open-source SolidStart ecosystem library published to NPM with 1000+ downloads. Experienced designing React/TypeScript + Node + Postgres architectures, operating lightweight production systems on AWS (EC2/S3/RDS/IAM/CloudWatch), and building resilient third-party ingestion/integration flows with idempotency, retries, queues, and backfills; also worked in an early-stage NIL startup (OFFSZN) shipping core onboarding/profile features amid changing requirements.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI and RAG systems

Remote, USA4y exp

“Currently at ProShare and reports building an AI/LLM-powered system deployed to production, aimed at helping with status-related difficulties and reducing misunderstandings across transactions. Also cites prior collaboration at Porsche with marketing teams, focusing on translating marketing goals into technical requirements and communicating solutions clearly to non-technical stakeholders.”

“Built and shipped "OnCall Copilot," a production Slack-based RAG assistant that answers on-call questions from runbooks and postmortems with citations using a FAISS vector index. Emphasizes reliability and measurable performance via strict guardrails ("no evidence, no answer"), evaluation metrics, drift monitoring, and operational hardening with Docker, logging, health checks, and offline fallback.”

“Frontend engineer at LodestonePM who led end-to-end delivery of an AI release-notes generator (OpenAI API) and a Kanban-style release board in Remix/React/TypeScript. Demonstrated scalable architecture (bridging tables, upserts), strong QA practices, and measurable performance wins (200+ item loads reduced from 10–20s to a few seconds via caching/pagination), plus UX improvements like simplifying a Jira integration flow.”

“Frontend engineer with experience building an orthodontics-focused IoT web product, including a complex React + TypeScript 3D treatment viewer with a layered architecture (data layer plus multiple canvas asset managers). Has applied performance techniques like caching and Web Workers to keep the UI responsive under heavy computation, and shipped monetization features such as payments and coupon/discount flows with structured QA rollout.”

“Backend Python engineer who owned the full backend build of an AI-driven platform for UK golf clubs, including FastAPI microservices, vector search, and a tuned LangChain+Pinecone RAG pipeline focused on cost and hallucination reduction. Experienced deploying Django/FastAPI/Flask stacks on AWS-backed Kubernetes with GitOps/ArgoCD-style delivery, plus executing legacy-to-AWS migrations and building Kafka-based real-time analytics pipelines.”

Mid-Level Applied AI Engineer specializing in LLM services, RAG, and OCR/NLP extraction

Arlington, VA4y exp

“Backend/platform engineer who built and evolved a large-scale healthcare document processing system (OCR + LLM orchestration) in Python/FastAPI on Google Cloud (Cloud Run, GCS, Firestore), processing ~1.5M files per batch and tens of millions overall. Emphasizes reliability and operational safety via deterministic IDs, idempotent state machines, strong observability, and self-healing reconciliation, plus disciplined migrations using dual-run validation and incremental rollouts.”

“Software engineering capstone contributor who helped kickstart an ambiguous, real-client project ("The Virtual Cowboy") by designing the initial relational database and CRUD foundation, then prioritized and shipped simulation/event functionality that satisfied the client. Also building a personal full-stack Book Notes web app (Node/Express/Postgres) with Google OAuth via Passport and a books API ingestion flow focused on data quality and reliability; has deployment experience with Heroku and PythonAnywhere and is ramping up on AWS.”

“Led a government smart city deployment where success depended less on pure engineering and more on navigating policy, budget, and operational constraints. Built phased, cost-conscious systems combining data pipelines, on-prem AI, OCR, and human-in-the-loop workflows to deliver stable production outcomes and make ambiguous real-world data more controllable at scale.”
