San Francisco, California7y exp

“Frontend engineer focused on React/TypeScript dashboards for manufacturing-cycle analytics (downtime/wait time/cycle time). Has hands-on experience building reusable charting components (JSON-to-graph) with React ECharts, scaling data flows with Redux/RTK Query, and refactoring monolithic UI code into modular components while shipping on a ~3-week release cadence.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong ownership across React, FastAPI, and PostgreSQL who has built real-time collaboration and analytics workflows end-to-end. Particularly compelling for high-growth AI product teams: they’ve also shipped a 0→1 AI-assisted dataset retrieval and summarization capability, balancing MVP speed with scalable architecture and post-launch performance tuning.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack product engineer with experience in insurance and financial analytics, combining UI design, React/TypeScript implementation, and backend integration. Stands out for shipping data-heavy dashboards, real-time collaborative features, and early generative AI document-analysis workflows using Spring Boot, LangChain, and AWS Bedrock.”

“Healthcare product leader focused on regulated analytics platforms for hospitals, health systems, and payers. They combine deep CMS/HIPAA domain expertise with hands-on product strategy, cloud/data architecture collaboration, and AI prototyping—highlighted by improving CMS-aligned readmission prediction accuracy to within 3% and leading a CloudQI-based quality logic transformation.”

“Senior product leader who helped transform Submittable from a single-program grant tool into a multi-program impact platform, driving ARR from $20M to $70M+ while improving retention and margins. Particularly strong in enterprise platform strategy and human-centered AI, with a clear philosophy of using AI to augment expert judgment rather than replace it.”

“Founding Product Manager and first hire at a seed-stage startup who joined before a product existed and built the product function and engineering operating cadence from scratch. Owns end-to-end product development while also covering GTM, strategy, funding-related work, customer deployments, and direct engineering management—showing unusually broad startup operating range.”

“Product manager with 5-6 years of experience spanning AI product development and regulated healthcare transformation. Most notably helped shape a voice-first AI recruitment platform with conversational avatars and multimodal agents, while also leading healthcare cloud migration and claims-pricing workflows under HIPAA and compliance constraints. Strong fit for roles needing someone who can turn messy, multi-stakeholder requirements into a scoped, deployable product.”

“QA engineer with 12 years of experience in SaaS/platform releases (not AAA games), partnering closely with developers and product through standups, 1:1s, and Three Amigos. Owned high-risk areas like payment data integrity and critical user journeys, running CI-based full regression to support go/no-go decisions. Notably caught a production EV charging receipt defect (zero charge shown) and drove it to resolution with strong Jira documentation and cross-functional escalation.”
