Vetted Software Engineers

“Backend/data engineer with production experience at Uber building a near real-time driver rewards service on AWS (FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis) with strong reliability and concurrency controls. Also delivered AWS Lambda/ECS containerized deployments with GitHub Actions CI/CD and cost governance, built AWS Glue ETL with schema-evolution handling, and drove a ~10x SQL performance improvement while owning incident response via CloudWatch.”

“Software engineer focused on personalization and data/ML infrastructure who built a GenAI/LLM-driven carousel ranking system end-to-end, delivering a reported 6–7% order-rate lift. Also designed large-scale personalization ETL (15PB for ~100M users) and created a custom Airflow operator to integrate with Databricks under enterprise version constraints, with hands-on on-call and data-quality reliability improvements.”

“Player-coach engineer/leader with experience at Twist Bioscience and Series B startup Vida Health, owning high-impact platform work across frontend and backend. Delivered a large-scale permissions migration to Okta affecting ~100,000 users and led reliability/process improvements (weekly releases, dedicated QA/dev environments, incident response with RCA) in high-growth environments.”

“Backend/cloud engineer with deep Azure and distributed-systems experience: owned an end-to-end Python multi-orchestrator config generator (Contrail) spanning OpenStack/vCenter/OpenShift/Kubernetes via a translation-layer approach. Built GitOps-style ARM-template infrastructure and CI/CD with automated testing, including a zero-downtime Databricks-to-Synapse migration using parallel production validation. Worked on Microsoft Azure Identity gateway (reverse proxy for auth) and executed ring-based deployments for major platform migration.”

“Engineering leader with experience across MSCI (Index business), Microsoft Teams (callings/meetings), and MSN Weather. Has led business-aligned roadmaps, scaled orgs (including an ~80-person Teams org during COVID demand surge), and delivered Azure-based, multi-region architectures achieving ~2000 RPS and 99.9% availability with improved RTO/RPO.”
