Vetted Schema Design Professionals

“ML/backend engineer with PayPal experience building high-stakes production systems, including a GenAI internal support assistant and a real-time fraud scoring pipeline. Strong in Python/FastAPI, model-serving infrastructure, RAG architecture, and production observability, with clear readiness to transition those backend patterns into a TypeScript stack.”

“Engineer with a notably mature AI-native development process: uses Claude/Claude Code in a test-first, iterative workflow and has led multi-agent builds across frontend, backend, and testing. Most notably, they led development of an AI voice agent platform, creating custom agent skills and enforcing clear architectural boundaries to deliver a stable, scalable system.”

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer with experience at Liberty Mutual and Airbnb, building high-scale insurance claims systems (1M+ monthly transactions) and consumer booking/pricing services (120K–180K daily requests). Strong in transactional data integrity, PostgreSQL performance tuning, and production operations (Docker/Jenkins/AWS), with measurable UX/performance wins including ~2.3s page loads and significant runtime failure reduction.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (5+ years) with Shopify experience integrating LLM/RAG workflows into production APIs. Owned a Python TensorFlow Serving inference pipeline connected to Java microservices via gRPC, optimizing tail latency at ~10k concurrent load and improving retrieval relevance with embedding and evaluation work. Strong Kubernetes/EKS + GitOps/CI/CD background, including monolith-to-microservices migrations and event-driven streaming patterns.”

“Product-minded software engineer with experience shipping AI-powered financial insights (spend forecasting, cashflow, credit optimization) and building real-time analytics systems using React/TypeScript and FastAPI. Has designed microservices with RabbitMQ/gRPC and strong observability (Prometheus/Grafana/OpenTelemetry), and also built an internal Figma plugin adopted by designers that reduced export time by 50%.”

“Backend engineer with Apple experience who owned production platform improvements end-to-end, including a Redis caching layer that cut API latency ~35–40% and reduced DB load. Has hands-on on-call/incident response and observability (CloudWatch), plus experience scaling Docker/Kubernetes microservices and operating Kafka-based telemetry pipelines with schema evolution, deduplication, and replay/backfill handling.”

“Primary engineer at Customer Insights AI who built an end-to-end Python pipeline for 340B drug pricing compliance, using ML to detect suspicious pharmaceutical claims and benefit diversion. Stands out for combining healthcare compliance domain knowledge with production reliability practices, and for turning ambiguous analyst-driven review processes into automated workflows that cut manual review by 70%.”

“Data engineer with experience at Moderna and Block owning high-volume (≈10TB/day) production pipelines on AWS, using Kafka/S3/Glue/dbt/Snowflake with strong data quality and observability practices (schema validation, anomaly detection, CloudWatch monitoring). Also built external financial API ingestion with Airflow retries, throttling/token rotation, and schema versioning, and helped stand up an early-stage biomedical data platform with CI/CD and incident debugging.”
