Vetted Software Development Engineers in California

“Full-stack engineer who shipped a production "Financial Insight" assistant dashboard in Next.js App Router/TypeScript, integrating a RAG pipeline (embeddings + ChromaDB + LLM) via route handlers and owning post-launch performance (latency, token cost, retrieval relevance). Also built/optimized Postgres-backed workflows for an outbound dialer and callback routing engine handling ~10,000 daily contacts, validating query performance with EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS).”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in AI/ML and cloud-native systems

Los Angeles, CA3y exp

“At BondiTech, built and deployed customer-facing backend improvements for enterprise dashboards handling 1M+ records, redesigning a .NET/Entity Framework API with server-side pagination/filtering and feature-flagged rollout to cut latency from ~15s to ~2s. Experienced integrating customer systems into existing APIs, including stabilizing a legacy CRM sync by normalizing inconsistent IDs, handling strict rate limits with batching, and adding DLQs plus reconciliation reporting.”

Mid-level Backend & Applied ML Engineer specializing in LLM systems and scalable APIs

Palo Alto, CA3y exp

“Backend engineer who significantly evolved an internal analytics/reporting platform (Python API + Postgres) powering self-service dashboards for product/business teams, focusing on reliability under heavy concurrent load and fast query performance. Demonstrates strong production engineering practices across API design (FastAPI), observability, incremental rollouts with feature flags, and data security using JWT/RBAC plus Postgres row-level security.”

“Backend/platform engineer who owned an end-to-end financial data ingestion and validation system (Python/Django/FastAPI, Postgres, AWS), including large-file performance tuning, auditability, and CI/CD. Strong Kubernetes/EKS + ArgoCD GitOps practitioner and has delivered both Kafka-based real-time transaction streaming and a legacy on-prem stack migration to AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, Secrets Manager) with controlled cutovers and data consistency validation.”

“Full-stack engineer in the healthcare domain (Humana) who owned an end-to-end member portal for benefits/claims/appointments, built with React and Spring Boot microservices on AWS. Notably migrated legacy batch data flows to a Kafka streaming pipeline and tuned consumers/partitions/backpressure to improve real-time consistency and achieve ~12% processing performance gains.”

“LLM/agentic-systems practitioner who has repeatedly taken LLM-driven pricing/decision services from prototype to production using pilots, guardrails, observability, and staged rollouts. Demonstrates strong real-time incident troubleshooting (dependency timeouts, cached fallbacks) and post-incident hardening (isolation/async/alerts), and also supports go-to-market via developer workshops, technical demos, and sales-aligned POCs.”

Redwood City, CA4y exp

“Software engineer who has owned customer-facing/internal platforms end-to-end, emphasizing fast iteration through small releases backed by monitoring and rollback safety. Built SurveyAI with reusable React/TypeScript components and a stateless Node.js REST backend with clear API contracts/validation, and created an internal Airflow + AWS Lambda automation tool integrated with Slack alerts to reduce manual work and improve response time.”
