Vetted SciPy Professionals

“AI/back-end engineer at Canon who helped build and operate an internal production LLM platform that acts as a secure middle layer between users and models, defending against jailbreaks/prompt injection while enabling RAG, memory, and grounded responses over company data. Experienced with LangChain/LangGraph orchestration, vector DB retrieval, and reliability practices (testing, monitoring, adversarial prompts) to run high-throughput, low-latency AI workflows in production.”

“Built a LangGraph-based, tool-routing LLM chatbot to deliver fast, trustworthy investment-stock insights (including tariff impact) and deployed it to production on Snowflake after initially developing in Azure with AI Search and the Microsoft Agent Framework. Improved routing robustness by moving from LLM-based decisions to a deterministic router backed by schema-relationship graphs and YAML metadata, and ran the project iteratively with non-technical stakeholders over an 8-month engagement.”

“LLM/agentic AI builder who deployed a production ITSM automation agent on Google ADK integrating ServiceNow and FreshService, with strong safety guardrails (human-approval gating and runbook-only command execution) and rigorous evaluation (500 synthetic tickets; 80%+ false-positive reduction). Also partnered with finance to deliver an AI agent that automated invoice/SOW retrieval and monthly reporting to account managers, reducing manual back-and-forth.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in backend systems, cloud, and applied LLM/NLP

IN, USA4y exp

“Applied LLMs to classify long nonprofit mission statements into 8 segments without labeled data, using an ensemble of clustering/embedding methods plus zero-shot RoBERTa/BART and a Tree-of-Thought prompting pipeline with LLM-as-judge evaluation (Gemma). Also built LangChain/LlamaIndex agentic RAG workflows including a text-to-SQL data analysis assistant grounded on DB schema with retries and performance optimizations on an HPC cluster.”

“Backend/cloud engineer from Resilient Tech with hands-on experience deploying REST APIs and database migrations into a live ERP used by real customers while maintaining 99% uptime. Has debugged intermittent AWS container timeouts down to security group/load balancer misconfigurations, and has extended Python in an ERPNext system to meet GST/e-invoicing compliance requirements with strong customer collaboration.”

“Backend engineer who owned the API layer for an AI trust/analytics dashboard (trust scores, stability checks, public verification endpoints) using Python/FastAPI and Postgres. Has hands-on DevOps experience deploying FastAPI and Node.js services to AWS Kubernetes with GitHub Actions + ArgoCD GitOps, plus Kafka-based real-time event streaming and careful staged migration practices (shadow traffic/dual writes, rollback planning).”

USA3y exp

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer in fintech/payments who shipped an end-to-end Stripe payments + webhook system for a financial microservices platform, emphasizing ledger accuracy via idempotency, transactional writes, retries, and DLQs. Also delivered a real-time React/TypeScript payment status dashboard informed by user interviews, and improved production performance by 35% p95 latency through PostgreSQL tuning and Redis caching on AWS.”

Mid-level Software Development Engineer specializing in Python, APIs, and AWS

NC, US5y exp

“Backend engineer with experience modernizing legacy systems and building modular Python/Flask services, including a REST-to-GraphQL migration for an e-commerce platform that improved API response time by 45%. Strong in performance and scalability work across PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy (indexing, JSONB, N+1 fixes, connection pooling) and high-throughput systems (Celery + Redis), plus integrating ML microservices with TorchServe, Kafka streaming, feature stores, and Prometheus/Grafana monitoring.”

“Backend-focused engineer who built Codesdev V1.0 end-to-end, a cloud-native IDE with secure Docker-based code execution across 8 languages and a custom PostgreSQL JSONB virtual file system achieving 34ms retrieval. Stands out for pragmatic early-stage decision-making, hands-on ownership from architecture through incident resolution, and a strong focus on security and low-latency backend design.”

“Robotics software engineer who built a ROS 2 Humble autonomous hospital-equipment detection/localization robot end-to-end in Gazebo (custom worlds/models, Nav2 waypoint navigation, YOLOv8n perception, TF2-based depth fusion) and solved real-time integration issues via multithreading and QoS tuning. Also implemented and tuned an MPPI controller to enable smooth reverse parking on an OpenPodCarV2 platform, including real-world reverse engineering and hardware/software debugging.”

“Backend engineer (Encore) who led the evaluation and redesign of a high-volume, low-latency real-time retrieval/ranking and inference platform on AWS, shifting from tightly coupled services to a modular architecture for better fault isolation and independent scaling. Strong focus on production reliability, observability, and security (JWT/RBAC, multi-tenant scoping, Postgres/Supabase RLS), with disciplined migration playbooks (feature flags, shadow traffic, dual writes/reconciliation).”

“Master’s thesis engineer who built and deployed a continuous real-time perception + state estimation + control loop under tight latency constraints, owning both software architecture and hardware integration. Strong ROS 2 fundamentals with a systems-first approach—stabilizes robotic behavior by instrumenting, logging/replaying real data, and fixing timing/synchronization issues rather than treating failures as purely algorithmic.”

Lafayette, Louisiana4y exp

“Built and deployed a production-grade LLM agent for credit management and accounts receivable automation, integrating ERP/MySQL data via a RAG pipeline and exposing services through FastAPI with Pydantic-validated outputs on AWS Bedrock. Emphasizes reliability and compliance for financial operations using schema validation and human-in-the-loop review, reporting ~32% reduction in manual work and ~41% improvement in response time/reliability.”
