Vetted WebSockets Professionals

“Backend/data engineer focused on production ML/LLM systems: built a real-time FastAPI inference API on Kubernetes with strong reliability patterns (timeouts, idempotent retries, centralized error handling). Delivered AWS platforms using EKS + Lambda with GitHub Actions/Helm CI/CD and built Glue-based ETL from S3/Kafka into Snowflake with schema evolution and data-quality controls; also modernized legacy analytics/recommendation workflows into Python services with safe, feature-flagged cutovers.”

“Engineering leader (12+ years Director, 17 years lead) focused on developer productivity and platform/framework work across Oracle, PlayStation, Workday, and CafePress. Notable for building distributed teams from scratch and delivering high-impact platform architecture—e.g., re-architected PlayStation’s upload pipeline to support 500GB–5TB submissions using browser-to-AWS chunked uploads with SNS/SQS and deduplication/resume support.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in AI platforms and scalable web systems

Live Oak, FL12y exp

“Built and shipped production agentic/LLM systems that could safely perform real customer and subscription operations, not just answer questions. Demonstrates unusually strong depth in agent orchestration, tool safety, evals, tracing, and backend workflow design across Node.js/TypeScript, Go, Redis, Postgres, Kafka, and GPT-4.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in front-end architecture and enterprise web apps

Santa Clara, CA10y exp

“Frontend-leaning product engineer with strong full-stack collaboration experience across TikTok and Rivian, owning complex internal platforms from concept to production. Stands out for combining product thinking with technical depth: led a high-impact reporting platform initiative that materially increased adoption and CSAT, and also incubated an AI lead-research agent from scratch without a PM.”

Junior Software Development Engineer specializing in cloud security and CI/CD

Herndon, VA2y exp

“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.”

“Unity/C# gameplay engineer who has shipped a modular, data-driven combat ability system with strong measurable outcomes (≈80% fewer GC allocations, 15–20% better frame times, 10–12% higher early retention). Also integrated an LLM-driven NPC dialogue/quest hint system with a C#/.NET backend, caching/guardrails, and telemetry-driven iteration, and shipped Photon PUN real-time 4-player co-op plus a shared codebase across Meta Quest VR and iOS/Android.”

“Fintech engineer with high-ownership startup experience at Column, where they led a Go rewrite of a core banking API that cut transaction errors by 98% and increased throughput by 40%. Brings a rare mix of backend systems depth in compliance-sensitive money movement infrastructure and frontend platform experience building React design systems, with earlier experience at Meta on recommendation APIs and News Feed.”

“Front-end engineer who significantly owned the Microsoft Teams personal copilot web experience for enterprise customers, including real-time streaming chat powered by WebSockets and bot infrastructure. Stands out for combining browser UI architecture, accessibility/localization work across 30 languages, and strong production telemetry/incident ownership for reliability at scale.”
