Vetted Swift Professionals

“Serial venture builder/operator across ad tech, media delivery, search engines, international content management, and ecommerce; has raised up to $150M and been involved in 8 acquisitions or IP-acquisition events. Known for refactoring/re-engineering smaller or troubled platforms into higher-value businesses, including building yield-management algorithms and a Kafka-like system to improve ad delivery profitability.”

“Founder/builder of an EdTech startup (robograde.io) who personally conducted on-site classroom discovery with teachers and rapidly iterated the product based on real-world feedback. Implemented a Canvas LMS integration and refined it through weeks of in-person testing, and handled a live production grading failure by quickly debugging and deploying a fix, then adding fault-tolerant/backup API design.”

“Full-stack/AI-focused builder who shipped a production Career Advisor app using LLMs + RAG + vector DB (React/Node/MongoDB/Claude API) and grew it to 2000+ users, handling real deployment issues and CI/CD on Vercel/Render. Also developing an AI-powered iOS “3D World Explorer” (text-to-3D) and has cloud experience across Azure and AWS (S3/SageMaker/EC2).”

“Engineering leader/CTO-type with deep experience building and scaling a vehicle routing platform at Transdev On Demand, including a nationwide rollout to 22 US airports ahead of schedule. Drove engineering best practices (CI/CD, high test coverage, pair programming, automated deployments) and led a multi-tenant architectural upgrade to expand the routing engine to additional business lines and external customers.”

Junior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in TypeScript, React, and Java microservices

Chicago, IL2y exp

“Software engineer with finance-domain experience who built an internal transaction management system end-to-end at Prospect Equities (TypeScript/React Native + Java Spring Boot microservices on AWS), delivering 40% lower query latency and 73% operational efficiency gains. Has also designed Terraform-provisioned, SQS-based distributed systems and scaled workloads to 10,000+ concurrent users, including monolith-to-SOA modernization that cut internal review time by 47%.”

Intern Software Engineer specializing in cloud, DevOps, and applied AI

Carlsbad, CA1y exp

“Full-stack engineer with startup ownership experience (Aiir) building 15+ TypeScript/Go microservice APIs on GCP Cloud Run with Kafka-based async event streaming and React CRM integrations for billing/analytics. Strong post-launch operator who tuned Oracle performance (partitioning/indexing/query optimization) and validated a 23% retrieval-time reduction via AWR, and has a quality/DevSecOps mindset (94% Pytest coverage, GitHub Actions, SonarQube, Twistlock, CloudWatch) including migrating 18+ production CI/CD pipelines.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in low-latency ad targeting and distributed backend systems

Santa Clara, CA9y exp

“Backend/platform engineer who built a high-scale audience segmentation and real-time targeting system using Spark/Glue + S3/Hudi and low-latency API services backed by Redis/relational stores. Demonstrates strong production rigor: Spark performance tuning to eliminate OOM failures, API idempotency/caching to cut p95 latency ~40%, and careful dual-run/feature-flag migrations with reconciliation and rollback runbooks. Experienced implementing layered security with JWT/OAuth, RBAC/ABAC, and database row-level security to prevent privilege escalation.”

Suloni Praveen

Entry-Level Software Engineer specializing in data engineering and ML systems

Los Angeles, CA0y exp

“Built an end-to-end Next.js/TypeScript LLM-based scientific PDF analyzer using local Ollama/Llama inference to prioritize privacy and cost, producing structured research artifacts (e.g., authors/methods/findings) with ~92% extraction accuracy. At Qualtrics, helped replace a batch pipeline with a real-time, low-latency ML inference service (Python/Go on Kubernetes) using Redis caching, Grafana-based observability, and graceful fallbacks to protect UX during failures.”

“Product-minded full-stack engineer with deep experience building React/TypeScript + serverless/SQL systems and improving both operational reliability and user activation. They stand out for connecting low-level architecture decisions like idempotency and atomic updates with business outcomes such as reduced support burden and lower 30-day cancellations, while also designing configurable multi-tenant product systems with strong guardrails.”

“Senior frontend engineer with experience leading high-impact React/TypeScript products at HelloFresh and CAA, including an A/B-tested onboarding flow shipped across multiple international brands. Modernized a legacy .NET frontend to Next.js using SSR and performance techniques (caching/memoization/lazy loading) and implemented robust testing/monitoring (Cypress, Honeycomb, GA) in fast-paced, production-deploy environments.”

Junior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in scalable, AI-powered web apps

Bettendorf, IA1y exp

“Frontend-leaning engineer with production React experience and hands-on Next.js App Router patterns (Server/Client Components, Route Handlers, caching/revalidate decisions). Has built internal sales dashboards and optimized both React UI performance and SQL Server-backed analytics queries, and previously created an onboarding framework at Adobe that evolved into a configurable, multi-team reusable platform in a lean environment.”

“Entrepreneur building a bootstrapped AI-native manufacturing company that combines agentic AI, LLM-assisted CAD/CAM, and in-house CNC machining to speed up hardware iteration. Comes from an early-stage enterprise SaaS background and evaluates opportunities like an angel investor, with strong fluency in VC dynamics and founder-market-team fit.”
