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.”

“Built a production LLM-powered root cause analysis agent for supply chain alerts that helped operations managers avoid manual dashboard investigation. Demonstrates unusually strong depth in agent reliability, orchestration, and observability, with concrete production practices like hallucination blocking, shadow testing on 500 cases, and data-driven improvements that raised user agreement to 94% while cutting GPT-4 usage by 60%.”

“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.”

“Backend/data engineer with experience at Nike building high-volume order orchestration and validation APIs using FastAPI microservices on AWS EKS with Kafka, Redis, and Postgres. Strong in production reliability (timeouts/retries/idempotency), GitOps (Argo CD) + Terraform deployments, and data pipelines (AWS Glue/S3), with hands-on incident ownership and legacy modernization into API-driven services.”

“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.”

“Software engineer with experience across early-stage startups and production full-stack systems, including migration work from a Go monolith to a Node.js backend and a clinical research application deployed on Kubernetes in AWS. Has worked across Go, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, React, SQL databases, and B2B SaaS data-streaming products.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong startup experience across small distributed teams, owning everything from React UIs to Go services and Python data pipelines. He stands out for designing stable APIs and data models in ambiguous compliance-heavy environments, with measurable impact including a 38% reduction in manual cleanup and a 27% drop in customer-visible incidents. He has also worked deeply in B2B SaaS at Ashby, supporting mission-critical recruiting workflows where data correctness, permissions, and integration stability were essential.”
