Vetted Software Engineers in the NYC Metro

“Front-end engineer who has independently built sophisticated browser UIs in regulated and high-visibility environments, including an FDA-related medical research dashboard with AI-powered document search and a large-scale animated event site for Prologis. Stands out for combining deep browser performance expertise with strong UX instincts for expert users working with complex, data-heavy workflows.”

“Backend engineer focused on real-time, event-driven distributed systems (Node.js/TypeScript) with strict latency and reliability requirements. Deep hands-on experience debugging concurrency issues and designing resilient workflows (idempotency, circuit breakers, compensating actions) with strong observability; familiar with ROS/ROS2 concepts and confident ramping into robotics integrations.”

“Backend/AI engineer who built production-grade intelligence systems in high-stakes domains including tax/legal document analysis and brain tumor MRI workflows. Stands out for combining LLM/RAG product delivery with strong engineering rigor around retrieval evaluation, grounding, validation, observability, and safe fallbacks—turning impressive demos into systems users could actually trust.”

“Built a production ad-spend optimization system that combined deterministic audit logic with LLM-generated explanations, surfacing severe inefficiencies including 70-90% wasted spend in some Google Ads accounts. Stands out for pairing measurable business impact with pragmatic AI safety and usability decisions, including approval-gated execution and structured, human-readable recommendations.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer who discusses building production React features integrated with backend APIs, Redux, and Algolia search. Shows strong awareness of maintainability and release safety through TypeScript modeling, feature flags, Sidekiq for async processing, and post-launch monitoring of traffic and pod memory.”

“FinTech engineer who has owned customer-facing onboarding deployments end-to-end, combining React/Node.js application development with workflow automation and post-launch operational metrics. They also implemented an LLM-driven onboarding assistant using contextual prompts and backend orchestration, and showed practical production experience debugging non-deterministic AI behavior caused by stale pipeline context.”

“AI/backend engineer who independently built and operated an agentic telecom analytics system end-to-end, using LangGraph and Claude to turn natural language into safe SQL in a regulated environment. He combines startup-speed execution with compliance-minded rigor, citing 95%+ NL-to-SQL accuracy, a 30-minute-to-2-minute workflow improvement, and zero-findings support across three regulatory audit cycles.”
