Vetted Software Engineers in British Columbia

“Worked on an AWS DynamoDB Journal team project building internal operator dashboards end-to-end, creating Java/Spring Boot APIs and integrating them into a Spring Boot/Thymeleaf/JavaScript UI to speed up debugging workflows. Has experience with data-heavy web apps and performance techniques (load balancing, caching, pagination, compression) plus hands-on debugging across unit/integration/E2E tests; also maintained and enhanced a React website at Global Spark.”

“Frontend engineer who has led end-to-end delivery of both an open-source JavaScript document-comparison library and complex React+TypeScript product features (e.g., Google-Drive-like auto-save with S3 persistence). Demonstrates strong architecture and performance instincts (Redux/hooks patterns, dynamic loading to improve Lighthouse scores) and pragmatic shipping/rollout skills including cross-browser mitigation with feature flags.”

“Frontend engineer with experience building an e-commerce marketplace platform (Japan-to–Hong Kong) and designing a modular, message-queue-driven architecture for scalability and reliability. Built a high-frequency, massive-state React+TypeScript interface using Redis event streaming and JSON Patch, reporting ~10x–20x performance gains over polling/immutable approaches.”

“Built an OCR backend that trains a custom Tesseract model for proprietary fonts and scales via multi-tenant isolation (tenant-scoped APIs, per-tenant storage, JWT+RBAC). Improved high-load image processing by shifting OCR to async worker queues and adding Redis caching, cutting processing time by ~66%, and also integrated Claude API to auto-generate test cases on code changes.”

“Unity gameplay/game-flow programmer with ~10 years in the games industry who has shipped on Meta Quest 1 & 2. Built a Steam-available multiplayer "Vampire Survivors"-style co-op demo largely solo in a 6-month contract, handling everything from networking and UI to performance optimization (GPU instancing) and Steam publishing.”

“Python/Django backend engineer with open-source experience upgrading Archivematica to Django 4.2 LTS, including resolving a tricky breaking change in datetime parsing by implementing a preservation-safe legacy timestamp conversion layer. Also built a cost-efficient, reproducible Small Language Model (Microsoft Phi-3) fine-tuning pipeline that turns CSV product data into a domain-specific searchable Q&A chatbot, with emphasis on memory optimization and overfitting prevention.”
