Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in cloud platforms and AI-integrated full-stack development

Seattle, WA3y exp

“Backend engineer who built Flask-based internal APIs supporting GenAI-driven provisioning/diagnostics (Outpost/AWS Outposts-like environment), with deep hands-on optimization across Postgres/SQLAlchemy (2s to <200ms endpoint improvement). Experienced integrating ML/LLM workflows via AWS SageMaker and Bedrock, and designing multi-tenant isolation plus high-throughput Redis-backed background task pipelines (minutes to seconds).”

“AI/ML engineer who has deployed production LLM/transformer-based systems for merchant intelligence and fraud/support optimization, delivering +27% merchant engagement and +18% payment success. Deep experience in privacy-preserving, PCI DSS-compliant data/ML pipelines (Airflow, AWS Glue, Spark, Delta Lake) and scalable microservices on Kubernetes, plus proven cross-functional delivery in healthcare claims analytics at UnitedHealth Group (12% HEDIS claim reduction).”

“Backend engineer who built a low-latency real-time transaction API in Python/Flask, with strong depth in PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy performance tuning (time-based partitioning, indexing, connection pooling). Has production experience integrating ML scoring and OpenAI-style APIs with safety/latency controls, and designing multi-tenant isolation strategies including per-tenant pooling/caching and premium-tenant isolation.”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in full-stack development and applied ML

New York, NY2y exp

“Full-stack engineer with experience at Zoho and Amazon who has owned production systems end-to-end, including a monolith-to-microservices migration using Kafka and Cassandra that improved search latency ~25% and increased throughput without data loss. Also built a hackathon project (Buildwise) into a sold product for a construction company (AI-driven document compliance checks) and shipped an IoT-based parking availability MVP in 3 weeks.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in distributed backend systems and cloud-native microservices

Seattle, WA5y exp

“Software engineer focused on data platforms and applied LLM systems: built an internal data quality monitoring layer to catch silent data drift and iterated post-launch after finding ~30% false-positive alerts, reducing noise via dynamic baselines and improved structured logging. Also shipped a production RAG-based internal knowledge assistant over Jira/Confluence with citations, confidence-based fallbacks, and nightly automated evals to prevent regressions.”

Junior Backend & Data Engineer specializing in cloud infrastructure and ML pipelines

Atlanta, GA2y exp

“Built a GenAI/RAG-based ESG questionnaire-answering agent at C3.ai, including a React dashboard with role-based access and human-in-the-loop verification by showing supporting source paragraphs. Reported outcomes included cutting a 4–5 week manual process down to about a week (~90% labor reduction) and a client-reported ESG rank improvement from 7th to 3rd.”

“Built and productionized a multi-agent LLM analytics assistant at eBay that routes natural-language questions to retrieval or text-to-SQL, dynamically retrieves relevant schemas via a vector DB, and executes against a data warehouse. Drove a major quality lift (text-to-SQL accuracy 60%→85%) and materially reduced time engineers/PMs spent getting data insights through strong eval/monitoring, tracing, and reliability-focused design (schema retrieval, strict JSON outputs, retries/clarifications).”

“Backend/AI systems engineer who has shipped production LLM agents focused on prompt engineering, code generation, and incident-response automation. Stands out for combining strong agent orchestration and reliability engineering with measurable business impact, including 60-70% cost reductions, 45% lower monthly LLM spend, and a 5x increase in developer iteration speed.”

“Full-stack web developer with hands-on ownership of products from requirements through launch and maintenance, building across React and Node.js. Stands out for balancing product usability with technical performance, including API/database optimizations that improved performance by about 30% and shipping real-time dashboard features with scalable frontend/backend tradeoffs.”

“Engineer with a notably mature AI-native development process: uses Claude/Claude Code in a test-first, iterative workflow and has led multi-agent builds across frontend, backend, and testing. Most notably, they led development of an AI voice agent platform, creating custom agent skills and enforcing clear architectural boundaries to deliver a stable, scalable system.”

“Backend/platform engineer with significant ownership at GoDaddy, where they built a real-time personalization and decisioning system that drove about $7M in annualized revenue and serves roughly 4M requests per day. Also operates as a solo engineer for a global human-rights legal-tech nonprofit, building the full platform and graph-based matching engine for 700+ partner organizations. Brings a strong blend of production backend rigor, platform thinking, and practical AI orchestration.”

“Senior engineering leader in healthcare AI who combines org scaling with deep hands-on architecture work. At DriveHealth.ai, they helped evolve isolated workflows into a production-grade intelligent platform, standardizing a shared RAG+DCE architecture while leading teams of 50+ across engineering, AI, platform, QA, and DevOps.”

“Backend engineer with experience at JPMorgan Chase and Walgreens, owning transaction-processing and prescription data flow systems in regulated environments. Brings strong hands-on depth in Spring Boot microservices, Kafka, Redis, Kubernetes, observability, and production incident resolution, plus practical experience integrating OpenAI-powered workflows with validation and fallback safeguards.”

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer with experience at Liberty Mutual and Airbnb, building high-scale insurance claims systems (1M+ monthly transactions) and consumer booking/pricing services (120K–180K daily requests). Strong in transactional data integrity, PostgreSQL performance tuning, and production operations (Docker/Jenkins/AWS), with measurable UX/performance wins including ~2.3s page loads and significant runtime failure reduction.”

“Backend/platform engineer with deep payments experience who built and operated a real-time transaction routing service end-to-end on AWS (Spring Boot, PostgreSQL/RDS, Redis, Kubernetes), delivering ~40% latency reduction and 99.99% uptime via strong resiliency and observability practices. Also productionized an internal LLM-powered RAG knowledge assistant with guardrails and a user-feedback-driven evaluation loop, and has led incremental monolith-to-microservices modernization using Strangler Fig and shadow traffic.”

Mid-level Machine Learning & Software Engineer specializing in RAG systems and ML infrastructure

Atlanta, GA4y exp

“Built and deployed an in-house RAG LLM system ("MONTY") using LLaMA 3B + FAISS to help teams quickly understand long internal/external specifications. Delivered usable production performance despite severe compute limits (single RTX 3080) by tuning retrieval/reranking and model choice, and is planning a LightRAG/knowledge-graph rewrite to improve accuracy and latency.”
