Senior Java Full-Stack Developer specializing in microservices and cloud platforms

5y exp

“Frontend engineer who has led enterprise-scale UI delivery end-to-end on a microservices platform, designing modular Angular SPAs (v12-17) tightly aligned to Spring Boot REST APIs. Emphasizes quality and release velocity through layered testing (Karma/Jasmine), CI/CD automation (Jenkins/Azure DevOps), performance tuning with RxJS/lazy loading, and incremental rollouts with close product/design/QA collaboration.”

“Full-stack product engineer who owned a live-events digital ticketing platform end-to-end, including blockchain-based ticket validation and high-traffic booking flows. Stands out for combining Angular/React frontend work with Java/Spring Boot backend architecture, plus strong production reliability practices around concurrency control, queues, observability, and UX optimization.”

“Backend engineer currently at Citigroup working on real-time transaction processing systems with Kafka. Stands out for using AI tools pragmatically in a regulated banking environment to improve debugging, testing, and developer productivity while keeping human control over architecture, security, and performance decisions.”

“ML/AI practitioner in healthcare (Syneos Health) who has deployed production clinical NLP and risk models. Built a BERT-based physician-note information extraction system on Docker + AWS SageMaker (reported ~42% retrieval improvement) and automated retraining/deployment with Airflow and drift detection, while partnering closely with clinicians to drive adoption (reported ~18% readmission reduction).”

“Backend engineer with Walmart experience owning Python data-processing/integration services alongside ASP.NET Core. Has deployed containerized services to Kubernetes via OpenShift with Jenkins CI/CD and GitOps-style config management, and has led phased migrations modernizing VB6/classic ASP apps to ASP.NET Core on OpenShift/Azure. Also implemented Kafka-based real-time pipelines with a focus on reliability, idempotency, and observability.”

“Deloitte engineer who built and shipped AI-powered, Kafka-driven workflow automation for transportation/document processing, including LLM-based semantic search. Strong in production reliability (idempotency, offset management, retries), observability (Datadog/CloudWatch), and database performance tuning (PostgreSQL/Flyway), with measurable latency improvements.”

“Software engineer with payments-domain experience (Visa) building real-time transaction monitoring and analytics systems. Strong end-to-end ownership across Spring Boot/Kafka microservices, PostgreSQL modeling, and AWS/Kubernetes operations, plus React+TypeScript dashboards—focused on low-latency processing, secure APIs, and zero-downtime production releases.”

“Software engineer with experience across TCS, Rakuten, and USC who has owned production integrations and data pipelines end-to-end. Notably improved a trading platform payment flow by replacing fragile polling with a webhook-driven status system with robust fallbacks, and has shipped LLM-assisted design-to-webpage automation plus evaluation-driven prompt iteration (NYT Connections).”

Senior AI Engineer specializing in production GenAI systems

San Francisco, CA8y exp

“AI engineer who has shipped production LLM systems end-to-end, including a natural-language-to-SQL analytics copilot for career advisors that achieved ~95% query success through schema grounding, access controls, and automated regression testing with golden queries. Also builds LangGraph-orchestrated multi-step agents (resume analysis, recommendations) and RAG pipelines (PDF ingestion + FAISS) and partners closely with non-technical users to drive adoption and trust.”

“Backend engineer with experience at Visa and Ansel, owning cloud-native, event-driven microservices end-to-end in high-volume and business-critical environments. Stands out for combining scalable Java/Spring/Kafka architecture with strong production rigor, incident ownership, and a pragmatic approach to AI workflow integration that emphasizes guardrails over blind model trust.”

“Software engineer with a CS/Computer Engineering background who has worked on ML/NLP (Hugging Face, clinical NLP, text generation and structured extraction) and has a school robotics project integrating a trained ML model with microprocessor-controlled hardware to drive motor movement and writing. Currently focused on building and deploying applications and ML models to AWS/Azure using Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD; targeting ~$150K compensation.”

“Full-stack engineer focused on enterprise, cloud-native microservices—building Spring Boot backends and React/Angular front ends with strong security (OAuth/JWT), AWS infrastructure (RDS/S3), and containerized deployments (Docker/Kubernetes). Has delivered data-heavy order/account/transaction platforms and healthcare solutions including EHR integrations for secure patient data exchange, with emphasis on testing, performance tuning, and reliability (load testing).”

“Infrastructure/DevOps engineer (Vidmob) focused on AWS + containers, owning GitLab CI/CD and Terraform-managed environments. Led a high-impact CI incident by correlating runner queue time, Docker pull latency, and NAT egress; implemented ECR pull-through caching and VPC endpoints to restore performance and then standardized the fix in Terraform for future scale-ups.”

“AI engineer with hands-on production experience building an end-to-end RAG system that reduced document-answering time from hours to minutes, improving accuracy through chunk overlap and hybrid BM25+semantic retrieval. Also built a LangGraph-based agent that researches company financial news via web search (Google Serper), using Pydantic structured outputs and checkpointing for reliability; experienced collaborating with non-technical stakeholders at JPMC and communicating ROI.”

“Backend/platform engineer with production ownership of high-volume transaction analytics and fraud monitoring services built in Java/Spring Boot. Has scaled data processing platforms (including healthcare datasets) and operated Kafka-based event pipelines with schema versioning, deduplication, and replay/backfill workflows, using strong observability via CloudWatch/Grafana and CI/CD with Jenkins.”

“Backend engineer with experience spanning regulated financial systems at Oracle Financial Services and early-stage product building at Apli.ai.
