Vetted Scala Professionals

“Full-stack engineer focused on data-heavy platforms, building Spring Boot microservices and Angular/React dashboards end-to-end. Has hands-on experience improving large-scale API and UI performance (including cutting 8–10s response times) and ensuring cross-service consistency using Kafka, idempotent consumers, and strong validation/transaction patterns on AWS with CI/CD and observability (Prometheus/ELK).”

“ML/NLP engineer with banking domain experience who built a GenAI-powered fraud detection and risk intelligence system at Origin Bank, combining RAG (LangChain + FAISS), fine-tuned BERT NER, and GPT-4/Sentence-BERT embeddings. Delivered measurable impact (25% higher fraud detection accuracy, 40% less manual review) and emphasizes production-grade pipelines on AWS SageMaker/Airflow with strong data validation and scalable PySpark processing.”

“Backend engineer who built an Emergency Alert System with Virginia Tech for the City of Alexandria, focusing on real-time ingestion, secure dashboards, and AI-assisted prioritization. Emphasizes high-stakes reliability with guardrails (hybrid rules+LLM, confidence-based fallbacks), scalable async processing, and defense-in-depth security (JWT/RBAC plus database row-level security).”

“AI research engineer who has built and tested LLM agents end-to-end, including a Telegram real-time voice-to-typing assistant integrated with calendar scheduling. Emphasizes production concerns (security via mic-triggered activation, multi-model fallbacks, monitoring) and agent predictability using a GPT-3.5-based critic plus structured outputs (Pydantic) and ReAct-style orchestration.”

“At Liberty Mutual, built a production underwriting decision assistant combining LLM reasoning with quantitative models and strong auditability. Implemented a claims-based response verification pipeline that cut hallucinations from 18% to 3% and materially improved user trust/validation scores. Experienced orchestrating ML/LLM workflows end-to-end with Airflow, Kubeflow Pipelines, and Jenkins, including SLA-focused pipeline hardening.”

“Backend/AI engineer with internship experience building an AI-powered financial insights platform (FastAPI, Redis, BigQuery) and prior HCL experience leading a monolith-to-microservices refactor (Flask, Kafka) using blue-green deployments. Demonstrates strong performance/security focus (OAuth/JWT/RBAC, encryption) and measurable impact on latency, downtime, and ML model reliability; MVP was submitted to Google’s accelerator program.”

“Python backend engineer (BetterWorld Technology) who owns microservice systems end-to-end on Azure, including Kubernetes deployments, CI/CD, and production monitoring/alerting. Has hands-on experience integrating SQL/NoSQL (including Cosmos DB with vector search/graph workflow) and has built a Kafka + Spark Streaming pipeline to Snowflake with a reported 40% latency reduction.”

“Backend/data engineer focused on AWS-based, low-latency event processing for market data and social-signal sentiment systems. Has led a monolith-to-event-driven migration with feature-flagged incremental rollout, and emphasizes production-grade security (OAuth2/JWT, secrets management, Supabase RLS) and data integrity (deduplication/idempotency) under high-volume spike conditions.”

“Healthcare-focused ML/LLM engineer who built a production hybrid RAG workflow to automate prior authorization by retrieving from medical guidelines/historical cases (FAISS) and generating grounded rationales for clinicians. Strong in operationalizing ML with Airflow/Kubeflow/MLflow on SageMaker, optimizing latency (ONNX/quantization/async), and reducing hallucinations via evidence-only prompting; also partnered closely with clinical ops to deploy a readmission prediction tool used in daily rounds.”

“Built and owned a Python/FastAPI backend for a custom translation service used in a showroom application, integrating DynamoDB and connecting the service to a SPA/Next.js frontend. Has exposure to Kubernetes-based deployments and GitHub Actions CI/CD, and contributed to planning an on-prem to cloud/SaaS migration at Sherwin-Williams by gathering requirements across multiple plants/factories.”

“Full-stack engineer who built a checklist configuration/task execution system using Next.js App Router + TypeScript, with a React Native app consuming the execution UI via WebView. Was the only full-stack developer at a very small startup (CTO/CFO/CEO team), owning feature delivery plus client-facing on-call debugging, and has hands-on Postgres modeling and query optimization experience.”

New Jersey5y exp

“Backend/data engineer who built a production analytics data service (Python/FastAPI on AWS/Postgres with PySpark ETL) handling millions of records per day and drove major latency improvements (10–15s to <2s) via indexing, Redis caching, and shifting aggregations into ETL. Also shipped an LLM-based natural-language-to-SQL assistant end-to-end with strong guardrails (schema restrictions, read-only validation, RBAC, masking) and designed a multi-step agent workflow with verification and fallback logic.”
