Principal Software Engineer specializing in scalable, secure multi-platform systems

La Crescenta, CA14y exp

“Engineering leader and former CTO/Disney|ABC engineering manager who built white-label mobile app architecture that supported a branded app and successful exit, and later scaled Disney Channel brand app teams across iOS/Android/web and major OTT platforms. Led kid-safety architecture for DisneyNOW (“Junior mode” with PIN) and partnered with product/legal on COPPA compliance, emphasizing maintainable tech choices and strong execution processes.”

“Senior full-stack engineer with 5 years of experience across Bank of America, AT&T, and NextAI/XAI, building cloud-native, high-availability products spanning React, Node, Java, Kotlin, Python, and AWS. Particularly compelling for teams needing someone who can own architecture, implementation, DevOps, and UX polish end-to-end—from a real-time loan eligibility platform handling 50,000+ daily requests to live event dashboards that improved operations and helped drive $250K in ARR.”

“Healthcare product leader with deep oncology and pharma experience who has built both foundational clinical data platforms and AI-powered patient engagement workflows. Particularly notable for combining rigorous data standardization, LLM evaluation/guardrail design, and human-centered communication changes that drove measurable medication refill and adherence improvements. Also teaches AI to product managers and business analysts, bringing a pragmatic, education-first view of human-centered AI adoption.”

“Senior infrastructure/platform engineer with deep IBM Power/AIX (Power9, VIOS, HMC, LPAR/DLPAR) and PowerHA production ownership at scale (40 frames / ~300 LPARs), including hands-on outage recovery and performance tuning. Also delivers modern DevOps/IaC capabilities—CI/CD for Kubernetes microservices and Terraform-based multi-account AWS (EKS/VPC/IAM/RDS) with drift detection and safe rollout controls.”

“Former McKinsey consultant with MBA consulting experience who led financial/budgeting work and helped shape a nonprofit fundraising GTM strategy. Built targeted corporate outreach, tailored messaging by stakeholder, and used HubSpot-driven pipeline tracking to help secure roughly $50K in partner funding.”

“Senior Engineering Manager with large-scale platform/API ownership at eBay, leading a globally distributed team and redesigning Order public APIs used by external developer ecosystems at ~800M requests/day, delivering 84% performance gains and reducing compute by ~300 VMs. Also led Google CRES ETL migration work on GCP, creating reusable Python libraries to standardize configuration across 10 integrations and improve developer productivity.”

“Venture investing/sourcing professional with experience at L'Attitude running high-volume founder sourcing across tools (Harmonic) and ecosystem channels (accelerators, hackathons, Discord, university labs). Demonstrated ability to turn cold outreach and early relationships into diligence and investment committee discussions, while maintaining a rigorous CRM-driven pipeline process and long-term founder nurturing through consistent value-add.”

Senior Backend Engineer specializing in GenAI, LLMs, and scalable data pipelines

Chicago, IL12y exp

“Backend/ML platform engineer from Snapsheet who owned production Python services and data pipelines for insurance claims, including an AI document classification/summarization FastAPI service on ECS/Fargate processing 1M+ documents/year. Strong in AWS infrastructure (Terraform, CI/CD, secrets/IAM, autoscaling), Glue/PySpark ETL with schema evolution controls, and legacy SAS-to-microservices modernization with safe, feature-flagged rollouts and measurable performance wins.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in consumer robotics and machine learning

Sunnyvale, CA4y exp

“Developer with a structured AI-assisted coding workflow centered on algorithmic rigor, type-safe scaffolding, and spec-driven modular design. Used Claude Code to help build an Android SDK for IPC, quickly ramping up on AIDL and compressing delivery including unit tests from several weeks to two weeks.”

“Backend-focused engineer with Walmart Global Tech experience building shipment and seller workflow systems using Spring Boot, GraphQL, Kafka, and async processing. Stands out for improving bulk label API performance by 60-75%, designing item-level partial-failure workflows that improved user clarity, and also exploring AI-powered debugging/RCA platforms with Java, Python, LangChain, and LLM integrations.”

Executive engineering leader specializing in AI-native transformation and cloud modernization

San Francisco, CA20y exp

“Senior software engineering leader who owned the architecture and delivery of a major VerizonWireless.com transformation, migrating an ATG monolith to Spring Boot/Java microservices with an event-driven architecture across 13 domains. Combines hands-on system design depth with business-facing architecture leadership and team scaling in complex enterprise environments.”

“Senior, product-focused engineer who has built real-time customer-facing web applications and a microservices backend (TypeScript/React/Node) using RabbitMQ, MongoDB, and Redis. Demonstrates strong operational maturity (idempotency, tracing/observability, backpressure) and built an internal console that became the primary tool for debugging, replaying jobs, and managing system behavior.”

“LLMOps-focused technical leader who took an LLM use case from prototype to production for a non-technical customer by combining trust-building and structured enablement with a robust AWS/Kubernetes-based MLOps stack. Built observability and rollback mechanisms (Grafana + MLflow) to troubleshoot in real time, and scaled delivery by hiring a 5-person team while partnering with sales to manage expectations and drive adoption across departments.”

“Player-coach engineering leader focused on scalable data security scanning and risk detection in hybrid cloud, owning architecture and core implementation of an incremental/parallel DSPM scanning engine. Shipped production improvements including 60% lower scan latency and 30% fewer false positives, with strong emphasis on correctness under concurrency, multi-tenant observability (SLOs/burn-rate alerts), and disciplined rollout practices (feature flags, shadow scans, canaries).”
