Junior Software Engineer specializing in LLM agents and FinTech platforms

Raleigh, NC1y exp

“AI/LLM engineer with Fidelity Investments experience who built and shipped a production GraphRAG system that augmented prompts with codebase context, improving business analyst efficiency by 15% and saving ~$3.5M annually. Strong in AWS EKS/Kubernetes/Helm and enterprise IAM/OIDC patterns (including cross-account S3 access), with experience mentoring interns and collaborating with non-technical leaders to extend AI pipelines (e.g., adding SQL functionality during MVP).”

“Automotive embedded product leader (player-coach/product-functional engineering) who helped ship a cybersecurity gateway ECU into production, owning architecture decisions, critical module reviews, and delivery. Demonstrated hands-on security/diagnostics expertise (ADA, RSA) and production defect ownership, plus experience tailoring quality-gate processes to speed variant delivery without sacrificing quality.”

“Software engineer with strong full-stack and platform experience (TypeScript/React/Node.js) who has built real-time analytics dashboards and microservices using RabbitMQ. Demonstrates production-minded decision-making under launch pressure (manual fallback for payment-impacting third-party API issues) and has delivered internal DevOps tooling that automates compliance checks via GitHub/Jira integrations.”

“Robotics software engineer focused on ROS 2 localization/SLAM: built a particle-filter (Monte Carlo) localization system in Python with likelihood-field modeling to handle noisy LiDAR and dynamic environments. Strong in debugging ROS 2 integration issues (tf2 frame sync, DDS/QoS message reliability) and in profiling/optimizing pipelines to reach real-time performance (~10 Hz) using precomputation and KD-trees.”

“Frontend-focused engineer who built a reusable React component library (documented in Storybook) to standardize and speed up UI development across teams at Ikea, including a configurable, high-performance order list component. Also demonstrated end-to-end ownership in an unstructured environment at First Citizens Bank by defining API contracts and delivering backend services with caching and monitoring.”

“Infrastructure/DevOps engineer (Vidmob) focused on AWS + containers, owning GitLab CI/CD and Terraform-managed environments. Led a high-impact CI incident by correlating runner queue time, Docker pull latency, and NAT egress; implemented ECR pull-through caching and VPC endpoints to restore performance and then standardized the fix in Terraform for future scale-ups.”
