Vetted OpenTelemetry Professionals

“Backend engineer who built and shipped an end-to-end AI outreach product (LazyMails) combining a LinkedIn-scraping Chrome extension with a FastAPI/Postgres backend and Gemini-powered email generation, achieving major personal productivity gains. Also has enterprise experience at TCS on Humana’s 500k+ user wellness platform running Kubernetes microservices with Azure DevOps CI/CD, plus Kafka-based real-time eligibility event streaming and GitOps-driven operations.”

“Robotics software engineer focused on backend/integration for indoor autonomous mobile robots, with hands-on ROS 2 experience integrating Nav2/AMCL/TF2 and LiDAR/camera pipelines. Emphasizes production readiness—robust failure recovery, QoS-tuned distributed communication, and strong observability (logging/health checks)—validated through Gazebo simulation, sensor-data replay debugging, and Docker-based CI/CD deployment.”

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer who builds and operates Spring Boot microservices with React/TypeScript frontends, using Kafka/RabbitMQ for event-driven workflows. Created an internal ops dashboard for Support/SRE with tracing, alert correlation, and self-serve actions, improving MTTR and reducing escalations while maintaining regulatory-grade reliability and security.”

“End-to-end engineer focused on AI-native enterprise systems, including a production generative knowledge platform using RAG + semantic search over internal documentation (React, Python/Flask, GPU-hosted NLP models, Pinecone) with strong CI/CD and observability. Reports concrete outcomes including 40% faster knowledge access and ~75% employee adoption, and has led incremental cloud-native modernization using feature flags, parallel runs, canary releases, and regression testing.”

“Master’s program project lead who built and deployed a real-time sound recognition system (Flask + React Native + ML) that was adopted by 200+ university students. Demonstrates strong production engineering and cross-layer debugging—solving latency, unreliable uploads, and observability gaps using microservice separation, chunked/idempotent transfers, and packet-capture-driven network diagnosis—plus AWS/on-prem and IoT edge-to-cloud integration experience.”

“Backend-focused engineer who owned an AI mentoring workflow platform built in Django with LangGraph multi-agent orchestration, optimizing it to stay under 200ms latency while scaling past 1,200 active users using profiling, caching, load testing, and OpenTelemetry-style tracing. Also has hands-on experience containerizing and deploying Python/ML services to AWS ECS via GitHub Actions/GitOps, and building reliable real-time pipelines with webhooks and Redis queues (idempotency, backpressure, DLQ).”

“LLM/RAG-focused engineer who repeatedly takes agentic workflows from impressive demos to dependable production using rigorous evals, SLOs, and deep observability. Has led high-impact incident mitigation (22-minute MTTR during a major sale) and developer enablement workshops, and partnered with sales to close a $410k ARR enterprise deal with a tailored RAG pilot (FastAPI/pgvector/Okta/InfoSec-ready).”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across Python/Flask microservices and AWS serverless/data platforms (Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, Glue/PySpark). Demonstrated strong reliability and operations mindset (JWT/RBAC, retries/timeouts/circuit breakers, CloudWatch/SNS alerting) and measurable performance wins (SQL report runtime cut from 10 minutes to 30 seconds). Seeking ~$150k base and cannot travel for onsite meetings for the next 5–6 months due to family medical constraints.”

“Stony Brook Fall 2024 capstone contributor who built a ROS2-based warehouse mobile robot prototype, owning perception and SLAM integration end-to-end. Strong in real-time robotics optimization on Jetson Orin (TensorRT/CUDA, ROS2 tracing/Nsight) and in distributed ROS2 communications (DDS discovery/QoS, MAVLink-to-ROS2 bridging), with a full simulation/testing/deployment toolchain (Gazebo, CI tests, Docker/K3s).”

“Software engineer with limited robotics background but deep experience building end-to-end document ingestion and image understanding systems, including a CAD-specific pipeline using a custom model to extract components and bounding boxes for user-facing visualization and Q&A. Also brings strong infrastructure/DevOps skills (Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, Terraform) with emphasis on reliability, cost optimization, and uptime.”

“Built a contract and customer documentation retrieval solution for Urban Studio, designing a RAG + Elasticsearch hybrid search stack (RRF + cross-encoder reranking) with a strong emphasis on chunking/data quality and hallucination reduction. Experienced in diagnosing LLM workflow issues via observability traces and tailoring technical demos to developer concerns like reliability and high concurrency.”

“Backend engineer experienced in evolving high-scale legacy on-prem systems into cloud-native, event-driven microservices on AWS/Kubernetes (noted peak traffic ~1.5M QPS). Strong focus on reliability engineering and operational excellence—SLO-driven observability, GitOps/canary rollouts, chaos testing, and preventing cascading failures (e.g., retry-storm mitigation).”

“Founding engineer at a startup building LLM/agentic workflows for public-safety customers, with hands-on experience delivering a hybrid on-prem + secure cloud solution to meet strict compliance needs. Implemented OpenTelemetry observability for multimodal agentic systems behind closed networks and used the resulting traces to optimize prompting/token usage for customer-specific security integrations. Regularly runs technical workshops and supports pre/post-sales by translating integration feedback into product roadmap decisions.”
