Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in Generative AI and MLOps

Missouri, USA3y exp

“LLM/agent engineer who has shipped production RAG chatbots in sustainability-focused domains, including a packaging recommendation assistant that standardized messy user inputs and used Pinecone-backed retrieval over product/regulatory data. Experienced orchestrating end-to-end ML workflows with Airflow and AWS Step Functions/Lambda, emphasizing reliability (property-based testing, circuit breakers, OpenTelemetry) and measurable performance (latency/cost). Partnered closely with non-technical leadership to ship 3 weeks early, driving adoption by 150+ businesses and ~20% reported waste reduction.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience spanning Amazon IMDb and Northeastern’s NeuroJSON portal, combining consumer product work with complex scientific data applications. Built IMDb’s streaming providers feature—described as the company’s most impactful feature of 2023—and has hands-on experience with React/Angular, GraphQL, AWS, Python services, and production monitoring.”

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in FinTech, cloud microservices, and blockchain

Tempe, AZ10y exp

“Python/ML engineer with strong DevOps depth: built an end-to-end regime-aware stock prediction system (custom fine-tuned FinBERT sentiment + technical/macro features) delivering a 12% accuracy lift. Also implemented Kubernetes/Helm + Jenkins/GitHub Actions pipelines (including GitOps-style workflows for multi-cloud Hyperledger Besu) and improved deployment speed/stability by ~50% while addressing race conditions and image drift.”

Staff Backend Software Engineer specializing in telemetry pipelines and observability

San Jose, CA3y exp

“Backend engineer from VMware focused on proprietary enterprise systems (monitoring tools, data pipelines, and APIs). Drove a ClickHouse migration POC (local to remote host) using a dual-write/cutover approach and source-level debugging across Node/driver differences during a Node 12→20 upgrade, and delivered measurable performance gains (~20% CPU/memory improvement) through batching and streaming ingestion.”

“Backend engineer who built and evolved an internal multi-agent AI research platform (Electron + FastAPI) integrating OpenAI, focused on fast, reproducible experimentation with strong observability and run metadata for debugging. Has led incremental backend refactors with feature flags and parallel validation, and brings production-grade access control expertise from ServiceNow (table/field ACLs and row-level-style enforcement).”

“End-to-end deployment owner for Oracle document delivery/print services in a hospital-like production environment, focused on reliability/performance at scale (thousands of systems). Also describes implementing event-driven RAG/agentic LLM workflows with attention to embeddings/index consistency, latency, and measurable improvements in response relevance and operational efficiency.”

“Engineer working in a venture-studio-style company that spins up SaaS products and new businesses, often owning early product and technical direction across teams ranging from 1 to 100 people. Particularly strong at hardware-software systems: they led software design and hardware choices for a 360 vision product and built a company-wide HIL testing platform with Go/Python/TypeScript, multi-language SDKs, and flexible endpoint architecture.”

“Software Design Lead on a NAVAIR-sponsored senior design capstone building an Unreal Engine 5 UAV/LiDAR simulation to support sensor spoofing detection. Reverse-engineered and standardized LiDAR packet formats and integrated the sim with Simulink and an NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano over Ethernet to enable stable real-time SIL/HIL testing, leveraging strong Linux/kernel networking knowledge to debug latency and packet loss.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Developer specializing in cloud-native web apps and APIs

Tampa, FL5y exp

“Backend engineer with experience building microservice-based systems that integrate LLM workflows (code review suggestions, documentation generation, test scaffolding) using REST APIs, Celery/Redis, and OpenTelemetry for observability. Demonstrates hands-on database and performance optimization in PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy (bulk inserts, lock mitigation, cursor-based pagination) plus multi-tenant data isolation via tenant-aware models, middleware scoping, and schema/row-level strategies.”

Principal Software Architect specializing in cloud platforms, data engineering, and enterprise security

Seattle, WA29y exp

“Engineering leader with experience defining solutions from business requirements through detailed specifications and implementation, emphasizing cost-aware technology selection. Has led architectural changes including adding IBM Cloud alongside AWS for budget reasons and integrating caching/messaging to improve availability and performance, and describes scaling distributed teams via experienced DevOps/QA hires and structured evaluation.”

Shriya Bannikop

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in cloud platforms, data engineering, and distributed systems

Seattle, WA5y exp

“Full-stack engineer who built and owned an AI-assisted job-matching dashboard in Next.js App Router/TypeScript, keeping LLM logic server-side and improving performance via deduplication, caching/revalidation, and streaming (35% fewer duplicate LLM calls; 40% faster first render). Also has strong data/backend chops: designed Postgres models and optimized queries at million-record scale (1.8s to 120ms) and built durable AWS multi-region telemetry workflows with idempotency, retries, and monitoring.”

“Walmart engineer who built and shipped a production LLM+RAG system to automate triage and analysis of computer support chats/tickets, producing grounded, schema-constrained JSON outputs for summaries, urgency, and routing recommendations. Emphasizes reliability (hallucination control, confidence thresholds, human-in-the-loop) and runs end-to-end pipelines with Airflow and AWS-native orchestration, plus rigorous evaluation and monitoring tied to business KPIs.”

“Java full-stack developer who has owned data-intensive, customer-facing and internal web products end-to-end (React/Angular + Spring Boot), including CI/CD and production support. Demonstrates deep microservices experience with RabbitMQ/event-driven architecture, idempotency, DLQs, and compensating logic to maintain reliability and data consistency at scale, plus a track record of replacing spreadsheet-based ops reporting with an adopted real-time internal tool.”
