Vetted Software Developers in California

“Zero Trust security product lead focused on UI/API delivery, stability, and customer adoption at enterprise scale, including deployments serving 1200 customers. Stands out for hands-on production debugging across the full stack, customer-facing incident ownership, and a pragmatic approach to turning failures into automated regression coverage.”

“Backend-focused engineer building customer support/order-tracking platforms with Java 17/Spring Boot microservices and a React/TypeScript frontend. Deep experience running event-driven systems on Kubernetes (Kafka, Redis, MySQL) with strong observability (Prometheus/Grafana/Splunk), SLOs, and safe deployment practices (feature flags, canaries). Also built an internal monitoring/debugging dashboard that consolidated metrics and logs for on-call engineers and was adopted by other teams to speed incident response.”

Engineering Leader specializing in Digital Health, AI, and Cloud Platforms

Santa Clara, CA16y exp

“Senior Engineering Manager at Roche leading two Scrum teams building internally shared (“inner-sourced”) tools and libraries for a healthcare enterprise. Has led security/compliance-first architecture decisions (e.g., Python AI modules running inside a Java container) and front-end modularization (Angular monorepo to module federation), with a strong focus on developer experience via automated Swagger/OpenAPI documentation and robust testing/versioning practices.”

“Built and owned an end-to-end AV operations automation and dashboarding platform for USC event operations, used daily to coordinate hundreds of live events. Delivered a React/TypeScript full-stack system integrating Smartsheet APIs with strong reliability practices (typed contracts, validation/fallbacks, safe rollouts) and experience with queue-based microservice patterns (idempotency, retries, DLQs, monitoring).”

“Candidate has hands-on experience delivering production data and AI systems, including an AWS-based real-time data platform for a financial client at Deloitte and a production RAG workflow that cut manual search time by 40%. They stand out for combining strong data engineering depth with practical LLM governance, incident debugging, and stakeholder management across business and risk/compliance teams.”
