Vetted Software Engineers in California

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered grading platform that automates rubric-aligned scoring and feedback, with strong guardrails (RAG grounding, structured JSON, validation/retries) and operational rigor (metrics, drift monitoring). Experienced using CrewAI to orchestrate multi-agent workflows end-to-end and validating quality via gold-set benchmarking against human graders with regression testing on every prompt/model change.”

“Built a production SQL chatbot for access-log analytics that replaced manual custom report requests with natural-language querying, using LangGraph and a ChromaDB-backed RAG pipeline for grounded, consistent answers. Implemented a privacy-preserving design where the LLM never sees raw customer data (only query metadata) and has experience building multi-agent/tool-calling systems with LangGraph (DeepAgents), including solving sub-agent communication drift via self-reflection.”

“Backend-focused JavaScript/Node.js engineer with e-commerce domain depth from Decathlon, working on foundational microservices for order management, inventory, and fulfillment integrations. Led an infrastructure redesign and shipped a Shopify-based persistent cart experience, diagnosing early production issues via monitoring/log analysis and improving reliability through stronger session persistence and fault-tolerant architecture.”

“Robotics engineer with hands-on experience scaling a multi-vendor heterogeneous warehouse robot fleet, building a distributed “traffic manager” for collision avoidance and real-time rerouting using CBS/MAPF and DCOP-style negotiation. Strong real-time/safety-critical systems background (RTOS, deterministic lock-free multithreading) plus modern perception and simulation tooling (CNN-LSTM/transformers, CARLA/Isaac Sim, VIO/GTSAM, camera-IMU calibration). Startup-oriented and comfortable moving quickly from prototype to production.”

“Hands-on backend/AI engineer who solo-built two production Claude-based agent systems: an internal Slack RAG over Confluence/Jira/code/regulatory docs and a HIPAA/GDPR-compliant patient chatbot with embedding guardrails and expert-in-the-loop evals. Also architected a multi-region patient portal + microservices platform with Terraform/CI-CD and federated gateways, delivering major onboarding automation and strong reliability wins (PgBouncer, chaos/perf testing).”

“Data/QA-focused professional with experience at Lonza and Jio Platforms, owning end-to-end data reliability work for QC forecasting (SAP/LIMS) and driving root-cause/corrective actions for recurring environment configuration issues. Strong in SQL-based data standardization/validation, requirements tightening for API consistency, and coordinating multi-workstream delivery using Jira/Azure DevOps.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in iOS and full-stack development

Sunnyvale, CA3y exp

“Cross-platform (web + mobile) product engineer working on coupon clipping experiences. Built and shipped category-based filtering informed by external market data (Rakuten/Honey) and internal user-journey analytics, validated via A/B testing and resulting in a 30% traffic lift. Experienced handling on-call production incidents, including rapid root-cause analysis and hotfixing a mobile crash that was blocking a release.”

Junior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in FinTech and machine learning

California, USA3y exp

“Software engineer at early-stage startup Cari with hands-on experience shipping AI-enabled production workflows, including an LLM chatbot for a micro-transit platform and an automated image-processing pipeline integrated with Claude. Stands out for combining practical agent reliability patterns—schema validation, fallbacks, caching, and idempotency—with strong ML evaluation instincts and experience cleaning messy operational invoice data.”

Mid-level AI Engineer specializing in LLM agents and evaluation systems

California, USA4y exp

“Built an end-to-end Python integration for an emotion-aware presentation feedback system that processed uploaded or live video and analyzed facial emotion, tone, and gestures. Also has Playwright automation experience in a loan management workflow, with emphasis on reliability, observability, security, and iterative delivery under ambiguous requirements.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer who has built operational dashboards in both startup logistics and distributed systems observability contexts. They helped ship Quickflora's delivery management platform used across multiple stores for thousands of daily deliveries, and also owned a metrics dashboard in ResLens handling node-level runtime data and 10k+ datapoints.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in FinTech

Irvine, CA6y exp

“Engineer with hands-on experience building and deploying end-to-end ML inference pipelines using SageMaker, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, and Kafka-backed real-time data systems. Brings a strong distributed-systems mindset and has already operated in a tech lead capacity through architecture decisions, code reviews, and cross-functional coordination. Especially compelling for teams building production AI/ML platforms that need both practical execution and sound engineering judgment.”

Junior Front-End Developer specializing in insurance web applications

San Jose, USA3y exp

“Full-stack developer who uses AI selectively for refactoring, regex, API typing, and test scaffolding while maintaining strict manual review for security, correctness, and architectural fit. Recently shipped insurance-related features such as policy issuance and reinstatement, and demonstrated hands-on debugging of async React issues by identifying duplicate fetches in DevTools and fixing them with AbortController.”

“Early-career engineer who built and launched a zero-to-one AI-driven approval workflow at SDSU that is used daily by roughly 2,000 university users. They owned the system end-to-end—from FastAPI/PostgreSQL backend to React UI—and showed strong judgment around LLM reliability, using a two-step pipeline, validation checks, and human-review fallbacks to cut manual processing time by about 80%.”

“LLM/agent builder who has shipped production AI systems in the wellness space, including an LLM-powered food tracking product used by 5000+ users and a voice/call-routing onboarding workflow using LangGraph/LangChain with LiveKit and Twilio. Strong focus on practical reliability work: latency reduction, retrieval/embedding tuning, and CI-driven evaluation with simulations and metrics.”
