Junior Software Engineer specializing in AI platforms, distributed systems, and cloud infrastructure

Dublin, CA1y exp

“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.”

“Senior engineer with experience at Micro Focus/HPE (now OpenText) supporting enterprise customers on monitoring platform deployments, upgrades, and ongoing product use. Brings hands-on expertise in operations agents, agentless integrations, security-related upgrade troubleshooting, and cross-functional escalation with engineering to keep customer environments stable and successful.”

“Built and deployed a full-stack web product for international football fans visiting the U.S. for FIFA, owning everything from crawling and aggregating event data to frontend, backend, deployment, and maintenance. Particularly strong in data-heavy product work, using LLMs, Google Maps API, and SQL/RPC patterns to improve data quality, speed implementation, and support a polished user experience.”

“Solo developer who built and operated an AI debate product end-to-end, from architecture and deployment through observability and post-launch stabilization. They show strong practical LLM production experience—using Vercel AI SDK, OpenAI, Langfuse, Mem0, and custom RAG—while improving latency to sub-4 seconds, driving failures near zero, and cutting LLM usage by 20%.”

“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).”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in real-time IoT and event-driven platforms

5y exp

“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.”

“Engineer working on a private cloud management platform who combines AI-assisted coding with formal methods, especially TLA+, to improve reliability in distributed systems. They led adoption of TLA+ for critical control-plane and task-queue components, catching substantial classes of bugs and building CI automation to keep specs aligned with code.”

Intern Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and backend engineering

Remote, USA1y exp

“Frontend engineer with hands-on experience building real-time collaborative and visualization-heavy React applications, including a document editor using WebSockets, Redis, and PostgreSQL. Demonstrates strong performance instincts, with a concrete example of reducing dashboard load time from 3.2s to 2.1s at MegaViz while improving responsiveness for streaming data interfaces.”

“ML engineer with hands-on experience building production AI systems spanning agentic AI, RAG, LLM automation, fraud detection, and predictive analytics. At Origami Risk, they designed and implemented an enterprise RAG platform end to end using LangChain, LangGraph, vector search, and AWS Bedrock to improve internal knowledge retrieval, reduce manual effort, and raise response quality across teams.”
