Vetted SDLC Professionals

“CTO-level leader who drove a major post-buyout transformation at NPact—modernizing engineering (CI/CD, QA, observability), moving products toward SaaS/cloud, and scaling the org from ~20 to ~70 while maintaining 97% retention. Uses instrumentation and workflow analytics (including Atlassian-derived data) to improve delivery, citing an ~80% reduction in feature/bug churn through better scoping and requirements. Comfortable with board-level ROI decisions and customer/fundraising conversations, translating technical tradeoffs into clear business outcomes.”

“Full-stack product engineer who has shipped customer-facing features end-to-end, including a product detail page backed by Java/Spring Boot microservices and a React/TypeScript UI. Demonstrated measurable impact through performance and maintainability improvements (30% faster APIs, 25% less duplicated UI code, 40% reduced API complexity via GraphQL) and has operated/scaled apps on AWS with CI/CD, monitoring, and incident-driven scaling fixes.”

“Backend engineer who owned and shipped a campaign analytics API (FastAPI/Postgres/Redis/Celery) with ingestion from Instagram/YouTube, JWT auth, tests, and Docker deployment; improved performance from >1s to <150ms using precomputed aggregates and composite indexes. Experienced with Kubernetes GitOps using GitHub Actions + ArgoCD (zero-downtime rollouts, one-click rollbacks), Prometheus/Grafana observability, hybrid cloud-to-on-prem migrations, and real-time notification streaming via Redis Pub/Sub + WebSockets.”

“Backend/AI engineer who has built and operated production Node.js/Express services on AWS (Postgres/Redis) and has hands-on experience shipping an AI-powered support agent using RAG (Pinecone + LLM) with grounding checks and evaluation for hallucination rate. Demonstrates strong production reliability/performance debugging, including reducing peak latency from ~2s back to sub-300ms through query and caching optimizations, plus designing agent workflows with retries and human-in-the-loop escalation.”

“Gaming integrations specialist with experience shipping pre-built slot games (e.g., Push Gaming titles) to casinos, operators, and aggregators via API integrations. Handles end-to-end launch workflow including requirements gathering, compliance/jurisdictional constraints, staging-to-production deployments, and coordinating bilateral API testing and production monitoring for new market launches.”
