“AAA game QA professional from Ubisoft (For Honor) with deep live-service multiplayer experience. Known for owning network/competitive integrity risks and building a custom network simulation tool to reliably reproduce desync issues, accelerating debugging and saving 100+ hours. Strong end-to-end QA process skills spanning test planning, triage, regression, and release verification using JIRA/TestRail.”

“AI Software Engineer (student employee) at University of Washington IT who helped deploy "Purple," a governed, explainable LLM platform on Azure used by 100,000+ students/faculty/staff. Independently led scalable reliability efforts by building automated agent quality/load/red-team testing and CI/CD health validation (Playwright/Node.js, Azure DevOps), and previously built an explainable AI scheduling assistant for clinical operations at Proliance Surgeons.”

“QA professional from fintech/SAP security and complex identity systems who has owned end-to-end testing across the SDLC, including being the sole QA on a high-risk payment platform carrier migration. Demonstrated strength in integration testing, data integrity validation, and diagnosing calculation/automation defects using controlled test data and scripted date emulation; experienced with JIRA/TestRail and Selenium-based regression coverage.”

“Software engineer with hands-on experience shipping production AI agents and end-to-end ecommerce workflows. They built a customer support automation agent with strong guardrails and evaluation practices, then improved it post-launch using real user data to cut latency ~30% and token cost ~25%. Also drove a zero-to-one self-serve order modification product across React UI, backend services, and cross-functional alignment.”

“Backend-focused engineer who stepped into a brand-new product and built most of a Go-based backend from scratch in a 3-7 person team, initially as the only backend developer. He designed core security and access-control systems like MFA and role-based authorization, owned complex workflow features such as seat licensing, and helped deliver a B2B SaaS dashboard that earned very positive client feedback.”

“Backend and distributed-systems engineer with experience integrating LLM capabilities into clinical data workflows at CVS. Stands out for treating AI as an engineering accelerator rather than a shortcut, with strong emphasis on validation, observability, Kafka-based async pipelines, and safe multi-agent orchestration for production systems.”
