Vetted Scalability Professionals

“Backend engineer who built and evolved an internal multi-agent AI research platform (Electron + FastAPI) integrating OpenAI, focused on fast, reproducible experimentation with strong observability and run metadata for debugging. Has led incremental backend refactors with feature flags and parallel validation, and brings production-grade access control expertise from ServiceNow (table/field ACLs and row-level-style enforcement).”

“Data/analytics professional with experience across manufacturing and enterprise environments (Wisconsin School of Business project with CNH Industrial; roles/projects at Ascensia Technologies, S&C, and Adobe). Has hands-on work combining warranty/lifecycle tables with technician free-text notes using TF-IDF + tree models (XGBoost/Random Forest), and deep experience in entity resolution/reconciliation across mismatched financial systems using Python/SQL and fuzzy matching, with production-grade pipeline practices in Azure Data Factory/Databricks.”

Director of Software Engineering specializing in fraud detection and payments platforms

San Francisco Bay Area, California, USA26y exp

“Engineering manager/player-coach who focuses on laying technical foundations and improving team execution: kickstarted Visa standard UI library adoption, standardized API exception handling, and introduced a test automation framework that enabled a shift from quarterly to monthly releases. Led a phased latency/throughput initiative that doubled throughput, and owned a production incident caused by a dependency’s expired certificate, driving monitoring and certificate-expiry notification improvements across dependent systems.”

“Current COO who rebuilds and scales operational backbones end-to-end—data architecture, workflows, dashboards, and operating cadence—creating real-time visibility into pipeline, cycle times, and revenue forecasting. Known as a cross-functional integrator (hiring, GTM, finance, investors) who drives tough tradeoffs and turns ambiguity into durable operating systems.”

“Walmart engineer who built and shipped a production LLM+RAG system to automate triage and analysis of computer support chats/tickets, producing grounded, schema-constrained JSON outputs for summaries, urgency, and routing recommendations.
