Vetted React Professionals

“Frontend engineer experienced delivering React + TypeScript dashboards end-to-end, including real-time updates via WebSockets and scalable component architecture. Has improved inherited codebases by building shared component libraries and performance optimizations (lazy loading/memoization), reporting ~20% faster feature delivery, and ships major features with QA rigor and feature-flagged rollouts driven by analytics and user feedback.”

“Backend engineer with insurance/claims domain experience who modernized legacy claims processing systems to support AI-assisted claim review. Emphasizes production-ready API design in Python/FastAPI (schemas, async, caching, graceful degradation), strong observability with Prometheus, and layered security including JWT auth plus database row-level security (Supabase/Postgres).”

“Built and owned an enterprise AI document-processing deployment at an automotive tech startup, taking it from discovery to stabilization. Strong in production LLM/RAG systems and backend reliability, with measurable impact including 8,000+ documents processed monthly and turnaround time reduced from nearly 24 hours to about 3 hours.”

Mid-level Software Developer specializing in FinTech

Foster City, CA4y exp

“Software engineer with experience in a large financial institution, including ownership of an internal queue-based service and upgrades to an online credit dispute flow. Stands out for combining backend reliability work, stakeholder collaboration with bank operations staff, and a pragmatic focus on validation, monitoring, and developer experience.”

“Senior Unity developer who built a v2 narrative fiction engine end-to-end, including a portable TypeScript/JavaScript inkjs processing core and a Unity UI package that creators found significantly easier to use than the prior version. Has shipped cross-platform VR (Meta Quest) and mobile titles, implemented Unity Netcode multiplayer with host-authoritative flow, and integrated LLM-driven gameplay with automated agent-based testing and regression coverage.”

“Full-stack + ML engineer who built “Finsight,” a real-time financial risk platform (React/FastAPI/MongoDB/AWS Lambda) processing 2M+ records monthly, using sharding and Redis caching (60% DB load reduction) plus async and batch optimizations. Also has healthcare product experience at Apollo Healthcare, partnering directly with clinicians/admins to design and iterate EHR dashboards via Figma prototyping and user testing, and demonstrates clear system design thinking for real-time voice-to-LLM architectures.”

“Full-stack engineer from Vagaro who owned an end-to-end rebuild of a sluggish WordPress sales site into a Next.js 15 app hosted on Azure, adding Hygraph headless CMS, SSR, i18n, and a reusable component library. Instrumented Amplitude + A/B testing/heatmaps and reports a 10% sales lift post-launch; also has AWS ops experience (S3/IAM/CloudWatch) and has built ingestion pipelines including LLM-powered unstructured data processing with dead-letter handling.”

“Backend engineer with experience in fraud reporting and billing systems, building Java/Spring Boot services behind a React frontend and improving performance 40%+ with caching and SQL optimization while maintaining 99.9% uptime. Has hands-on experience migrating a monolith to microservices with incremental rollout, clear data ownership boundaries, and production-grade API reliability/security practices (JWT/OAuth, RBAC, row-level scoping).”

“Backend engineer who built and evolved the real-time networking/messaging backend for a cross-platform professional networking app (Make Connexions), optimizing for low-latency delivery, privacy, and strong consistency. Experienced scaling Python/FastAPI APIs with async + Redis, and leading safe refactors via versioned endpoints, feature flags, and backward-compatible migrations; strong production auth/RLS expertise including refresh-token rotation edge cases.”

“Backend/data engineer who reports building production Python services (FastAPI + JWT) backed by Postgres and Redis, and modernizing data workflows using AWS Glue + PySpark with S3/RDS. States experience delivering AWS solutions (S3, SES, Cognito) and using golden datasets/snapshot testing for migration parity, with many details withheld due to NDAs. Seeking fully remote work with a $300k base salary expectation.”

“Backend-focused Python engineer who has owned production FastAPI services deployed on Kubernetes, including CI/CD (GitLab CI to ECR) and GitOps delivery via ArgoCD/Helm. Has hands-on experience with complex reliability and infrastructure work—solving data inconsistency with validation/partial-data paths, fixing K8s liveness issues via lazy loading, and supporting a phased cloud-to-on-prem migration with dual-writes and monitoring. Also built Kafka-based real-time ingestion consumers handling bursty, high-throughput traffic with async processing and topic/retention tuning.”

“Built a production AI-powered customer support Q&A system using an internal knowledge base to reduce repetitive ticket work and improve customer satisfaction, with an emphasis on source-backed answers and expert oversight. Also has experience defining deployment services in a microservices architecture and integrating large-scale APIs (including work connected to US HHS/COVID-19).”

“Backend/data engineer focused on production-grade Python services and AWS platforms: builds FastAPI microservices on EKS with strong reliability patterns, CI/CD, and observability. Also delivers AWS Glue/Redshift analytics pipelines with schema-evolution and data-quality safeguards, and has modernized legacy batch processing into maintainable services with parallel-run parity validation and feature-flagged rollouts.”

“Backend engineer with experience in both healthcare (Siemens) and payments (Bitwise), focused on scaling Python APIs and modernizing architectures. Has led monolith-to-microservices migrations and introduced Kafka async processing, Redis caching, and ELK observability, citing ~40% faster issue resolution and improved reliability via idempotency and strong security controls (OAuth2/JWT, RBAC, RLS).”

“Frontend engineer who has owned end-to-end delivery of multi-step commerce workflows, including an e-commerce cabinet customization platform and a food/grocery pickup ordering flow. Emphasizes scalable React architecture (Redux/RTK Query), strong automated quality (TDD, Jest/RTL, ESLint/Prettier/Husky), and performance/cost optimization via API caching and reduced AWS Lambda calls.”

“Full-stack developer with Manulife experience building and scaling a customer-facing digital wealth portfolio tracker and a complex React/TypeScript portfolio dashboard. Strong track record improving mobile UX and reliability with measurable impact (30% lower mobile bounce rate; ~20–22% fewer Stripe payment errors) through CI/CD automation, A/B testing, and monitored incremental rollouts.”

“Frontend-focused engineer who led a full-scale CMS/dashboard build using React (with TypeScript), plus Node.js microservice APIs on AWS Lambda and MySQL.
