Vetted Software Engineers in Colorado

“Startup operations/product advisor and long-time accelerator mentor who has helped multiple early-stage companies become enterprise-ready—shifting teams to customer-driven roadmaps and implementing CI/Agile delivery processes. Notably supported an Israeli company in landing a Fortune 30 customer before it later IPO’d on NASDAQ, and helped an Australian startup operationalize delivery to secure deployment with a major telecom and sports league.”

“Backend engineer from Palantir who built and productionized an enterprise LLM-based document intelligence/search platform, evolving it into a hybrid lexical+vector retrieval system. Emphasizes reliability and cost control via strict LLM gating, robust fallback paths, and evaluation frameworks (e.g., MMLU/BLEU), plus disciplined migration practices (feature flags, dual-writes, shadow reads) to ship changes safely at scale.”

“Built an AI journaling app at HackCU 2025 featuring a speaking AI avatar with long-term memory via RAG (ChromaDB) and low-latency microservices coordinated through Kafka, including deployment under AMD/non-CUDA constraints using a quantized Llama 8B model. Also has Goldman Sachs experience deploying a Trade UI on Kubernetes with CI/CD rollback automation, plus a healthcare AI internship at CU Anschutz collaborating closely with physicians on diagnostic reasoning and dataset annotation.”

“Software engineer with experience delivering customer-facing and internal tools across GE Renewables, GE Healthcare (supply chain/production systems), and a Boulder-based event app startup. Recently focused on scaling backend performance using Redis and RabbitMQ, and has hands-on experience resolving hard-to-reproduce production issues in legacy authentication/session systems; also deployed a personal project (Journal Buddy) publicly.”

“Backend/data engineer who reports building production Python services (FastAPI + JWT) backed by Postgres and Redis, and modernizing data workflows using AWS Glue + PySpark with S3/RDS. States experience delivering AWS solutions (S3, SES, Cognito) and using golden datasets/snapshot testing for migration parity, with many details withheld due to NDAs. Seeking fully remote work with a $300k base salary expectation.”

“Built and deployed a scalable, production-ready LLM knowledge assistant using a RAG architecture (LangChain + vector store/FAISS) to replace keyword search for internal documents. Demonstrates hands-on expertise in hallucination reduction and retrieval quality improvements through semantic chunking, similarity tuning, prompt design, and human-in-the-loop validation, plus strong stakeholder communication via demos and visual explanations.”

“Full-stack engineer focused on data-heavy platforms, building Spring Boot microservices and Angular/React dashboards end-to-end. Has hands-on experience improving large-scale API and UI performance (including cutting 8–10s response times) and ensuring cross-service consistency using Kafka, idempotent consumers, and strong validation/transaction patterns on AWS with CI/CD and observability (Prometheus/ELK).”
