Vetted Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) Professionals

“Candidate comes from SaaS and healthcare analytics rather than game development, but has strong end-to-end ownership experience building real-time, high-availability systems in Python/AWS. They highlight measurable impact across performance, throughput, uptime, and cost reduction, including queue optimization and predictive ICU utilization pipelines, and are looking to transfer that systems engineering foundation into Unity/gameplay work.”

“SDE who worked on an MGICS Lab robotics project building a multi-agent model to help agents understand tasks and generate robot instructions, emphasizing task-splitting, checking, and a reflection agent to improve accuracy. Also has experience using GitHub with automated CI/CD pipelines.”

“Backend engineer who built a serverless AWS Lambda microservices backend for a parenting assistance mobile app, including a personalized recommendation system optimized to sub-500ms via precomputed scoring and DynamoDB caching. Demonstrates strong production pragmatism: CloudWatch-driven performance tuning (provisioned concurrency), zero-downtime phased schema migrations, and robustness patterns like optimistic locking and request deduplication. Also led a refactor of an LLM RAG pipeline to improve retrieval quality and cut latency from ~5s to ~3s.”

“Developed and productionized an AI-driven "indication finding" system for AbbVie to identify additional diseases a drug could target, working closely with clinical research teams on cohort inclusion/exclusion criteria and disease rollups. Leveraged an LLM to map clinical inputs to ICD codes and built configuration-driven ML pipelines (Cloudera ML, YAML, scheduled jobs) with structured testing and evaluation for reliability.”

“ML/NLP engineer currently working in NYC on a system that connects complex unstructured data sources to deliver personalized insights, using embeddings + vector DB retrieval and a RAG architecture (LangChain, Pinecone/OpenSearch). Strong focus on production constraints—especially low-latency retrieval—using FAISS/ANN, PCA, index partitioning, and Redis caching, plus PEFT fine-tuning (LoRA/QLoRA) and KPI/SLA-driven promotion to production.”

“Former PwC Director with hands-on early-stage venture experience (e.g., BridgeLights, a big-data analytics concept for early fintech) spanning concept creation, platform architecture, and go-to-market experimentation. Strong focus on building scalable, modular data platforms with rigorous governance/compliance (data lineage, quality controls) and supporting technical diligence in investor-aligned environments.”

“Data engineer/backend engineer who owns large-scale, real-time event pipelines on AWS end-to-end, including a petabyte-scale CDC ingestion flow from multiple Postgres DBs into Redshift. Re-architected a legacy DynamoDB+S3 approach into a Delta Lake + DuckDB/PyArrow-compatible design, improving performance dramatically (e.g., ~600s to ~10s for 1k records) and increasing reliability at high file volumes.”

“Backend engineer with hands-on IoT and AI product work: built a decoupled Raspberry Pi + AWS IoT Core weather monitoring backend and a Dockerized FastAPI LLM service on AWS ECS using OpenAI/HuggingFace with an emerging RAG layer. Also delivered measurable performance gains at DAZN by redesigning event-driven/serverless ingestion (SNS, S3->Lambda->DynamoDB), cutting latency ~30% and boosting throughput ~25% while automating ~90% of manual sync work.”

Santa Clara, CA16y exp

“Senior Engineering Manager at Roche leading two Scrum teams building internally shared (“inner-sourced”) tools and libraries for a healthcare enterprise. Has led security/compliance-first architecture decisions (e.g., Python AI modules running inside a Java container) and front-end modularization (Angular monorepo to module federation), with a strong focus on developer experience via automated Swagger/OpenAPI documentation and robust testing/versioning practices.”

Remote, USA3y exp

“Full-stack engineer with strong data engineering and privacy-domain experience, having owned an automated Data Subject Rights (DSR) processing pipeline end-to-end across Azure SQL and GCP (GCS/BigQuery). Emphasizes production reliability via idempotency, validation checkpoints, structured logging/monitoring, and safe CI/CD-driven deployments, and has also built React+TypeScript + Node/Postgres web apps with scalable, maintainable architecture.”

“Built end-to-end financial workflow platforms at Citi spanning React frontends, Spring Boot microservices, Kafka, Redis, and Oracle. Particularly compelling for teams needing someone who can modernize legacy systems into real-time architectures—the candidate cites a 48x throughput improvement from a batch-to-Kafka modernization effort.”

“Backend/ML engineer who built production LLM-enabled systems at PRGX, including an interpretable contract opportunity scoring engine (Bradley-Terry pairwise ranking) that reached 0.82 weighted Spearman agreement with SME auditors and was integrated into workflow. Also built a Duke student advisor chatbot and hardened it for real-world reliability/security with schema-driven tool calling, normalization, and off-domain defenses; led staged production rollouts with shadow testing and achieved 0.90 F1 on a new extraction field before shipping.”

“Backend engineer focused on Python/FastAPI microservices, with hands-on experience deploying to AWS (EKS/ECR) via Jenkins and GitOps-style workflows using ArgoCD. Has built and stabilized real-time Kafka payment-event streaming pipelines and improved production performance under peak load through Redis caching, SQL optimization, and robust retry/DLQ patterns. Also supported phased migrations from on-prem environments to AWS with gradual traffic shifting and monitoring.”

“Built a lightweight internal JavaScript analytics tracker capturing user interactions (clicks, page views, custom events) with debounced batching, automatic session tracking, and offline event caching via a localStorage-backed append-only queue. Demonstrates practical performance optimization mindset (profiling, memoization/caching) and React performance tuning.”

“Uber engineer who has owned internal products end-to-end across backend (Spring Boot microservices, MySQL) and frontend (React), including performance optimization and secure JWT-based auth. Also shipped a production internal RAG/embeddings LLM support assistant over policy docs and support tickets, with guardrails (confidence thresholds, human review) and an evaluation loop that directly reduced hallucinations.”
