Vetted Software Development Engineers in California

“New grad focused on AI systems and agent-based development, with hands-on experience using LLMs as a coding partner and building RAG-based document processing workflows. Stands out for practical experimentation with semantic chunking, retrieval optimization, and multi-agent architectures, including redesigning a RAG workflow by adding a reasoning agent to improve response accuracy and reliability.”

Entry-Level Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and FinTech

Fremont, CA1y exp

“Software engineering intern experience at Zoho Corp and Zeus Desk building and deploying customer-facing systems. Delivered a real-time booking platform backend that stayed stable for 1,000+ users by optimizing MySQL queries/indexing and shipping hotfixes during production latency incidents. Also integrated financial operations APIs across 50+ small-bank partners by creating a normalization/validation layer to handle inconsistent partner data and prevent integration breakages.”

“Full-stack software engineer who shipped production systems in academic and e-commerce contexts, including a UC Irvine course recommendation platform with async Kafka-based OCR processing (Tesseract) and LangChain-driven recommendations. Strong in building polished React/TypeScript dashboards (Figma-to-implementation) and owning Python backends (FastAPI/Flask) with solid API design, caching, and AWS EKS deployments; delivered measurable impact (tripled engagement, ~50% faster processing).”

“Backend Python engineer who architected an event-driven order integration engine connecting EDI vendors to ERP/WMS/3PL systems, including a canonical order model and adapter framework to eliminate per-customer hardcoding. Has hands-on Kubernetes production experience (microservices, Celery workers, CronJobs, HPAs) and implemented GitOps/CI-CD using GitHub Actions, Docker, and ArgoCD, including moving deployments from on-prem to Azure.”

“CloudData engineer who productionized an LLM assistant for a warehouse/logistics customer by wrapping it as a versioned, containerized API with guardrails, deterministic post-processing, and full observability. Experienced diagnosing real-time RAG/agentic incidents (latency spikes and confident-wrong answers) using trace-based isolation, replay in staging, retrieval tuning, and canary releases. Regularly runs technical demos/workshops and partners with sales on security/IAM, SLAs, and pilot rollouts to drive adoption.”
