Vetted Software Development Engineers in the Bay Area

“Software engineer (2+ years in India) and current GenAI intern who shipped LLM-powered review-writing enhancements at Myntra (Walmart-backed), using pilots and A/B tests to lift review quality by 5% in 30 days. Demonstrates strong LLM operations discipline (logging, dashboards, alerts, rollback) and fast incident response, plus experience delivering developer-focused workshops and public technical talks.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (5+ years) with Shopify experience integrating LLM/RAG workflows into production APIs. Owned a Python TensorFlow Serving inference pipeline connected to Java microservices via gRPC, optimizing tail latency at ~10k concurrent load and improving retrieval relevance with embedding and evaluation work. Strong Kubernetes/EKS + GitOps/CI/CD background, including monolith-to-microservices migrations and event-driven streaming patterns.”

“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.”

“Product-focused full-stack engineer building a GenAI-powered case summarization workflow for a telemetry dashboard, spanning React/TypeScript UI (confidence indicators, reasoning traces) and Python/FastAPI backend with caching to control LLM latency/cost. Has operated services on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS Postgres, S3) and Kubernetes, and has hands-on experience resolving real production latency incidents through query/index optimization and caching.”

“Search/backend engineer with hands-on experience improving Apache Solr-based search systems end-to-end (indexing strategy changes, ETL updates, and Java/Spring Boot Search API work). Demonstrated production rigor with QA partnership, A/B testing, and rollback-safe kill switches, plus measurable product impact (e.g., +1.5% add-to-cart) and operational troubleshooting including traffic/security mitigation.”

“Backend/platform engineer who built a high-scale audience segmentation and real-time targeting system using Spark/Glue + S3/Hudi and low-latency API services backed by Redis/relational stores. Demonstrates strong production rigor: Spark performance tuning to eliminate OOM failures, API idempotency/caching to cut p95 latency ~40%, and careful dual-run/feature-flag migrations with reconciliation and rollback runbooks. Experienced implementing layered security with JWT/OAuth, RBAC/ABAC, and database row-level security to prevent privilege escalation.”

“Built and maintained an internal JavaScript/React real-time event monitoring UI used by multiple Goldman Sachs teams (e.g., Private Wealth Management and Bulk Trading Systems). Focused on scaling performance under hundreds of events/sec—using profiling, memoization, batching, and debouncing—and paired it with strong internal documentation and disciplined incident diagnosis via synthetic load testing and logs/metrics.”

“Software engineer with experience spanning an SEL internship and Walmart, combining backend/data pipeline work (Python, Kafka, relational DBs) with DevOps practices (Docker, Grafana, GitHub/Jenkins CI/CD, GitOps). Notably contributed to a REST-to-GraphQL migration aimed at reducing cloud utilization and implemented testing strategies to validate the transition.”
