Vetted Performance Optimization Professionals

“Unity/Meta Quest programmer with 2 years of experience shipping two award-winning VR games (Spatial Ops and Twenty Guys) now live on the Meta Store with 4.8+ ratings. Contributed major gameplay/tech systems including co-location, an in-game map editor, and active ragdoll/physics interactions, and has also built Unity apps largely solo spanning rendering, shaders, serialization, VFX, and async/state management.”

“Full-stack engineer who built and iterated a CRM dashboard at ReplyQuick by sitting with end users, prioritizing blockers, and shipping frequent updates—improving usability and performance enough to replace a spreadsheet workflow within ~2 months. Demonstrates strong security fundamentals (OAuth2/JWT + RBAC) and practical microservices experience (decoupling a CRM API from a PDF-processing service via async processing and status tracking).”

“Full-stack TypeScript engineer who has owned a real-time workflow/communication platform end-to-end in production (Node/TS + React, Postgres/Redis, Kafka, Docker/CI/CD). Demonstrates strong distributed-systems pragmatism—designing for failure with retries, DLQs, idempotency keys, and atomic writes—plus operational practices like structured logging, monitoring, and zero-downtime deployments.”

Junior Systems Designer specializing in Unreal Engine 5 gameplay & AI systems

Conroe, TX5y exp

“UE5 gameplay/systems designer focused on Blueprint-driven, shipping-quality progression and AI systems. Built and shipped a wave/difficulty progression backbone for a top-down survival game (HUD + SaveGame + robust state/edge-case handling) and optimized a multi-enemy "Weeping Angel" puppet AI in a horror project by replacing heavy Tick logic with timer-based, centralized observation checks for scalable performance.”

“Product/UX designer who built a cloud-based data management and visualization system for healthcare and manufacturing, translating script-driven and highly technical workflows into guided, step-based experiences. Strong in progressive disclosure, role-based defaults, and trust-building UI patterns, with hands-on prototyping in Figma and close design-engineering collaboration (HTML/CSS, component systems, working TypeScript familiarity) to ship scalable, accessible designs.”

“JavaScript engineer with open-source library contribution experience, including diagnosing a validation-related bug, shipping a tested fix, and improving documentation with practical examples and edge-case guidance to reduce repeated community questions. Emphasizes profiling-driven performance work, small safe refactors, and proactive ownership in fast-moving, unstructured teams.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native microservices and FinTech

USA5y exp

“Software engineer/product-minded builder who owns customer-facing products end-to-end and ships in 1–2 week increments using CI/CD, automated testing, and feature flags. Built a TypeScript/React/Node platform that cut page load times by 40% and scaled to 3x concurrent users, and designed RabbitMQ-based microservices with Prometheus/Grafana monitoring. Also delivered an internal real-time support analytics dashboard that reduced response times by 30%.”

“Repeat founder/CTO with hands-on experience raising capital from friends and family, angels, corporate sources, federal grants, private equity, and venture capital. Built a startup in a software business incubator, later sold the company, and went on to serve as an Engineering Manager at the acquirer inside the Plug and Play accelerator ecosystem.”

“Backend/data platform engineer who owned an enterprise Django REST + PostgreSQL reporting backend and built Python ETL pipelines to normalize 3M+ legacy customer records, improving data reliability by 85%. Strong Kubernetes/GitOps practitioner (Helm, ArgoCD, Jenkins/GitHub Actions) with real-world production debugging experience, plus Kafka streaming at 5M events/day and a zero-downtime monolith-to-event-driven microservices migration on AWS that cut infra costs by 42%.”

“Frontend engineer who led an end-to-end responsive enterprise banking platform in a regulated environment, emphasizing domain-based architecture, strict TypeScript contracts, and explicit state-machine-like flow modeling. Implemented Redux + React Query state separation, claimed 100% Jest coverage, and improved Jenkins CI/CD to speed deployments ~30% while also resolving major re-render performance bottlenecks.”

“Unity VR developer with long-standing experience shipping on the Oculus/Meta Quest ecosystem (dating back to before the Facebook acquisition). Recently drove a high-stakes OpenXR migration for a live service app using release branches, QA, feature flags, and staged rollouts. On Border Bots VR, owned the robot character editor and major performance work, including a manual scene optimizer to reduce overdraw and enable higher-fidelity set pieces.”

“Backend engineer with Paycom experience who deployed a TypeScript web app on AWS and is re-architecting Stripe webhook handling using Kafka for durable, high-throughput asynchronous processing. Also delivered a freelance Python solution for a hospital that ingested sensor API data, normalized inconsistent readings, generated reports, and sent threshold-based email alerts while collaborating directly with hospital staff.”

Executive CTO specializing in cloud-native SaaS, multi-cloud infrastructure, and AI/ML

Los Angeles, CA28y exp

“Hands-on infrastructure and engineering leader (Director of Global Infrastructure / CTO) who has run double-digit multi-million dollar data center expansion and cloud migration programs and scaled teams rapidly (including offshore/nearshore). Strong AWS and microservices background (Lambda/SQS/SES), with experience balancing deep technical architecture work alongside investor/VC communications and fundraising-related responsibilities.”

“Unity/C# developer with hands-on ownership of an end-to-end multiplayer gameplay system using Unity Netcode for GameObjects, Relay, and Lobby, emphasizing modular architecture for stability and faster debugging/iteration. Also has VR experience building Meta Quest 2 training scenarios (e.g., fire extinguishment) with heavy performance optimization, and has leveraged ElevenLabs for rapid voice prototyping.”
