Senior Full-Stack & Machine Learning Engineer specializing in scalable SaaS and cloud AI

Remote, Pakistan7y exp

“Frontend engineer who led an enterprise self-serve analytics dashboard end-to-end using a micro-frontend React/TypeScript architecture with strong integration discipline (contracts, CI gates, ADRs). Demonstrated measurable performance wins (35% faster LCP) through code splitting, lazy loading, and tighter Redux subscriptions, and uses feature flags plus automated E2E coverage for controlled rollouts.”

“Built and productionized a real-time social-media sentiment analysis system used by a marketing team to monitor brand/campaign performance. Experienced in orchestrating LLM workflows with LangChain (validation → prompting → parsing → post-processing), plus monitoring, retraining, and RAG-style retrieval using embeddings/vector stores to keep outputs reliable over time.”

“Backend/AI engineer with production experience in legal tech: built a high-scale licensing/subscription API (FastAPI/Postgres/Stripe) and shipped a RAG-based chatbot for an eDiscovery platform. Designed a robust legal document ingestion workflow that processes thousands of documents into a searchable vector index with clear retry/escalation logic, and has demonstrated measurable Postgres performance wins (200ms to 10ms) using EXPLAIN ANALYZE and composite indexing.”

Hayward, CA8y exp

“Full-stack/backend engineer with startup-style experience spanning healthcare and B2B infrastructure SaaS. Has worked across Python, Go, and React/TypeScript, including migrating services from Node.js to Go, building microservices and dashboards, and delivering measurable API performance gains through database tuning and Redis caching.”

“IBM Power/AIX engineer who has owned a large production estate (20+ Power9/Power10 frames and 400+ LPARs) with vHMC and dual-VIOS HA. Has hands-on incident recovery experience (NPIV/RMC issues, LPM restores) and PowerHA failovers, plus modern DevOps exposure using Terraform on AWS and CI/CD with GitHub Actions/Jenkins (including deploying AI/RAG and vision workloads).”

“Backend-focused engineer who built a time-sensitive data retrieval system for a source with no public API, using an AWS EC2-hosted persistent browser session plus a PostgreSQL TTL caching layer—cutting manual retrieval by 99% and achieving sub-10-second average retrieval. Emphasizes production security (Secrets Manager, encryption, IP allowlisting, rate limiting) and robustness via testing and edge-case handling (atomic file operations).”

“Systems-focused C++ engineer who built a 32-bit CPU simulator end-to-end (custom ISA, full memory model, fetch-decode-execute loop) and solved tricky recursion/stack-frame correctness issues through heavy instrumentation and tracing. Has strong Linux and user-kernel boundary experience (procfs) plus modern build/test tooling (Docker, CI/CD, pytest), and is confident ramping quickly into ROS/ROS2 despite not having used it directly.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in FinTech and real-time systems

Bellevue, WA7y exp

“Full-stack product engineer with a strong real-time systems focus: built and rolled out a WebSocket-based notifications system (with robust reconnect/resync and event ordering protections) that cut update latency to under 200ms. Also owned a workflow automation platform backend in FastAPI (JWT/RBAC, versioned APIs, standardized errors), designed the PostgreSQL schema for workflows/tasks/executions, and operated deployments on AWS ECS Fargate with blue-green CI/CD and performance stabilization via caching and autoscaling.”

“Manual QA tester with experience testing a Germany-based medical website, including writing/executing test cases, regression/functional testing, and clear bug reporting using Jira. Interested in transitioning into console game testing; PlayStation user and actively uses AI tools (ChatGPT/Gemini) to generate test ideas and improve bug report clarity.”

“Full-stack system analyst/programmer at PeakPlay Sports (startup) who built an AI "coach" product end-to-end in ~2 months, using a LangGraph-orchestrated multi-agent architecture with a FastAPI backend. Shipped production RAG grounded in athlete history (OpenAI embeddings + vector store) with guardrails and a structured eval loop (golden set + LLM-judge + human review) to improve engagement and reduce hallucinations.”

“Student full-stack builder shipping real products: a mobile app (Sirat) where they delivered end-to-end theme settings with testing and fast post-launch fixes, and a sports web app (Scorva) that generates AI game summaries from game stats with Postgres-backed caching to control LLM costs. Available for full-time work starting June 2026 and targeting $95k–$110k.”
