Vetted Schema Validation Professionals

“Backend engineer who replaced an Excel-heavy forecasting workflow with a secure, auditable FastAPI system (React UI + relational model + async workers), emphasizing deterministic processing, idempotency, and versioned ledger-style ingestion. Led a monolith-to-FastAPI migration at Bounteous using a strangler approach, feature-flagged incremental rollout, and data reconciliation/shadow-compare to protect integrity while scaling onboarding workflows.”

“Built and deployed an AI Copilot for Healthful Telehealth that helps dietitians generate personalized meal plans using patient data and real-time clinical context. Stands out for owning the full lifecycle—from workflow discovery and ETL/RAG architecture to production incident response and post-launch stabilization—while delivering roughly 30% gains in retrieval accuracy and latency.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on experience shipping production computer vision and GenAI systems, including a fabric defect detection platform that combined vision models with agentic LLM workflows to reach 89% human-inspector agreement at 200 ms latency. Also built a RAG-based code QA tool for developers and emphasizes production monitoring, evaluation, caching, and reusable Python service design.”

“Backend engineer with Walmart experience owning Python data-processing/integration services alongside ASP.NET Core. Has deployed containerized services to Kubernetes via OpenShift with Jenkins CI/CD and GitOps-style config management, and has led phased migrations modernizing VB6/classic ASP apps to ASP.NET Core on OpenShift/Azure. Also implemented Kafka-based real-time pipelines with a focus on reliability, idempotency, and observability.”

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer with production experience in both healthcare (claims enrichment/interoperability at Abacus) and finance (Goldman Sachs pricing/risk APIs + React dashboards). Built an event-driven AI grading platform using Postgres Debezium CDC + Kafka + FastAPI on AWS that cut manual grading ~70% and served 1000+ students, with strong emphasis on reliability, testing, and performance tuning.”

“QA automation engineer who owned and transformed a JavaScript/WebdriverIO UI automation suite into a reliable CI release gate by refactoring to POM, adding API validations, cross-browser coverage, and aggressively reducing flakiness. Demonstrated strong security mindset by uncovering a critical RBAC gap where restricted users could trigger billing actions via direct API calls, and helped reshape product requirements early through detailed acceptance-criteria questions (e.g., CSV upload partial failures).”

“Data engineer focused on high-volume transaction pipelines (2M+ per day) using Snowflake/Snowpipe, Spark/PySpark, Kafka, and Airflow, with a strong emphasis on schema/data-quality enforcement and reliability improvements. Also built a greenfield compliance-focused RAG solution, using CloudWatch monitoring and adding ingestion validation to prevent malformed OCR documents from degrading search quality.”

“Data engineer in healthcare (HCA) who owned end-to-end Azure-based pipelines at very large scale (50M+ daily claims/patient records). Strong focus on reliability: schema-drift fail-fast validation, quarantine layers, and Python/SQL data quality checks that reduced issues ~25%, plus performance tuning in Databricks/PySpark and versioned serving in Synapse for downstream consumers.”

“ML/AI engineer at PNC who has shipped enterprise-grade RAG and document intelligence systems for compliance and policy workflows. Stands out for combining LLM product thinking with production rigor—owning FastAPI/Kubernetes deployments, monitoring, evaluation, and human-feedback loops that drove measurable gains like 40% faster policy search and 30% faster compliance review.”

“JavaScript/React/TypeScript engineer with hands-on open-source experience improving a hooks utility library—fixed a reported async race condition that reduced unexpected re-renders and added a debounced callback hook that became widely used. Brings a production-minded approach to performance and abstractions (APM/metrics-driven, DB/caching focus) with strong testing, documentation, and community support practices.”

“Built and owned an enterprise LLM/RAG document intelligence platform for PNC Financial Services in a compliance-heavy environment, focused on grounded answers over internal finance and policy documents. Stands out for combining GenAI product delivery with production engineering discipline, delivering 60% faster document review and materially better answer quality while creating reusable FastAPI-based AI services for multiple teams.”

Senior engineering founder specializing in AI systems and automotive controls

Dearborn, MI13y exp

“Builder-minded founder/operator currently at Ford who previously co-founded MeruDynamics, an "Uber for manufacturing" platform, and took it from zero to paying customer without raising capital. He also independently built and deployed RDD, an AI copilot for engineering decision capture, with evals, prompt versioning, and LLM cost telemetry—showing unusual depth in both product thinking and practical AI execution.”

“LLM/agentic systems practitioner who specializes in moving demo-only assistants into reliable, observable, cost-controlled production services. Strong in real-time diagnosis of complex agent workflows (including tracing, loop detection, and guardrails) and in customer-facing enablement—running workshops, building tailored PoCs, and partnering with sales to close deals by proving reliability in high-risk pilots.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native data platforms

College Park, MD3y exp

“Software engineer with hands-on experience using AI coding assistants and LangChain-based agent workflows in RAG/LLM projects. Stands out for combining practical multi-agent experimentation with strong grounding in system design, distributed systems, and production-minded validation of AI-generated outputs.”

“Frontend-focused engineer who built a reusable React component library (documented in Storybook) to standardize and speed up UI development across teams at Ikea, including a configurable, high-performance order list component. Also demonstrated end-to-end ownership in an unstructured environment at First Citizens Bank by defining API contracts and delivering backend services with caching and monitoring.”

“QA engineer with 4+ years testing UX/UI for enterprise, data-driven and legacy platforms (including Dell Technologies), partnering closely with developers/product/business through Agile sprints. Experienced validating end-to-end behavior across UI, REST APIs (Postman), and databases (SQL), and automating regression with Selenium Java/TestNG. Notable work includes diagnosing search ranking/pagination issues by correlating UI behavior with API responses and metadata consistency.”

“GenAI/ML engineer who has shipped production agentic systems in highly regulated and high-throughput environments, including an AWS Bedrock-based fraud/compliance workflow at U.S. Bank with PII redaction and hallucination detection that cut investigation time by 50%+.
