“Backend-focused engineer building customer support/order-tracking platforms with Java 17/Spring Boot microservices and a React/TypeScript frontend. Deep experience running event-driven systems on Kubernetes (Kafka, Redis, MySQL) with strong observability (Prometheus/Grafana/Splunk), SLOs, and safe deployment practices (feature flags, canaries). Also built an internal monitoring/debugging dashboard that consolidated metrics and logs for on-call engineers and was adopted by other teams to speed incident response.”

“Backend-focused engineer who built a hackathon trading vault (AntiSwan) integrating the Polymarket CLOB client and applying the Kelly Criterion for allocation decisions.

“Backend/platform engineer who owned high-volume Java/Spring Boot microservices on AWS (Kafka + RDS/DynamoDB) and has hands-on experience debugging complex production latency incidents across DB, JVM/GC, and async consumers. Also shipped applied AI features for ops, including an LLM-powered log analysis assistant and an incident-response agent with strong safety guardrails (schema-validated tool use, retries/backoff, and human-in-the-loop escalation).”

“Backend/AI engineer at Intuit who built a production AI-powered case assistant for support agents (FastAPI on AWS EKS) combining Postgres case data, OpenSearch retrieval with embedding reranking, and internal LLMs. Improved peak-season reliability by diagnosing P95/P99 timeout spikes and cutting P95 latency from ~800ms to <400ms via composite indexing, keyset pagination, connection pool tuning, and caching, while adding grounded-generation guardrails (evidence packs, confidence thresholds, fallbacks, human-in-the-loop).”

“FinTech/AI engineer who has shipped an end-to-end discrepancy-detection product for financial managers using Next.js, FastAPI/GraphQL, Pinecone, and AWS (with dev/staging/prod, observability, A/B testing, and documentation). Also built an AI-native “AI Genesis” system with agentic cyclic workflows, routing, and tool use, and has experience modernizing legacy systems via the strangler fig pattern while coordinating with senior stakeholders on a 5G autonomous simulation platform.”

“Built and operationalized intelligent pricing infrastructure for live event ticketing at StubHub, emphasizing iterative prototyping with traders and production-grade monitoring (Splunk, API/data-stream thresholding). Also partnered with customer-facing teams to drive adoption and helped win a significant consignment revenue-share deal by demoing the system to the Philadelphia 76ers and quantifying pricing efficacy and business impact.”

“Backend/ML systems engineer with experience at SDSC, UCSD, and Media.net, building production semantic dataset/model discovery using embeddings + Solr KNN and LLM-based intent/reranking at 5M+ dataset scale. Emphasizes offline/online separation for predictable serving, has delivered measurable gains (23% retrieval accuracy, 38% latency reduction) and helped secure a $3M+ NSF grant.”

“Data Analyst at U.S. Cellular who built production LLM solutions, including a Tableau-embedded chatbot that converts natural language questions into Oracle SQL and returns actionable KPI insights for non-technical users. Also authored MAD-CTI, a multi-agent LLM system for dark web hacker forum threat intelligence (published in IEEE Access) that outperformed single-agent approaches by 14%.”

“Bank of America engineer/product owner who built a real-time transaction insights and spending categorization platform using React/TypeScript and Spring Boot microservices with Kafka. Deep experience in event-driven architectures, performance tuning at peak banking loads, and reliability patterns (SLOs, observability, feature flags, DLQs). Also created an internal monitoring/alerting tool adopted across engineering and ops, cutting incident response time by 40%+.”

“Engineering leader with BCG consulting background who has built roadmaps and scaled AI and data platforms for pharma and manufacturing clients. Led architecture shifts (Django monolith to event-driven microservices) for high-volume IoT SaaS products, improving deployment speed and enabling zero-downtime releases. Also established a near-shore engineering team in São Paulo and has managed distributed teams across multiple countries, leveraging strong stakeholder communication and a prior professional acting background for storytelling.”

“Frontend-focused JavaScript engineer who built Collabsync with real-time chat and file sharing using Socket.io, emphasizing reusable components, clear event contracts, and performance (minimizing React re-renders). Has experience at PwC building internal React/Angular dashboards and documenting insurance APIs, plus a contract role at Capital One delivering in fast-changing, loosely defined environments.”

“Applied LLMs and a graph-RAG architecture in Neo4j to automate an accounting firm's cross-checking of transactional books against tax regulations, indexing 1,000+ pages into a knowledge graph with vector search. Combines agentic LLM workflows with classical NER (Hugging Face/NLTK) and validates using expert-labeled held-out data plus precision/recall and measured accountant time savings after deployment.”

“Engineering leader from Blackline who has repeatedly rescued and delivered high-visibility products by resetting roadmaps, tightening execution (better specs/estimation), and accelerating team velocity. Scaled a distributed org from ~20 to ~40 engineers by building a new India team with strong hiring rubrics and governance-as-code/SDLC consistency. Also modernized legacy systems into microservices (Kafka/Kubernetes/Apigee) and drove hackathon-to-production innovation using Google Vertex AI.”

“Built a production LLM-driven personalization microservice for realtor.com using LangChain/LangSmith with an MCP tool layer and RAG to generate schema-constrained ranked listings in real time, replacing a rule-based engine and improving engagement/lead conversion.
