Vetted Visual Studio Code Professionals

“ML/Simulation engineer who productionized a Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning system for 30+ firms at Belt and Road Big Data Company, integrating research code into an enterprise backend via Dockerized deployment and scalable data pipelines on GCP/Vertex AI. Demonstrated strong production debugging by tracing apparent network timeouts to hardware memory exhaustion caused by software state-history garbage collection issues, and built custom reward functions to model complex market dynamics (entry/exit, pricing).”

“AWS AI Lab engineer who deployed a production Chain-of-Thought analytical agent for tabular reasoning, emphasizing grounded tool-constrained workflows with schema-validated intermediate outputs. Built robust evaluation/logging with step-level observability to catch regressions across model versions, and has experience scaling distributed LLM training via Slurm + DeepSpeed/FSDP with checkpointing and failure recovery.”

“Backend engineer with Amazon experience building large-scale, automated financial/accounting and pricing systems on AWS. Designed a fault-tolerant Step Functions + DynamoDB workflow platform handling 100K+ messages/sec to compute fair values and generate journal entries in under 3 seconds, and led safe API refactors using shadow mismatch testing. Also uncovered a major legacy pricing bug (tax vs non-tax swap) that cut mismatch rates from 5–10% to ~0.5% and materially improved price acceptance/business outcomes.”

“ML/NLP engineer focused on production-grade data and search/recommendation systems: built an end-to-end pipeline that connects unstructured customer feedback with product data using TF-IDF/BERT, Spark, and AWS (SageMaker/S3), orchestrated with Airflow and monitored for drift. Also has hands-on experience with entity resolution at scale and improving search relevance via BERT embeddings, FAISS vector search, and domain fine-tuning validated with precision@k and A/B testing.”

“Technical Director/Unity Lead who has shipped multiple Meta Quest immersive experiences and built custom Unity editor tooling to solve content-heavy pipeline constraints, enabling artists to push content directly into a Unity sandbox. Also prototyped a Unity restaurant simulation where an LLM drives NPC reasoning and state machines, using RAG and memory augmentation to reduce hallucinations and stuck behaviors.”

“Built and deployed a production chatbot on osvaldocalles.com and iterated through real-world LLM engineering issues: model quota/cost tradeoffs (migrating to Nova Pro), RAG accuracy via semantic chunking, AWS IAM/guardrail/security pitfalls, and Lambda/API Gateway streaming constraints (prefers JS for streaming layer). Experienced with agent orchestration using Strands SDK (AWS-focused) and LangGraph (Vercel/container deployments), plus evaluation pipelines using LLM-as-evaluator, dashboards, and staged model rollouts.”

“Entry-level full-stack engineer with internship experience at Amazon (Appstore IAP flow + uninstall recommendation workflow) and a health-tech startup (OneVector) where they built a DSUR reporting workflow end-to-end, including document generation, S3-backed versioning/metadata, and secure preview/download. Demonstrates strong production debugging and reliability mindset (instrumentation, deterministic retrieval, idempotent writes) and focuses on UX/performance in high-stakes user flows.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered RAG document intelligence system used by non-technical enterprise stakeholders, cutting document search time by 40%+ while improving answer consistency. Demonstrates strong MLOps/data workflow orchestration (Airflow, AWS Step Functions, managed schedulers across GCP/Azure) and a metrics-driven approach to reliability, evaluation, and cost/latency optimization with guardrails and observability.”

“Backend/security-focused engineer supporting a service with 100k+ monthly users. Built an automated load-testing suite that reproduced and mitigated catastrophic host failures from oversized SCP/rsync transfers via host-level throttling, and proposed a future sharding approach for very large transfers. Also created an internal agent to summarize anomalous metrics and provide ready-to-run debug queries, significantly reducing ops review time.”
