Vetted REST Professionals

“Frontend-focused engineer with full-stack capability (Node/Express + MongoDB/MySQL) who emphasizes scalable quality practices: PR-driven reviews, CI quality gates, and a full testing pyramid (Jest/Vitest, React Testing Library, Cypress/Playwright). Built complex React + TypeScript role-based dashboards/workflows using reusable component architecture and layered state management (React Query/SWR, Context for auth/roles), with strong performance and UX polish (Lighthouse, lazy loading, accessibility, responsive design).”

“Backend engineer who built a production retrieval-augmented narrative analysis platform for 100-page screenplays using a Node/Express orchestrator and a Python/FastAPI AI engine, including a key redesign from disk-based uploads to in-memory streaming to eliminate Windows file-lock failures. Also led a refactor of a municipal vehicle tracking system into a C-based distributed engine handling 4M+ daily packets with 99.99% data integrity and automation that reduced manual ops by 50%.”

“Built AIO, a 7-agent system that automatically fixes failed GitLab CI/CD pipelines in under 60 seconds using Redis queues, typed TypeScript contracts, and strong observability. Heavy AI user who still applies rigorous human review for logic, security, scalability, and code quality, and has made deliberate architectural choices rather than relying blindly on frameworks.”

“Robotics software engineer focused on production ROS 2 (Humble) systems for warehouse AMRs, with strong architecture and integration chops. Built a ROS 2 Lifecycle-based hardware abstraction layer to decouple autonomy from sensors (including mid-production LiDAR vendor swap), enabling mixed fleets and cutting bring-up/integration time dramatically. Also develops Nav2 plugins, MPPI tuning workflows, and scalable simulation/CI tooling (Gazebo, Docker, GitHub Actions) for high-throughput testing.”

“Unity game developer who implemented a blockchain/NFT feature in a mid-core football game, including wallet connection via an external web portal and backend coordination for trading player skins/outfits. Has cloud-focused networking experience (AWS/Firebase) primarily for turn-based multiplayer systems and uses Copilot/VS Code to accelerate boilerplate and architecture exploration.”

Tempe, AZ1y exp

“Backend engineer with hands-on experience building distributed data and API platforms (Kafka + Neo4j on Kubernetes), including processing 3M+ NYC taxi trip records and achieving sub-second graph analytics queries. Strong focus on reliability and performance in Python/FastAPI systems—async refactors, caching, timeouts/retries, feature-flagged rollouts, and JWT/RBAC security for production services.”

“Frontend engineer who created an in-house React-like framework (“React-Wilcox”) enabling modern, event-driven UI components on extremely legacy browsers (as far back as 2002), including race-condition avoidance via batched state updates. Also does freelance work untangling AI/vibe-coded frontends for nontechnical founders, componentizing UIs and fixing routing/readability, and recently built a React+TS social app for martial artists with privacy-preserving location distance features.”

Remote, USA4y exp

“Currently at ProShare and reports building an AI/LLM-powered system deployed to production, aimed at helping with status-related difficulties and reducing misunderstandings across transactions. Also cites prior collaboration at Porsche with marketing teams, focusing on translating marketing goals into technical requirements and communicating solutions clearly to non-technical stakeholders.”

Senior Full-Stack Developer specializing in Node.js/TypeScript, cloud, and data engineering

Chicago, United States10y exp

“Frontend/fullstack lead who inherited a messy psychological app with production issues, drove a rapid stabilization (2–3 weeks) and major performance/architecture overhaul (Redux Toolkit, memoization, caching, lazy loading, CDN offload to S3/CloudFront). Also owns delivery and infrastructure practices (multi-env, Docker, GitHub Actions CI/CD, AWS ECS + load balancing) and led a 1-week POC for an AI-powered trucking management system (app.neblo.ai).”

“Backend/AI engineer who built an enterprise RAG chatbot over 40,000+ technical documents, owning the system from ingestion and retrieval design through launch, optimization, and incident prevention. Stands out for treating LLM reliability as a data, retrieval, and observability problem—delivering 90%+ benchmark accuracy, ~50% fewer hallucinations, and major gains in lookup speed and latency.”

“Frontend engineer who led an internal React + TypeScript admin dashboard end-to-end, including a collaboratively owned component system and complex RBAC/permissions workflows. Emphasizes scalable architecture and correctness using React Query (mutations + query invalidation), centralized permission logic, and TypeScript for safe evolution, plus performance tuning for data-heavy tables and pragmatic MVP-driven delivery with gradual rollouts.”

“Startup engineer who owned an end-to-end carpool marketplace experience at FavorIt (React Native, Firebase/Firestore, Cloud Functions, Stripe) and iterated rapidly using Mixpanel + feature flags while applying rigorous integrity controls for booking and payments. Also built a TypeScript/React + Go/Postgres workout tracker and previously worked on Spring Boot microservices for financial-institution workflow automation with event-driven patterns (outbox, idempotency, backpressure tuning).”
