Vetted UNIX Professionals

“Built and productionized an internal GenAI chatbot that makes company policy/SOP knowledge instantly searchable, using a secure RAG architecture on AWS (Bedrock/Titan embeddings/OpenSearch Serverless, Textract/Lambda/S3 ingestion, Claude 3 Sonnet). Demonstrates strong MLOps/orchestration experience (Airflow, Step Functions with Lambda/Glue/SageMaker) and a rigorous reliability approach (RAGAS metrics, A/B testing, citation validation, monitoring), including collaboration with compliance stakeholders via review dashboards.”

“QA professional from fintech/SAP security and complex identity systems who has owned end-to-end testing across the SDLC, including being the sole QA on a high-risk payment platform carrier migration. Demonstrated strength in integration testing, data integrity validation, and diagnosing calculation/automation defects using controlled test data and scripted date emulation; experienced with JIRA/TestRail and Selenium-based regression coverage.”

“Full-stack developer with 4 years of experience and an MS in Computer Science who led frontend delivery for a large airline platform (booking, check-in, and payment flows) using Angular/TypeScript with a Java backend. Emphasizes quality at scale via SonarQube monitoring, E2E/regression testing, and iterative Agile collaboration with clients using Figma.”

“Former CEO of GravyWork with hands-on experience building an org-wide strategic plan and modernization roadmap for a growing company. Uses Michael Gerber’s innovation/orchestration/quantification framework and structured as-is/gap/to-be analysis to drive cost reduction, automation/outsourcing decisions, and leadership alignment through change.”

“Built a real-time telemedicine clinician dashboard and iterated post-launch by diagnosing lag via logs/metrics and optimizing DB queries/sync logic. Also shipped a production internal RAG knowledge assistant for support teams, including embeddings/vector DB, citation-only answers with abstention thresholds, and an eval loop driven by real ticket data that improved accuracy through chunking/overlap and batching optimizations.”

“Entrepreneur/fintech product builder who raised a $100K pre-seed from ex-Google/Microsoft execs and built a real-time, direct-to-vendor bill pay micropayments platform. Previously helped scale Norton LifeLock to 1M users (2003) and also created Karma LA, a fraud-resistant, verified donation system (including VA veteran verification) aimed at improving trust and conversion in giving.”

“AI software engineer with experience spanning LLM/RAG production systems and regulated fintech infrastructure. Built an end-to-end natural-language-to-SQL analytics assistant (Weaviate + GPT-4 + Supabase) shipped as an API with 92% accuracy and major time savings for non-technical users, and also owned demand-forecasting and CI/CD/containerization improvements for a Bank of America core banking deployment at Infosys.”

“Backend/AI engineer in healthcare/insurance (mentions Cigna) who has shipped production systems spanning high-reliability APIs, async job architectures (Celery), and LLM/RAG features. Built an LLM document assistant with Terraform-managed AWS infra, semantic search retrieval, and strict permissioning/audit logs, and designed an automated prior-authorization workflow with human-in-the-loop escalation and compliance-driven thresholds.”

“Governance engineer intern at GSK who built policy-as-code automation using Open Policy Agent/Rego integrated into GitHub CI/CD and Terraform workflows. Also built and shipped a voice-enabled expense tracking app using speech-to-text + LLM structured extraction with strong validation, retries, and semantic guardrails, and designed the supporting PostgreSQL data model with performance-focused indexing.”

“AIX/IBM Power veteran (30 years) with hands-on experience across the full stack—hardware installs, HMC/vHMC, VIOS, LPAR/DLPAR, NIM, and PowerHA fundamentals. Led SEV1 performance incidents (including Ethernet adapter tuning) and helped re-platform a large AIX estate to AWS (77 servers to ~120 EC2s) with extensive pre-cutover testing and operational automation (mksysb + sudo provisioning).”

“Backend/platform engineer with production experience building a Python SDK over a microservices ecosystem, emphasizing reliability (JWT auth, retries/timeouts, custom exceptions) and integration testing. Has delivered AWS EKS microservices with Jenkins+Helm CI/CD, strong secrets/config separation using AWS Secrets Manager, and set up Datadog APM/deployment/change monitoring. Also modernized legacy VB applications to C#/.NET WPF via incremental migration with parity testing and stakeholder sign-off.”
