Vetted Redux Professionals

“Backend/data engineer focused on production ML/LLM systems: built a real-time FastAPI inference API on Kubernetes with strong reliability patterns (timeouts, idempotent retries, centralized error handling). Delivered AWS platforms using EKS + Lambda with GitHub Actions/Helm CI/CD and built Glue-based ETL from S3/Kafka into Snowflake with schema evolution and data-quality controls; also modernized legacy analytics/recommendation workflows into Python services with safe, feature-flagged cutovers.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in event-driven FinTech backend systems

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“Senior/Staff-level backend/platform engineer who owned Stripe’s global payout settlement system end-to-end, building an event-driven Python/Kafka platform processing millions of events daily across 30+ countries. Deep experience operating high-reliability distributed systems in production (incidents, replays/backfills, schema evolution, observability) and scaling on AWS/EKS with strong testing and deployment practices.”

“Robotics software engineer with hands-on ROS2 experience building an audio conversion node and integrating Whisper LiveKit for streaming speech-to-text in a simulated hostile (outer space) robot environment. Also worked on a 2023 LiDAR + ML vision obstacle-detection project for a hospital-nurse-assistant robot, and has strong large-scale CI/CD deployment experience from AWS (2022–2024) across alpha/pre-prod/prod stages.”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in ads transparency platforms

San Jose, USA6y exp

“TikTok engineer (4 years) who built and owned multiple ad transparency platforms used by internal teams and advertisers worldwide. Strong full-stack profile spanning Next.js/TypeScript + Redux frontends, a secure/optimized BFF layer, and event-driven backend workflows (Kafka, retries/DLQ, Redis idempotency) with heavy emphasis on observability and performance; cites a 20% moderation efficiency gain on a modernized legacy tool.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in AI platforms and scalable web systems

Live Oak, FL11y exp

“Built and shipped production agentic/LLM systems that could safely perform real customer and subscription operations, not just answer questions. Demonstrates unusually strong depth in agent orchestration, tool safety, evals, tracing, and backend workflow design across Node.js/TypeScript, Go, Redis, Postgres, Kafka, and GPT-4.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in cloud-native microservices and React

Los Angeles, CA14y exp

“Backend/data engineer with strong AWS production experience spanning high-traffic FastAPI APIs (Postgres/Redis/Kafka) and serverless+container deployments (Lambda/ECS) managed via Terraform and CI/CD. Has built Glue-based data lake ETL (S3 Parquet, Athena/Redshift) with schema drift/data quality controls, modernized legacy batch systems via parallel-run parity validation, and demonstrated measurable SQL performance wins (60–90s down to 3–5s).”

“Unity/C# gameplay engineer who has shipped a modular, data-driven combat ability system with strong measurable outcomes (≈80% fewer GC allocations, 15–20% better frame times, 10–12% higher early retention). Also integrated an LLM-driven NPC dialogue/quest hint system with a C#/.NET backend, caching/guardrails, and telemetry-driven iteration, and shipped Photon PUN real-time 4-player co-op plus a shared codebase across Meta Quest VR and iOS/Android.”
