Vetted Software Developers

“LLM engineer who has shipped production AI systems, including an RFP requirements extraction platform (OpenAI o4-mini + Azure AI Search + FastAPI) achieving 90%+ accuracy and ~5x throughput through grounding, structured outputs, parallelization, and caching. Also partnered with legal/compliance stakeholders at Nexteer Automotive to deliver an AI document comparison tool with traceability and confidence indicators, adopted by non-technical users and saving ~2 FTEs of review time.”

“React-focused engineer who built a full-stack analytics/test-metrics dashboard (React frontend + Python backend) and turned common UI pieces (data tables, filter panels, chart wrappers) into a reusable internal component library with docs, examples, and basic tests. Strong on profiling-driven performance optimization (React Profiler, memoization) and on owning ambiguous internal-tool projects end-to-end; now planning to package internal patterns into public open-source components.”

“Backend-focused engineer who built an internal wiki LLM chatbot end-to-end using FastAPI, Kubernetes, and ChromaDB vector search, including frontend integration. Also has strong DevOps/migration experience—automating large work-item and repo migrations (Jira/FogBugz/ADO on-prem to cloud) via Python scripts, JSON mappings, REST APIs, and validation test suites.”

“Backend engineer with SAP experience modernizing a legacy Flask/PostgreSQL product master data platform into a modular, stateless, containerized service with Kafka-based background processing and improved observability. Also has hands-on academic/side-project experience operationalizing ML (NLP retrieval with TF-IDF/BERT via FastAPI and CV lane-edge detection inference APIs using PyTorch).”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native microservices and event-driven systems

San Francisco, CA4y exp

“Full-stack engineer with production experience at Atlassian and Zoho, spanning GraphQL federation, React/TypeScript frontends, and cloud-native AWS/Kubernetes operations. Built and operated a federated GraphQL gateway with Terraform + CI/CD + observability, delivering major latency and integration-time improvements, and also designed high-volume Kafka data pipelines (10M+ events/day) with strong reliability guarantees.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience spanning Amazon IMDb and Northeastern’s NeuroJSON portal, combining consumer product work with complex scientific data applications. Built IMDb’s streaming providers feature—described as the company’s most impactful feature of 2023—and has hands-on experience with React/Angular, GraphQL, AWS, Python services, and production monitoring.”

“Built an AI-powered job outreach application for his own job search and took it from idea to production use, owning architecture, FastAPI backend, retrieval/generation pipeline, frontend workflow, deployment, and iteration. Especially compelling for teams needing a pragmatic full-stack engineer who can turn LLM-based product ideas into usable, maintainable tools with measurable workflow impact.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer with hands-on experience building financial operations and transaction monitoring products from 0→1 through production scale. They stand out for owning React UI architecture, backend/API integration, and data-layer performance decisions while making pragmatic startup tradeoffs and improving features post-launch based on latency, error, and user feedback.”

“Full-stack engineer with 5+ years of experience who built real-time data visualization and analytics systems at Uber, spanning React/TypeScript frontends, Node/GraphQL services, Kafka pipelines, and PostgreSQL. Particularly compelling for teams needing a hands-on builder who can turn ambiguous customer needs into scalable products, and who has also applied RAG with LangChain/OpenAI over 1.8M support files to surface actionable insights.”

“Backend engineer focused on cloud/distributed systems, deploying Java 17/Spring Boot microservices on AWS EKS with RDS and Kafka. Demonstrated strong production readiness work (DB lock mitigation, Kafka idempotency, gradual rollouts) and delivered a major latency improvement (~400ms to ~100ms). Also has proven cross-layer troubleshooting skills, isolating intermittent API timeouts to a specific Kubernetes node’s network interface issue, and partners closely with ops teams to build dashboards and workflow automation (including Python scripts).”
