Vetted Software Engineers in the Austin Metro

“Backend engineer with Paycom experience who deployed a TypeScript web app on AWS and is re-architecting Stripe webhook handling using Kafka for durable, high-throughput asynchronous processing. Also delivered a freelance Python solution for a hospital that ingested sensor API data, normalized inconsistent readings, generated reports, and sent threshold-based email alerts while collaborating directly with hospital staff.”

“Backend/data engineer with strong production experience across Python microservices (FastAPI) and AWS serverless/data platforms (Lambda, API Gateway, Glue, Redshift). Demonstrates reliability and incident ownership (rate limits, retries/circuit breakers, monitoring) and has delivered measurable SQL performance gains (12–15s to <800ms, ~60% CPU reduction). Seeking fully remote work and not open to relocation/onsite meetings.”

“Backend engineer who built an Emergency Alert System with Virginia Tech for the City of Alexandria, focusing on real-time ingestion, secure dashboards, and AI-assisted prioritization. Emphasizes high-stakes reliability with guardrails (hybrid rules+LLM, confidence-based fallbacks), scalable async processing, and defense-in-depth security (JWT/RBAC plus database row-level security).”

“Full-stack product engineer who builds and owns production features across Next.js/React/TypeScript and Java Spring Boot, with strong Postgres data modeling and performance tuning. Has delivered measurable improvements (60%+ faster renders, 2s→100ms queries, 50% lower workflow latency) and built reliable Kafka-based workflows with robust observability (Prometheus/Grafana/Alertmanager) and high test coverage.”

“Backend engineer with fintech/transaction-processing experience who built and optimized a Spring Boot + PostgreSQL + AWS service handling money transactions, resolving peak-traffic latency via query/index and connection pool tuning. Shipped an LLM-driven risk-flagging workflow integrated via a FastAPI Python service, owning prompt design, validation guardrails, monitoring, and human-in-the-loop escalation to reduce false positives and improve precision over time.”

“Backend/infra-focused engineer who owned production systems for distributed ML experimentation (hyperparameter tuning across a cluster with GPU scaling, custom scheduling, and checkpoint-based fault tolerance). Also built and operated a low-latency log validation service using queued async workflows with idempotency, retries/backoff, and strong observability, plus experience building resilient Selenium-based browser automations for complex multi-step web flows.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in LLM applications, RAG, and OCR automation

Austin, TX3y exp

“At Trellis, built and shipped a production multi-agent, authenticated GenAI chatbot for sensitive financial account inquiries (loan/payment lookups), using dynamic model routing to control latency and cost while improving accuracy. Implemented prompt-injection defenses (Meta Prompt Guard), RAG with LangChain, and LLM-as-a-judge evaluation; the system cut manual support call volume by 40%+ and was refined through close collaboration with QA-driven user testing.”

Intern Network/Applied Engineer specializing in cloud security and Kubernetes

Austin, TX2y exp

“Security-focused engineer with hands-on experience implementing and troubleshooting security tooling (including an open-source SIEM) and integrating SCA/container scanning into AWS/EKS and GitHub Actions pipelines. Demonstrates strong cloud security fundamentals (least-privilege IAM, IRSA, private subnet/VPC design, CloudTrail/GuardDuty) and can translate security-usability tradeoffs (e.g., password policy and 2FA) to different stakeholders.”

“Early engineering hire at The Coaching Market (B2B2C e-learning startup) who owned re-engineering core REST APIs (FastAPI) and shipping an enhanced Next.js UI, plus automating most deployments via CircleCI/Vercel. Strong in data-driven iteration (surveys/Jira/Slack + Google Analytics, A/B tests) and reliability/performance improvements with measurable impact (30% less downtime, 40% faster releases, 25% faster loads).”
