Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in event-driven data platforms

Bangalore, India5y exp

“Backend engineer with SAP experience modernizing a legacy Flask/PostgreSQL product master data platform into a modular, stateless, containerized service with Kafka-based background processing and improved observability. Also has hands-on academic/side-project experience operationalizing ML (NLP retrieval with TF-IDF/BERT via FastAPI and CV lane-edge detection inference APIs using PyTorch).”

“Built an AI-powered job outreach application for his own job search and took it from idea to production use, owning architecture, FastAPI backend, retrieval/generation pipeline, frontend workflow, deployment, and iteration. Especially compelling for teams needing a pragmatic full-stack engineer who can turn LLM-based product ideas into usable, maintainable tools with measurable workflow impact.”

Pavan Kishore Ramavath

Intern Software Engineer specializing in machine learning and backend systems

Leesburg, VA1y exp

“Built an AI-powered medical coding system at Clinpex that mapped 88,000+ clinical terms to standardized codes, achieving about 86% accuracy and cutting manual review time by over 80%. Brings hands-on backend ownership in a healthcare AI setting, with experience using semantic retrieval, LLM validation, and human review to handle ambiguity and reliability in a regulated domain.”

“Software engineer with experience at PayPal and JPMC building large-scale onboarding/account setup systems using React/TypeScript with Spring Boot/Node microservices and Kafka. Also built an Ignition-based SCADA monitoring tool at Mainspring Energy that became the default for manufacturing/test engineers by aggregating real-time telemetry and historical test data.”

Sahil Kakadiya

Screened

Junior Embedded Systems & Wireless Software Engineer specializing in BLE/Wi-Fi performance

Mountain View, CA2y exp

“Master’s capstone contributor on an autonomous rover navigation project, serving as an embedded/robotics software designer. Built low-level wheel control and odometry from encoders, integrated RealSense and RPLidar via ROS, and solved sensor-fusion/coordinate-frame issues by creating custom TF transforms. Used Gazebo to debug sim-to-real behavior and improved reliability on rough terrain by moving to dual-channel encoders when IMU data proved unreliable.”

“Built and deployed an on-prem, HIPAA-compliant LLM pipeline for oncology-focused clinical note generation and decision support, emphasizing grounded differential diagnosis and explainable reasoning via RAG to reduce hallucinations. Also created a LangGraph-based multi-agent academic paper search system integrating Tavily, arXiv, and Semantic Scholar with an orchestrator that routes tasks to specialized sub-agents.”

Vedant Kharwal

Screened

Intern AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI and applied machine learning

Mumbai, India1y exp

“New graduate with hands-on LLM work building a RAG pipeline (HNSW, lexical reranking/boosting, ReAct) and optimizing it through ablation to dramatically reduce latency. Also building a modular personal assistant with a custom wake word model, router-driven agent selection, and integrations like Spotify with secrets managed via .env.”

Anandapadmanabhan Santhosh

Screened

Junior Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and backend microservices

Bangalore, India1y exp

“Distributed systems engineer (ex-Nykaa, Licious) who built a PBFT-based Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus system in Go for a multi-node banking-style application, including checkpointing and automated failover/leader election. Strong production reliability background with Docker, Jenkins CI/CD, and monitoring/on-call troubleshooting using Grafana and New Relic; no direct ROS/robotics hardware experience yet but has highly transferable multi-node coordination expertise.”

Venu Venkata Surendra reddy Erusu

Screened

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in AI/ML and Cloud-Native Microservices

Syracuse, NY4y exp

“Research assistant at Syracuse University who owned a Python/FastAPI analytics backend for user-uploaded large datasets, using S3 streaming uploads and background workers for heavy processing. Has hands-on experience deploying Dockerized Python/Java microservices to AWS EKS with Jenkins-based CI/CD, plus Kafka-based event-driven pipelines and practical migration patterns (dependency mapping, dual-write, reconciliation) to minimize downtime.”

Felix Li

Screened

Intern Software Engineer specializing in data pipelines and full-stack web development

New York, NY1y exp

“Internship at Radar (geolocation infrastructure) where they owned automation of multiple geospatial data ingestion pipelines (including US/Canadian address ingestion), orchestrating Spark (Scala) jobs via Python-based Airflow and using GitOps-style CI/CD workflows.”

“Solutions Architect with hands-on experience driving AWS Partner Network engagements end-to-end (technical reviews, discovery, demos, incentives, marketplace/GTM) to enable revenue outcomes, even when not the direct closer. Known for navigating complex policy/compliance changes with high-revenue partners and for being a go-to Amazon Connect specialist in ambiguous customer environments; also collaborated with founders of a small health tech company on an AI agent concept tied to healthcare workflows and medical records.”
