Vetted Object Detection Professionals

“Recent internship project at Google Workspace building an LLM-driven Python backend pipeline to extract/enrich NLP features from messy customer web domains and integrate them into a Domain Feature Store for personalization and promotions. Also has hands-on Kubernetes/Docker deployment experience for a Digital Signage SaaS backend with GitHub Actions CI, plus strong streaming-systems knowledge (Kafka exactly-once, schema evolution, Flink scaling) and built an information retrieval system handling 30,000+ cases.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of production computer vision and GenAI systems, spanning real-time public safety video analytics and RAG-based knowledge assistants. Stands out for translating research-oriented approaches into scalable, monitored production systems with clear business impact, including 50% latency reductions, 25% faster response times, and 40% lower document search time.”

“Hands-on engineering manager at a marketing company leading a highly senior, distributed team (10 direct reports) while personally coding ~60–70% and owning end-to-end architecture across three interconnected products. Built agentic CRM automation and a reinforcement-learning-driven distribution layer for channel spend/bidding, with a strong focus on scalable design and observability (Prometheus/APM/logging) enabling frequent releases and few production incidents.”

“Customer-facing technical professional with Amazon incident-management experience who helps drive adoption of complex ML/LLM solutions by delivering hands-on demos and rapid model fine-tuning. Applies a disciplined debugging approach (repro + logs/metrics + severity triage) and maintains runbooks to resolve SEV2 issues in ~1 hour, while also partnering with sales/customer teams to ship patches and new features based on feedback.”

“Robotics software engineer with extensive ROS2 academic project experience (UMDCP), including a drone-based 3D object reconstruction system using Mast3r where they built ROS2 nodes for autonomous image capture, containerized the ROS2/OpenCV stack for hardware deployment, and automated AWS uploads/compute-triggered reconstruction. Demonstrated strong sim-to-real debugging using ROS bags and PlotJuggler to correct yaw/trajectory offsets, and built multi-node TurtleBot navigation using visual cues (horizon/stop signal/obstacle detection) feeding a cmd_vel controller.”

“Robotics engineering intern and mechanical engineering master’s student who bridges hardware testing and ML/ROS2 software: built a PyTorch model to map motor test data across motor types using electrical specs (Kv/Kt/R/L) and validated it against new motors to meet strict torque/thermal accuracy targets. Also integrated CNN-based perception into ROS2 for real-time navigation and implemented MPC with time-synchronized multi-topic messaging to avoid stale-data control issues.”

Fremont, CA25y exp

“Robotics controls engineer with experience spanning an RV/trailer automatic hitching and towing robot (vision + EKF sensor fusion, anti-jackknife/anti-sway, multi-loop torque assistance control) and 3 years on a ROS-based RoboTaxi autonomous driving stack at Pegasus Technology. Improved MPC trajectory generation robustness by converting hard constraints to soft constraints with slack variables, and built an AI-powered PR review agent (Claude-code) integrated into CI/CD to reduce bugs.”
