Senior Frontend Developer specializing in React and Next.js performance & SEO

Tbilisi, Georgia8y exp

“Frontend engineer who led end-to-end builds for chauffeur/service platforms (Mychauffeur.com, comfydrive.com), implementing Atomic Design architecture with Next.js, MUI, and Redux. Experienced in building React+TypeScript dashboards, improving performance via SSR migration, and shipping high-risk features like MADA payment integration with Cypress-based QA and Sentry monitoring.”

“Built and owned an end-to-end Python/Postgres job-tracker backend that scrapes job postings (including LinkedIn) using Selenium-driven real-browser automation, with deduplication and data-quality filtering. Has practical experience migrating deployments from DigitalOcean to Vercel and emphasizes documentation, roadmapping, and testing as part of an iterative delivery cycle.”

“Founder of distribb.io, an 8-month-old AI SEO software company already at $10k MRR. Brings 15 years of startup ecosystem exposure and a pragmatic, market-driven approach to building businesses by targeting proven demand rather than chasing novelty.”

“Backend/AI engineer who built production-grade intelligence systems in high-stakes domains including tax/legal document analysis and brain tumor MRI workflows. Stands out for combining LLM/RAG product delivery with strong engineering rigor around retrieval evaluation, grounding, validation, observability, and safe fallbacks—turning impressive demos into systems users could actually trust.”

“Backend engineer who built a production retrieval-augmented narrative analysis platform for 100-page screenplays using a Node/Express orchestrator and a Python/FastAPI AI engine, including a key redesign from disk-based uploads to in-memory streaming to eliminate Windows file-lock failures. Also led a refactor of a municipal vehicle tracking system into a C-based distributed engine handling 4M+ daily packets with 99.99% data integrity and automation that reduced manual ops by 50%.”

“Senior frontend developer with end-to-end ownership of modernizing a legacy Laravel/PHP product into a Next.js 14 + React + TypeScript stack, using TurboRepo for incremental integration. Emphasizes quality and scale through unit testing, Datadog monitoring, and performance-focused UI work (dashboards with charts/usage analytics, minimizing re-renders).”

“Frontend engineer who led an end-to-end dashboard web app build, starting from UI sketches and user stories through design documentation and a proof-of-concept to align stakeholders. Uses a modern React/TypeScript stack (TanStack Query/Table/Form, shadcn/ui, Tailwind) with Zod validation, ESLint + CodeRabbit PR checks, and Vercel Analytics for performance monitoring.”

“Frontend-focused builder who worked on the VITALES.LIFE healthcare app using Next.js/React Native alongside multiple backend technologies (NestJS, Go, Python/FastAPI) on Firebase/GCP. Has experience delivering client-driven MVPs (e.g., Omnicommander, Talentus) and uses Jest for test coverage while emphasizing code reuse and non-duplicative components.”

“Full-stack engineer operating in early-stage, high-velocity environments (OpGov.AI/UST Calibrate) who ships production Next.js App Router features end-to-end (RSC, Server Actions, SEO, RBAC, caching) and owns performance post-launch. Demonstrates strong data/infra depth—designed Postgres JSONB-based event models for DevOps/DORA analytics and tuned queries from ~2s to <50ms, plus built durable ingestion workflows with retries and idempotency on Azure.”

Junior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in Python APIs, React, and cloud AI integrations

Superior, CO2y exp

“Customer-facing software engineer who builds and deploys practical AI/RAG solutions (e.g., an AI assistant for searching billing PDFs) by deeply understanding support workflows and iterating with users. Demonstrates strong production instincts—quickly stabilizing peak-traffic API timeouts with caching/background jobs, then implementing durable fixes with proper monitoring and maintainable code practices.”

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native web, mobile, and AI features

8y exp

“Frontend lead for a consumer-facing social platform, owning architecture through release. Built scalable React/TypeScript systems (Redux Toolkit, Remix) with a shared Storybook component library and strong quality gates (CI, Jest/Cypress). Experienced modernizing legacy codebases incrementally with feature flags and shipping major dashboard features with staged rollouts and close QA collaboration.”

Taruni Reddy Ampojwala

Mid-level GenAI Engineer specializing in LLM agents and RAG systems

Brooklyn, NY4y exp

“Built and deployed a production RAG-based LLM assistant that answers day-to-day operational questions from internal PDFs/SOPs, with strong emphasis on data consistency (metadata versioning, confidence thresholds, conflict handling) and low-latency retrieval at scale. Experienced designing and orchestrating multi-agent LLM workflows (retrieval/validation/generation) and pipeline orchestration for ingestion/embedding/vector-store updates, plus iterative delivery with non-technical operations/business stakeholders.”

Yashwant Gandham

Junior Machine Learning & Backend Engineer specializing in LLM systems and ML infrastructure

Boulder, CO1y exp

“Built and deployed production RAG-based document search/Q&A systems (DocChat and an internship marketing RAG), using a React + FastAPI stack on GCP with docs stored in GCP buckets and retrieval via embeddings/vector DB. Emphasizes cost/performance tradeoffs (reported ~40% cost reduction) and ships via Docker (Railway), with load/API testing using JMeter and Swagger; regularly collaborates with a CEO stakeholder to iterate and push changes to production.”

Junior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in mobile, cloud, and GenAI integration

Syracuse, NY2y exp

“Software engineering intern with hands-on ownership of a Java/Spring Boot order management microservice, including production performance tuning via Redis caching and database indexing driven by API logs/metrics. Also contributed to a production mobile-backend LLM feature using RAG with embeddings over structured data and documents (DB + object storage), with guardrails to keep responses grounded.”

Merub SHAIKH

Junior Software Engineer specializing in full-stack web development and test automation

Chicago, IL3y exp

“Full-stack engineer who built and owned a production workflow/kanban-style drag-and-drop system in Next.js (App Router) with Postgres/Prisma, including reusable component abstractions, Cypress E2E coverage, and post-launch performance/bug ownership. Notable for measurable impact (25% faster UI dev, ~30% query perf improvement) and for leading an incremental Express→NestJS migration that reduced technical debt (~40%) through better structure, docs, and team enablement.”

“Software/product engineer who has owned a consumer iOS dating app from customer discovery through roadmap execution, while also shipping an in-app LLM-powered support/feedback bot. Brings a mix of product sense and backend systems experience, including rebuilding a race-condition-prone event orchestration system and designing microservices to handle arbitrary black-box production data.”

“Built and deployed a "personal second brain" product (CloneMind) with an end-to-end RAG pipeline for retrieving information across PDFs, URLs, images, and audio using Next.js/Node.js/Postgres/Supabase/Redis.
