Vetted System Design Professionals

“Appian consultant/engineer focused on insurance and financial services modernization and AI-enabled workflows. Built and productionized an AI-driven insurance submission intake system (email ingestion, classification/extraction, HITL review) cutting processing time from 2+ hours to under 10 minutes, and delivered semantic smart search with guardrails and UAT-driven ranking improvements. Also partnered with a global bank CTO org, running sessions with 200+ senior leaders to automate regulatory/board metric reporting via platform integrations and attestation.”

Director-level Engineering & Program Leader specializing in AI product platforms

San Diego, CA25y exp

“Technical Program Manager and one of three internal "founders" of HP’s Hardware-as-a-Service home printer subscription initiative, spanning DTC shipping, simplified setup, ink replenishment, and warranty coverage. Led roadmap definition/execution, scaled delivery rapidly to 15+ scrum teams (including vendors) with SAFe-like coordination and shared engineering standards, and drove key architecture trade-offs (building an interim subscription management service) to accelerate time-to-market by about a year.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native distributed systems and streaming data

Austin, TX7y exp

“Backend/product engineer with Tesla experience building and operating a real-time OTA update monitoring and fleet analytics platform at massive scale (telemetry from 3M+ vehicles). Delivered end-to-end systems across Kafka-based ingestion, TimescaleDB/Postgres analytics modeling, FastAPI/GraphQL APIs, and React/TypeScript dashboards, and handled production scaling incidents on AWS EKS during major rollout spikes.”

Junior Product Designer specializing in AI-powered SaaS products

New York, NY3y exp

“Product-minded designer/builder who operates at the intersection of UX, support, and engineering. At Miter, they helped launch three products and built the customer-facing readiness layer that contributed to a 15% adoption increase; at Yacht Labs, they designed and implemented high-polish React/Next.js experiences and proposed a spec-driven app generation system to make AI output more controllable and trustworthy.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in backend, cloud-native, and GenAI systems

Redmond, WA5y exp

“Software engineer with strong Java/Spring Boot backend depth and hands-on full-stack experience building AI-powered enterprise knowledge assistants and customer-facing order tracking systems. Stands out for combining RAG/LLM product work, event-driven microservices, and user-trust-focused product iteration, including shipping prototypes that became the basis for broader production workflows.”

“Full-stack engineer who built and owned a production real-estate search platform (advanced search + saved-search alerts) using Next.js App Router/TypeScript with a NestJS + Postgres + Elasticsearch/Kafka backend. Demonstrated strong performance engineering (map search FPS ~20→60, ~80% latency reduction) and backend scalability (optimized alert-matching queries and orchestrated notification workflows with Airflow/Redis), with measurable post-launch engagement gains (+27% returning users).”

“Full-stack engineer with 5+ years of experience who built real-time data visualization and analytics systems at Uber, spanning React/TypeScript frontends, Node/GraphQL services, Kafka pipelines, and PostgreSQL. Particularly compelling for teams needing a hands-on builder who can turn ambiguous customer needs into scalable products, and who has also applied RAG with LangChain/OpenAI over 1.8M support files to surface actionable insights.”

“GE leader with 10 years of experience spanning software development, internal audit/consulting, and Chief of Staff leadership in GE Digital. Stood out by operating as the cross-functional execution engine for a $100M software business, driving measurable outcomes including $2.5M in AWS savings, 20% defect reduction, and $4M in audit adjustments. Combines executive-level strategy, analytical rigor, and hands-on change management across engineering, finance, legal, and security.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native backend and distributed systems

New York, NY4y exp

“Backend engineer focused on Python/FastAPI microservices running on Kubernetes (AWS EKS) with strong GitOps/CI/CD ownership (GitHub Actions + ArgoCD). Demonstrated measurable performance wins (p95 latency cut from >1s to <200ms) and production reliability work across Kafka/Redis streaming and cloud-to-on-prem migrations (RDS/S3 to Postgres/MinIO) using parallel validation and checksum-based consistency checks.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in AI and healthcare platforms

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“Backend/ML engineer who has moved from enterprise energy systems at Chevron into healthcare AI, including co-founding a medical billing AI startup and building real-time clinical assistant infrastructure at Humana. Particularly strong in production LLM systems, streaming backend architecture, and regulated healthcare workflows where latency, reliability, auditability, and user trust all matter.”

“Software engineer who owned customer-facing, high-traffic TypeScript/React + TypeScript backend systems end-to-end, emphasizing safe velocity through feature flags, staged rollouts, observability, and rollback-ready incremental delivery. Reports shipping more frequently with fewer production incidents and faster recovery due to these guardrails.”

“Engineering leader who has led 100+ engineers at Sainsbury’s Tech and previously scaled an org from 6 to 60+ at AND Digital. Drove a high-impact modernization of a pricing/decisioning platform serving 1,700 stores—moving from batch monolith to real-time Kafka-based event-driven microservices with MLOps, IaC (Terraform), and zero-trust—delivering £18m+ annual profit uplift and 10+ deploys/day.”

“Backend/ML-systems engineer with experience (including Amazon) building real-time face recognition services using PyTorch (MTCNN/FaceNet) and AWS (SQS/S3/Lambda/EC2) with a focus on low latency, burst handling, and cost control. Also led a revenue-critical legacy pricing workflow migration to a serverless event-driven architecture using strangler-pattern rollout, simulation-based validation, and strong security practices (JWT/RBAC/RLS).”
