Engineering Manager specializing in databases and distributed systems

Weston, FL21y exp

“Aspiring founder exploring an AI automation startup focused on automating processes involved in building companies. Not yet developed specific use cases or raised capital, but describes a clear plan to validate ideas through use-case research, building a pilot, and testing with early customers; not familiar with the VC/accelerator landscape yet.”

“Backend/data engineer with Amazon supply-chain experience building production serverless Python services and ETL pipelines on AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, S3, RDS, Glue). Has modernized legacy SAS jobs into Python with rigorous parity testing and phased migrations, and has delivered major SQL performance gains (minutes down to seconds) through indexing and partitioning.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across GCP (FastAPI microservices on Kubernetes) and AWS (Lambda, ECS Fargate, Glue). Has modernized legacy SAS batch systems into Python services with parallel-run parity validation, and has strong operational rigor in ETL reliability/monitoring plus proven SQL tuning impact (25s to <300ms, ~60% CPU reduction).”

“Backend/platform engineer with experience at Microsoft, Uber, and Gusto building production AI-agent automation systems in Python (AutoGen) and cloud-native microservices on Kubernetes across AWS/Azure. Has delivered zero-downtime migrations and high-throughput real-time streaming pipelines (Kafka/WebSockets/Redis), and is strong in GitOps/ArgoCD-driven CI/CD with reliable rollouts and rapid rollback.”

“Robotics software candidate with hands-on experience building controllers for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, including dual-PID control in Python with state-space modeling and a planned path to LQR. Developed ROS nodes for odometry-based localization, waypoint planning, and control command publishing, validated through a custom Gazebo/ROS simulation workflow with control-metric-driven testing. Also worked on F1Tenth simulation and scan-matching localization (PL-ICP), with additional cloud deployment experience using Docker/Kubernetes and CI/CD.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer who built an internal real-time operations dashboard from 0→1 using React, TypeScript, Redux Toolkit, Material UI, and Node.js integrations. Stands out for hands-on performance tuning at scale—profiling and fixing excessive re-renders, optimizing live-update UIs, and iterating post-launch with caching, pagination, and observability.”

“JavaScript/TypeScript engineer from Ridgeline who built a retry feature for failed staging-to-production promotions with pre-promotion health checks. Brings a backend-scaling mindset to runtime performance work (metrics-first bottlenecking, Big-O analysis, async/parallelism, caching) and leverages Cursor/AI tooling to ramp quickly on large codebases.”

Entry AI Software Engineer specializing in LLM workflows and ML pipelines

Redmond, WA2y exp

“Built an autonomous-agent document indexing concept in a hackathon with Microsoft and The Seattle Times, architecting an Azure-based system (Azure AI Foundry, Cosmos DB, Azure indexing, Copilot Studio) and coordinating closely with the customer team. Also created and pitched a sports matchmaking app (Ludicon), combining user studies, feature implementation, and technical support on sales/investor calls.”

Abhishek Masurkar

Senior Frontend Engineer specializing in scalable web apps and UX

Mumbai, India15y exp

“Frontend/UI lead who drove an end-to-end Angular redesign at Ketto.org, creating a scalable design system and internal component library with 90%+ unit test coverage and ongoing performance work (FCP/TTI, SSR/CDN/caching). More recently at Google, built a complex React+TypeScript UX research platform syncing video playback with interactive transcripts (notes/tags/highlights) and shipped features via PRD-driven, phased rollouts with dogfooding and in-app feedback.”

Aditya Sawant

Screened

Mid-level Software Development Engineer specializing in robotics and cloud-based device management

North Reading, Massachusetts3y exp

“Amazon Robotics engineer who deployed and scaled the Lumos camera-based package scanning work cell across EU sort centers (100+ work cells in 5+ sites), enabling remote launches via detailed runbooks and troubleshooting. Strong in AWS IoT/edge systems, with hands-on incident recovery (restored 34 down work cells) and secure multi-compute certificate provisioning using IoT Jobs, ACM/CA, and custom roles; delivered ~75% per-cell cost reduction vs Cognex-based approach.”

Pankaj Goyal

Director-level Engineering Leader specializing in FinTech, IAM, and AI/ML platforms

SF Bay Area, CA22y exp

“Player-coach backend leader at PostLo who led a major backend architecture upgrade to enable AI-driven features by separating transactional systems from AI workloads (vector embeddings/image validation) and adding async processing for heavy jobs. Also owned production reliability improvements (query/index optimization, workload isolation, monitoring and load testing) and translated an ambiguous retention goal into a shipped cashback rewards feature with auditable transactions.”
