“Built and productionized an LLM-powered loan decisioning agent at Bank of America, integrating RAG with microservices to automate creditworthiness assessment and recommendations. Emphasizes real-world reliability and governance (EKS autoscaling, observability, SOC2/PCI security controls), and drove measurable outcomes including 20% faster loan decisions and a reduction in agent failures/fallbacks to under 2% through schema enforcement and confidence-based routing.”

Senior DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer specializing in cloud infrastructure

Atlanta, GA5y exp

“GCP-focused database/platform engineer with hands-on production experience operating Cloud SQL at scale, especially around performance tuning, reliability, and day-2 operations. Has supported migration from a single-instance database setup to a more scalable GCP architecture and built Terraform/Python automation for provisioning and recovery workflows.”

“Built and owned end-to-end production systems for a healthcare platform, including a predictive task recommendation feature (React + FastAPI + ML on AWS ECS) that cut backlog 20% and saved coordinators ~10 hours/week. Also productionized an AI-native RAG system (vector DB + LLM) delivering 40% faster query resolution, and led phased modernization of a monolithic FastAPI service into async microservices using feature flags and canary releases.”

“Full-stack engineer who built and owned an end-to-end real-time engineering dashboard for Medtronic robotic surgical systems, streaming high-frequency sensor/kinematic data via Python WebSockets to a React/TypeScript UI. Differentiates through performance/reliability practices (stable core vs experimental layer, observability, caching) and high-impact 3D visualization + session playback that became part of engineers' regular bench-testing workflows.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native microservices and analytics platforms

Remote, USA4y exp

“JavaScript engineer with a track record of diagnosing and fixing real performance issues end-to-end—profiled a charting library freeze on large datasets, rewrote layout logic to batch updates, added tests, and got the PR merged upstream. Also has experience stabilizing backend services in ambiguous, fast-moving projects by defining priorities, tightening API contracts, and owning delivery through deployment.”

“GenAI/ML engineer with hands-on experience building production financial intelligence and document summarization systems at Citibank. Stands out for combining LLM fine-tuning, hybrid RAG, multi-agent workflows, and strong MLOps/observability practices to deliver measurable business impact, including 60% faster analyst retrieval, 31% higher precision, and 99%+ uptime.”

“ML/AI engineer with strong production ownership across predictive ML and Generative AI systems. They’ve delivered measurable business impact through real-time churn/drop-off prediction, RAG-based document QA, and scalable LLM optimization, with a consistent focus on reliability, safety, latency, and developer productivity.”

“Full-stack engineer with financial services experience (Lincoln Financial) who owned a customer-facing financial portal end-to-end using TypeScript/React and Node/Express. Has hands-on microservices and RabbitMQ event-driven workflows, addressing scale issues like retries/duplicates with idempotency and traceable logging, and built an internal real-time ops/support dashboard to improve monitoring and incident response.”

“Infrastructure/operations engineer with hands-on production IBM Power/AIX (AIX 7.x, VIOS, HMC) and PowerHA/HACMP clustering experience, including DLPAR changes, failover testing, and incident recovery. Also delivers modern cloud DevOps work—GitHub Actions CI/CD for Docker-to-Kubernetes on AWS and Terraform-based provisioning of core AWS infrastructure (VPC/EKS/RDS/IAM) with controlled rollouts and drift checks.”

“Backend/AI engineer who has built production Spring Boot APIs on AWS (JWT auth, Redis/MySQL) and solved a real-world silent data integrity issue by implementing idempotency keys plus DB constraints/transactions. Also shipped an LLM-based document Q&A feature using a RAG pipeline with evaluation + human review, and designed multi-step agent workflows with verification, retries, and escalation guardrails.”

“Built and shipped production LLM agents including an AI patient appointment assistant for Kyron Medical that automated specialist matching and end-to-end booking with email/SMS confirmations and a voice mode. Strong focus on production reliability (double-booking prevention with DB constraints and pre-write checks), deterministic multi-step orchestration with LangGraph, and rigorous monitoring/evaluation using LangSmith trace replay for prompt regression testing.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in AI/ML and full-stack systems

San Jose, CA3y exp

“Data Scientist (2–3 years) at ZS Associates who has built and productionized agentic LLM systems, including a LangGraph-based multi-LLM prompt-optimization pipeline for entity extraction deployed as a Spring Boot microservice via Jenkins. Also built an Insightmate.ai chatbot and improved its RAG accuracy by diagnosing vector retrieval issues and implementing HyDE query expansion, while partnering with sales and pharma stakeholders to drive adoption (e.g., Zimmer Biomet platform migration into a multi-year partnership).”

“Built from scratch a social media analytics MVP featuring an LLM-powered semantic search agent that became a core part of the product experience within a 6-week deadline. Stands out for focusing on production readiness early—retrieval-first design, explicit tool constraints, structured outputs, idempotent services, and practical eval/monitoring loops rather than demo-only AI.”

“Infrastructure/Platform engineer with deep production ownership of large IBM Power/AIX estates (70 LPARs, dual VIOS, HMC across two data centers), including live DLPAR tuning and PowerHA clustering for Oracle/WebSphere. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC experience—built GitHub Actions pipelines deploying to Kubernetes with OIDC/Vault secrets and implemented Terraform to provision AWS EKS/VPC/IAM/ALB/RDS with drift detection and controlled rollouts.”
