Vetted Software Engineers in California

“Google backend engineer with strong experience in large-scale identity, membership, and access-control systems. Notable work includes reconciling customer IDs across 2B+ roster records and leading a 0-to-1 Drive sharing feature to classify external users as crossover members, with a strong emphasis on correctness, rollout safety, and low-latency service design.”

“Meta engineer who has shipped both user-facing full-stack product work and internal AI agent systems at production scale. Most notably built AuditFixer, an agentic remediation pipeline that fully automated audit-fix workflows, cut turnaround from 6-7 hours to under 1 hour, and has already produced 30+ landed diffs, while also owning the Llama API evaluation flow launched for thousands of developers.”

“Backend engineer who helped redesign and refactor Forma’s backend during an app rewrite, emphasizing modularity, maintainability, and A/B testing support while delivering feature parity on a quarter-long timeline. Led a careful database migration using parallel databases with schema differences, validating integrity via staging and SQL checks, and has experience debugging subtle computer-vision overflow edge cases.”

“Solutions/implementation-focused engineer with payments expertise (Adyen headless Magento integrations, 3DS components) who also builds and troubleshoots agentic LLM workflows using the OpenAI Agents SDK. Experienced in pre-sales technical validation and in tailoring live demos/workshops—e.g., pivoted a Quantum Metric workshop from custom JavaScript instrumentation to no-code analytics based on audience needs.”

“Embedded/robotics software engineer with Hyundai Motors experience who owned an AI-driven perception validation pipeline using a Transformer-based approach to generate stable synthetic in-cabin audio for autonomy/ASR testing, cutting downstream testing time by 50%+. Has hands-on ROS integration (IMU sensor streaming, inference, control nodes), MQTT-based distributed messaging, and cloud/container deployment experience (Docker, Node/Express, AWS, CI/CD).”

“Senior software engineering leader with 20+ years of management exposure who has alternated between IC and director-level roles, leading teams of up to 25 across AI platform, analytics, Salesforce, and systems software projects. Particularly compelling for roles needing both technical depth and organizational leadership: they have architected systems themselves, built teams in new geographies, and coordinated platform, AI/data, and consumer engineering groups to deliver successful turnkey AI solutions.”

“Meta engineer who improved a critical revenue estimation dataset pipeline that was arriving ~6 days late—diagnosed via raw logs/lineage, redesigned legacy scans to only process the needed window, and shipped validation plus freshness/lag dashboards. Delivered ~50% latency reduction (to ~3 days) and regained adoption by running old/new pipelines in parallel with gated cutover and evidence-based customer communication. Applies incident-response rigor to real-time LLM/agentic workflow debugging and regularly runs developer demos/workshops.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across GCP (FastAPI microservices on Kubernetes) and AWS (Lambda, ECS Fargate, Glue). Has modernized legacy SAS batch systems into Python services with parallel-run parity validation, and has strong operational rigor in ETL reliability/monitoring plus proven SQL tuning impact (25s to <300ms, ~60% CPU reduction).”

“Backend/platform engineer with experience at Microsoft, Uber, and Gusto building production AI-agent automation systems in Python (AutoGen) and cloud-native microservices on Kubernetes across AWS/Azure. Has delivered zero-downtime migrations and high-throughput real-time streaming pipelines (Kafka/WebSockets/Redis), and is strong in GitOps/ArgoCD-driven CI/CD with reliable rollouts and rapid rollback.”

“Fintech and AI product engineer who has owned major production rollouts, including Lending Club's banking-arm launch, and has since built LLM-powered decision systems for finance and climate use cases. Particularly strong in combining stakeholder management with pragmatic architecture choices like observability, deterministic pipeline design, RAG, and document-to-structured-data workflows.”
