Vetted Observability Professionals

“Software engineer with production experience at DraftKings and SRC, owning high-impact platform changes like early-start lineup validation fixes and a multi-service refactor to support dual-role players (e.g., Ohtani) using backward-compatible, feature-flagged rollouts. Has embedded onsite with military users to rapidly ship improvements to a COP/TAK mapping integration (TrackSync), and leverages AI tools (Claude) to accelerate learning and delivery in new domains (e.g., ESP32 smart deadbolt project).”

“Full-stack engineer with end-to-end ownership across React/TypeScript frontends, Spring Boot/Node microservices, and production ops on Docker/Kubernetes and AWS (ECS/CloudWatch). Built real-time healthcare eligibility and analytics systems at Cigna and an early-stage seller onboarding platform at Flipkart, driving measurable performance gains (35–40% latency/throughput improvements) through event-driven Kafka pipelines, Redis caching, and strong reliability/observability practices.”

“LLM/agentic systems practitioner who specializes in moving demo-only assistants into reliable, observable, cost-controlled production services. Strong in real-time diagnosis of complex agent workflows (including tracing, loop detection, and guardrails) and in customer-facing enablement—running workshops, building tailored PoCs, and partnering with sales to close deals by proving reliability in high-risk pilots.”

“Software engineer with experience delivering customer-facing solutions across consulting and engineering contexts (Deloitte, Coherent), including a finance reconciliation system and a firmware validation tool integrated into existing test infrastructure. Demonstrates strong on-site/customer collaboration, rapid iteration, and high-pressure debugging (CARLA demo fix), with measurable impact and a focus on adoption through familiar workflows and clear documentation.”

“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 and deployed a production LLM-powered multi-agent compliance copilot (life sciences/finance) using LangChain/LangGraph + RAG over vector databases, delivered via async FastAPI on Kubernetes. Emphasizes audit-ready, deterministic outputs with schema constraints and citations, plus rigorous evaluation/monitoring; reports 60%+ reduction in manual research time and successful production adoption.”

“LLM/agentic-systems engineer with PayPal experience hardening an LLM-powered fraud support assistant from prototype to production, focusing on low-latency distributed architecture, rigorous evaluation/testing, and security/compliance. Comfortable in customer-facing and GTM contexts—runs technical demos/workshops, builds tailored pilots, and aligns sales/CS with engineering to close deals and drive adoption.”

“Cloud-focused engineer experienced deploying and stabilizing complex production systems that span APIs, infrastructure, and automated workflows, with a strong observability and safe-release mindset (feature flags/canaries/rollbacks). Has hands-on, customer-facing incident leadership, including executing DR regional failover during an AWS us-east-1 outage to maintain service and reportedly save a client ~$10M.”

“Built and deployed a production Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) platform in a healthcare setting to automate clinical documentation review and summarization, targeting near-real-time, explainable outputs. Emphasizes grounded generation to reduce hallucinations, latency optimizations (chunking/embedding reuse), and PHI-safe workflows with access controls, plus strong orchestration experience using Apache Airflow.”

“Robotics software engineer who built and owned core navigation components for a TurtleBot in ROS/ROS2 and Gazebo, including an RRT-based planner, waypoint-to-velocity motion planning, and PID trajectory tracking. Demonstrates strong real-time debugging skills (control-loop timing under CPU load), costmap/occupancy-grid tuning, and distributed ROS2 communication design using DDS/QoS, plus Docker and CI/CD automation experience from Keysight.”

“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.”

“Software engineer with strong compliance-domain experience who built a customer-facing compliance and reporting dashboard using React/TypeScript with Spring Boot microservices. Demonstrates mature production engineering practices—contract-first APIs, event-driven architecture (Kafka/RabbitMQ), caching (Redis), and robust CI/CD + observability (Prometheus/Grafana/ELK)—and also created a Python-based audit automation tool adopted into the standard release process.”

“Built a production RAG-based GenAI copilot backend at Aetna using Python/FastAPI, GPT-4, LangChain, and Azure AI Search, deployed on AKS with Prometheus/Grafana observability. Owned the system end-to-end (ingestion through deployment) and improved peak-time reliability by addressing vector search and embedding bottlenecks with Redis caching, index optimization, and async processing, plus added anti-hallucination guardrails via retrieval confidence thresholds.”

“Quota-carrying SaaS seller with experience at Splunk and Everlaw, spanning security/observability and legal tech. Strong in self-sourcing (events + outbound), running full-cycle deals ($50K–$75K ACV), and winning competitively via ROI/TCO narratives while navigating security/compliance and legal/procurement. Has also helped build a repeatable GTM motion in a high-ambiguity segment by refining ICP, messaging, and sales process rigor (MEDDICC, Gong, CRM hygiene).”

“Product-focused full-stack engineer with Walmart and Dell experience who built and shipped a real-time engagement dashboard end-to-end (Kafka Streams, Spring Boot, React/TypeScript/D3) used daily by business teams, moving them from next-day reports to real-time decisioning. Strong in performance/reliability (Redis caching cut latency ~40%, 90%+ test coverage, Prometheus/CloudWatch monitoring) and production operations on AWS/EKS including handling a cascading failure from a memory leak with zero-downtime rollback and redeploy.”

“Engineering lead/player-coach working on project management software, owning a high-impact scheduling algorithm rewrite focused on performance, maintainability, and documentation after prior team turnover caused regressions. Previously at EOX Vantage, helped an insurance client modernize monolithic workflows by scoping ambiguous requirements into a roadmap and shipping a day-one MVP before iterating with value-add features.”

“Infrastructure/Unix engineer with production PowerHA/HACMP operations experience (resource groups, service IPs, shared storage) who has executed planned failovers and recovered a real outage involving a SAN driver crash and manual Oracle recovery (restored service in ~15 minutes with zero data loss). Also supports cloud DevOps practices including CI/CD security scanning (SonarQube, Snyk), container registry/versioning, and Terraform Cloud-based IaC across AWS and GCP with PR/Jenkins-driven plan-and-apply workflows.”
