Vetted UNIX Professionals

“Backend engineer with deep experience modernizing a provider credentialing/compliance platform with multiple upstream/downstream integrations. Focused on building predictable, scalable REST APIs (primarily ASP.NET Core; framework-agnostic approach applicable to FastAPI), improving performance via DB/query optimization, and hardening workflows with idempotency, transactions, feature flags, and strong auth/RBAC patterns.”

“Built a production "Mini RAG Assistant" for internal document Q&A, focusing on grounded answers (anti-hallucination), retrieval quality, and latency/cost optimization. Uses LangChain/LangGraph for orchestration and applies a metrics-driven evaluation loop (including reranking and semantic chunking improvements) while collaborating closely with product stakeholders.”

“Full-stack engineer focused on data-heavy platforms, building Spring Boot microservices and Angular/React dashboards end-to-end. Has hands-on experience improving large-scale API and UI performance (including cutting 8–10s response times) and ensuring cross-service consistency using Kafka, idempotent consumers, and strong validation/transaction patterns on AWS with CI/CD and observability (Prometheus/ELK).”

“LLM/RAG-focused engineer who repeatedly takes agentic workflows from impressive demos to dependable production using rigorous evals, SLOs, and deep observability. Has led high-impact incident mitigation (22-minute MTTR during a major sale) and developer enablement workshops, and partnered with sales to close a $410k ARR enterprise deal with a tailored RAG pilot (FastAPI/pgvector/Okta/InfoSec-ready).”

“AI research engineer who has built and tested LLM agents end-to-end, including a Telegram real-time voice-to-typing assistant integrated with calendar scheduling. Emphasizes production concerns (security via mic-triggered activation, multi-model fallbacks, monitoring) and agent predictability using a GPT-3.5-based critic plus structured outputs (Pydantic) and ReAct-style orchestration.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer who has owned production TypeScript systems in both fintech-style transaction/rewards flows and HIPAA-regulated healthcare platforms. Deep focus on correctness and reliability (idempotency, retries/DLQs, reconciliation, observability) plus strong infra automation (Docker/Terraform/CI-CD) and measurable performance wins (40% query improvement, 90% test coverage).”

“Backend/data engineer focused on AWS-based, low-latency event processing for market data and social-signal sentiment systems. Has led a monolith-to-event-driven migration with feature-flagged incremental rollout, and emphasizes production-grade security (OAuth2/JWT, secrets management, Supabase RLS) and data integrity (deduplication/idempotency) under high-volume spike conditions.”

“Cloud-focused application security practitioner with hands-on AWS and Kubernetes experience, including securing a manufacturing monitoring platform (API auth, least-privilege IAM, CI/CD security checks) and troubleshooting a production data-ingestion outage caused by an overly restrictive IAM change. Experienced in implementing cloud-native security tooling (IAM Access Analyzer, Inspector, CloudWatch) and deploying monitoring/security agents via Kubernetes sidecars with Helm, Prometheus/Grafana, and Jenkins-driven CI/CD.”

“Data engineer who has owned production pipelines end-to-end—from Kafka/Airflow ingestion through SQL/Python validation and dbt transformations into Redshift/BI. Also built and operated a large-scale distributed web scraping platform (50–100 sites daily, ~5–10M records/day) with Kubernetes, Kafka queues, robust retries/DLQ, anti-bot measures, and backfill-safe raw HTML storage.”

“Full-stack product engineer with strong web3/blockchain experience, having built invoicing/tokenization, transaction explorer, and no-code workflow products across React, Node.js/serverless, and SQL. Stands out for combining deep technical execution with product thinking—improving onboarding completion by ~40%, shipping quickly under ambiguity, and creating reusable platform primitives for auditability and multi-tenant customization.”

“Backend engineer experienced in evolving high-scale legacy on-prem systems into cloud-native, event-driven microservices on AWS/Kubernetes (noted peak traffic ~1.5M QPS). Strong focus on reliability engineering and operational excellence—SLO-driven observability, GitOps/canary rollouts, chaos testing, and preventing cascading failures (e.g., retry-storm mitigation).”

Entry-level Full-Stack Engineer specializing in AI and distributed systems

California, USA1y exp

“Full-stack engineer who built an AI-based inventory/procurement query system at Botlily/Botlerly using Flask and Google Sheets as a live knowledge base, overcoming Sheets latency with caching and structured in-memory models. Demonstrated strong LLM product engineering (40% accuracy improvement via preprocessing/prompting) and customer-driven iteration with bar/restaurant owners, evolving the tool into a more comprehensive inventory management and forecasting solution.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience spanning enterprise financial services and biomedical AI systems. They’ve shipped React/TypeScript and Spring Boot products with measurable production impact, contributed to an AWS-deployed LLM/MCP service for governed research data on Synapse, and also built a zero-to-one AI-powered Terms of Service and privacy policy crawler from scratch.”
