Junior Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and AI/LLM RAG platforms

San Jose, CA2y exp

“Full-stack engineer who built and operated a data-driven analytics platform using Next.js App Router/Server Components and TypeScript, owning post-launch monitoring and performance/stability work. Demonstrated measurable wins in analytics performance (e.g., cutting query latency from ~1s to ~200ms) through indexing, query-plan analysis, and precomputation/caching, and has experience designing durable multi-step backend workflows with retries, idempotency, DLQ, and time-correct ordering.”

“Application-focused software engineer working on AI-heavy products, with hands-on experience building end-to-end document processing, retrieval, and configurable workflow systems. Particularly strong in combining React/TypeScript UX, FastAPI/Postgres backend design, and LLM workflow reliability improvements through validation, prompt iteration, and reusable abstractions.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on experience building end-to-end data pipelines and Spring Boot services, including systems processing up to 1 million records per day. Demonstrates practical strength in reliability engineering, API versioning, external data ingestion, and early-stage delivery with CI/CD, observability, and pragmatic architecture choices.”

“Robotics software engineer focused on sim-to-real deployment: built an Isaac Sim/Isaac Lab PPO training pipeline with domain randomization for vision-conditioned quadruped locomotion and integrated a RealSense D435i into a ROS2 stack on hardware. Also worked on an autonomous surface vessel, standardizing ROS2 interfaces across Jetson, microcontroller, GPS/IMU and motor controllers, using structured logging/replay to debug real-time oscillations and improve path tracking.”

“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.”

“Full-stack engineer who built a live-streaming edtech platform at KratosIQ, owning the entire frontend and the backend streaming layer. Notably migrated the system from a P2P mesh to an SFU architecture to handle scaling under heavy load, and delivered measurable React performance gains (450ms to 40ms render time) validated via Lighthouse and web vitals.”

“AI/ML engineer who shipped a production blood-test report understanding and personalized supplement recommendation product, using a LangGraph multi-agent pipeline on AWS serverless with OCR via Bedrock and RAG over vetted clinical research. Also built end-to-end recommender system pipelines at ASANTe using Airflow (ingestion, embeddings/features, training, registry, batch scoring/monitoring) with KPI reporting to Tableau, with a strong focus on safety, evaluation, and measurable reliability.”

“Backend/ML engineer who has built both enterprise data pipelines and real-time AI products: modular Python (Flask/FastAPI) services integrating automation scripts and low-latency ML inference (MediaPipe, PyTorch) plus OpenAI-powered feedback. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (~30% faster HR workflows; ~40% faster AWS pipelines across 100+ Oscar Health feeds) and strong multi-tenant/data-isolation patterns (schema-based isolation, RBAC, microservices).”

“Cloud/SRE-style engineer at TDS supporting revenue-critical transportation SaaS platforms on AWS/GCP with Kubernetes. Has hands-on experience leading high-impact production work including DDoS mitigation, zero-downtime MSSQL→PostgreSQL migration using CDC, and building secure GitHub Actions + ArgoCD delivery pipelines and Terraform-based GKE infrastructure.”

Senior Golang Engineer specializing in distributed systems and cloud-native microservices

Texas, USA5y exp

“Software engineer with experience at UWorld and Infosys, focused on full-stack product delivery and backend reliability. Stands out for owning analytics/onboarding experiences end-to-end while also building resilient distributed systems, reusable service primitives, and safe multi-tenant configuration guardrails.”

“Backend/platform engineer with payments and insurance domain experience (Cognizant), owning high-volume production systems end-to-end. Shipped a Spring Boot payment tokenization service with strong observability and phased migration that cut transaction latency ~30% and improved payment efficiency ~25%. Also productionized an ML-driven financial health/risk analytics pipeline with near real-time dashboards across 70+ schools, emphasizing interpretability, data quality, and drift monitoring.”

“Backend/data engineer who built an enterprise LLM assistant (AI Genie) at Broadband Insights using a LangChain + GPT-4 + Pinecone RAG pipeline to automate broadband analytics reporting. Developed Python/Dagster ETL processing 10M+ records/day and improved data freshness by 60%, with production-grade scalability patterns (async workers, containerized microservices, Kubernetes) and strong multi-tenant isolation practices.”

“Backend engineer at Esurgi focused on real-time clinical workflow systems, improving API reliability, performance, and security. Has hands-on experience with FastAPI/Pydantic, JWT/RBAC and row-level data isolation, plus Kafka-based real-time processing—including fixing duplicate-processing edge cases via idempotency and offset management and rolling out refactors safely with feature flags and staged deployments.”

“Full-stack engineer who built an email/SMS marketing platform from the ground up using PHP (Yii2/Laravel) and JS (jQuery/Vue components), including campaign reporting, A/B testing, and extensive ESP/SMS integrations (Mailgun/Mailjet/Twilio plus AWS SES/SNS). Notably scaled the system for very large contact ingestion by migrating from MySQL to ClickHouse and implemented reliability measures like retries, logging, and rate limiting.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in QA automation and full-stack web development

Los Angeles, CA7y exp

“Automation and customer-facing technical specialist with experience at QA Wolf and Kalmar, taking Playwright E2E testing from prototype scripts into CI-gated production pipelines (80%+ automated coverage). Also trained both software teams and industrial operations audiences (Fleet View for automated straddle carriers) and partnered with sales/customer teams to translate technical results (e.g., Siemens PLC updates, QA ROI) into adoption and faster closes.”
