Vetted REST Professionals

“Stripe engineer who shipped an end-to-end merchant fraud insights dashboard, spanning Spring Boot/Kafka risk-scoring services and a React+TypeScript UI. Focused on low-latency, high-volume transaction processing and production operations on AWS (EKS/CloudWatch), including handling a real traffic-spike latency incident via query optimization, indexing, and rate limiting.”

“Built and deployed production LLM systems in healthcare and at LinkedIn: automated pen-and-paper clinical trial evaluations with a 40x efficiency gain and created an evidence-based Evaluation Agent focused on accuracy and speed. Also used Temporal to orchestrate resilient data-ingestion workflows for customer support staffing prediction, improving prediction outcomes by 40% while handling missing data, retries, and backfills.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production AWS experience spanning serverless APIs (Chalice/Lambda/API Gateway/Cognito) and data pipelines (Glue PySpark + Step Functions). Has modernized a legacy SAS reporting system into AWS microservices and implemented schema-drift detection and incident prevention for ETL workflows, plus measurable SQL tuning wins (30 min to <10 min runtime).”

“Backend engineer with experience at Meta and Accenture building regulated-data systems (healthcare/financial) using Python/Flask and Postgres. Has scaled high-throughput services to millions of daily requests, delivering measurable latency wins (~40% API latency reduction; ~35% faster DB-backed endpoints), and has productionized ML inference services using Docker/Kubernetes and AWS (ECS/SageMaker).”

“ML-focused candidate with beginner ROS/ROS2 experience (custom pub-sub nodes; TurtleBot3 SLAM simulation debugging via topic inspection and transform/orientation checks). Has research/project exposure to LLM training approaches (GRPO with pseudo-labels using Hugging Face TRL on Qwen/Llama) and uses Docker/Kubernetes + CI/CD to run ViT saliency-attention/compression workloads on UCSD Nautilus infrastructure.”

“LLM infrastructure engineer who built a production-critical real-time personalization and memory retrieval system for a user-facing product, adding <100ms P99 latency while improving relevance ~20–25% and holding SLA through 3x traffic. Experienced designing tiered retrieval backends (Redis + vector store), deploying on Kubernetes with autoscaling/circuit breakers, and running rigorous observability, incident response, and agent evaluation (shadow traffic, A/B tests, regression/replay).”

“Engineering leader at Bayer Crop Science leading a Core Platform team responsible for widely used open-source TypeScript/React and mobile SDKs (npm/GitHub) embedded across 10M+ monthly active devices. Known for shipping high-performance, backward-compatible developer frameworks with rigorous release discipline (bi-weekly releases, 99.99% uptime, long streaks of zero breaking changes) and major DX wins (onboarding cut to minutes, support tickets down 82%).”

“Technology leader with experience owning enterprise roadmaps and executing large-scale platform standardization during rapid M&A—most notably driving a tech roadmap across a 37-company portfolio at Regent, tackling technical debt and security gaps via unified cloud-native architecture, IAM/logging, CI/CD, and a global SRE model. Previously scaled an Adobe engineering org from 8 to 40+ across four regions, implementing clear org design, KPIs, and an extreme-ownership culture to support 24/7 operations and enterprise needs.”
