Senior Backend/Full-Stack Engineer specializing in data platforms and cloud microservices

Chicago, Illinois7y exp

“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.”

“Backend-focused engineer with experience building high-volume policy management and enterprise pricing systems, including Django/FastAPI/Flask services, Kafka-based async workflows, and Prometheus/Grafana observability. While they have not yet shipped a customer-facing AI agent or production LLM integration, they bring strong cloud, API, reliability, and scalable system design fundamentals that translate well to responsible AI infrastructure work.”

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and workflow platforms

Sacramento, CA7y exp

“Full-stack engineer with strong React and Python backend depth who has owned complex analytical products end-to-end, from performant UIs to FastAPI services, SQLAlchemy data models, Redis caching, and production observability. Particularly compelling is their 0→1 automation work in the water systems domain, where they built Airflow- and LLM-powered workflows that reduced manual notification and correction work by 90%.”

“Senior backend/full-stack engineer with strong e-commerce and marketplace experience in scaling-stage startup environments. Stands out for redesigning a high-traffic inventory reservation system with Redis and PostgreSQL to achieve zero oversell incidents, while also contributing across Go, Python, and React/Next.js production systems and vendor-platform integrations.”

“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).”
