Senior Frontend Engineer specializing in high-performance React/Next.js web apps

Remote, Canada8y exp

“Frontend engineer with experience at Autodesk and Quantify, leading and scaling Next.js/React + TypeScript products from architecture through QA. Strong focus on performance (Core Web Vitals, ISR, caching/CDN) and real-time interfaces (WebSockets, Chart.js/D3), with measurable wins like 30–40% bundle reduction and ~60% less data overfetching using GraphQL/Apollo.”

“Frontend-focused engineer (~8 years) with strong React/TypeScript and Angular experience who leads end-to-end UI architecture, performance budgets, and quality practices at scale. Known for restructuring large, tightly coupled codebases into feature-based domains to eliminate UI freezes and improve team throughput, and for tight Product/Design/QA alignment via a “3 Amigos” process that catches workflow gaps early. Currently seeking a new frontend role due to GE Vernova outsourcing; has been acquired twice by large companies.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in React/Next.js web applications

Calgary, Canada6y exp

“Frontend-focused engineer who has led end-to-end delivery for an ecommerce web app and built complex React + TypeScript dashboards with real-time data and multi-step workflows. Strong in scalable architecture (typed API layers, shared hooks, design systems), quality at scale (Jest/RTL + Playwright), and performance optimization (virtualization, lazy-loading, memoization). Experienced shipping high-impact checkout changes via feature-flagged rollouts with metric/error monitoring and rapid iteration.”

“Built and productionized an LLM-driven document verification workflow for a construction firm’s submittals process, moving from a Vercel/Next.js prototype to a FastAPI + LangChain/LangGraph backend with background workers and multi-server deployment. Uses LLM tools (e.g., OpenAI Codex/Cloud Code) for rapid development and log-driven root cause analysis, and partners with customer teams on evaluation metrics and iterative improvements.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on experience shipping production computer vision and GenAI systems, including a fabric defect detection platform that combined vision models with agentic LLM workflows to reach 89% human-inspector agreement at 200 ms latency. Also built a RAG-based code QA tool for developers and emphasizes production monitoring, evaluation, caching, and reusable Python service design.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in AI platforms and full-stack systems

Santa Clara, CA4y exp

“Built and shipped a production AI-powered Q&A/RAG onboarding assistant at One Community Global that unified knowledge across Notion, Google Docs, and Slack, cutting volunteer onboarding time by 45%. Demonstrates strong end-to-end ownership: LangChain agent orchestration integrated into a FastAPI backend, rigorous evaluation (200-query dataset, ~85% accuracy), and production feedback/monitoring with source-attributed answers to build user trust.”

“Enterprise-minded builder who has owned complex, high-impact systems from discovery through stabilization, including a customer master data platform at AB InBev serving 2,000 sales reps across 13 countries. Also demonstrates strong AI product instincts, having built a first-place ReAct-style NYC property intelligence agent at IBM's AI Demystified Hackathon, while showing deep rigor in data quality, integrations, and production reliability.”

Mid-level Customer Engineer specializing in enterprise search and technical delivery

New York, NY7y exp

“Search-focused technical consultant/customer success engineer with 6+ years in B2B SaaS, supporting government, higher ed, mid-market, and enterprise customers including Fortune 500 brands like Mondelez, Hasbro, and Sanofi. Particularly strong in enterprise search architecture, personalization data design, and expansion use cases, with hands-on experience shaping solution decisions for retailers such as Snipes and Rue Gilt Groupe.”

“Frontend engineer with production experience at UWM and Ford.com, focused on complex UI architecture, dynamic form systems, and high-performance interactive experiences. Stands out for rebuilding problematic React/Redux patterns into reactive RxJS-driven architectures, with measurable wins like reducing an 8-second, 5,000-request widget to a fast, stable experience, and for also building advanced personal projects in Solid.js, mapping, and WebGL.”

“LLM/RAG engineer who took a PDF-heavy agent from prototype to production for an Africa-based client, combining Pinecone retrieval with robust PDF parsing (unstructured.io, OCR, structured table extraction). Demonstrates strong production mindset (eval metrics, prompt hardening, security/scalability) and measurable optimization impact (30% efficiency gain, 2x faster responses), and has helped close deals by building security-focused POCs for skeptical IT stakeholders.”

“Backend engineer with experience at Roche and Jarsy focused on API and data-layer performance. Re-architected slow generalized endpoints into more efficient APIs (30% faster lookups) and led a schema refactor/migration with feature-flag rollout, dual writes, rollback scripts, and automated integrity checks; also addressed pipeline duplicate-entry issues via deduplication.”

“Built and scaled a multi-agent LLM automation pipeline during a fintech internship, growing from a rapid 1-week proof-of-concept to a 15+ agent hierarchical system that cut market brief report generation time from ~5 hours to under 30 minutes. Hands-on with agent frameworks (Haystack, CrewAI, LangChain) and experienced in debugging agent communication issues via sandboxed modular testing and context/token management; also regularly gives architecture-first technical demos at multiple hackathons and university events.”

“Backend/platform engineer who has owned end-to-end production systems in financial/claims domains, including a transaction analytics microservice platform processing ~10M daily operations and cutting latency from ~150ms to <70ms. Also productionized an LLM-powered monitoring/alerting capability (Llama 3 + FastAPI) with prompt design, guardrails, and production evaluation, and led monolith-to-microservices modernization on AWS using feature flags and parallel runs.”
