AI/ML Systems Engineer specializing in high-performance deployments. Most recently I've built RL environments for frontier labs like OpenAI and Google DeepMind. Previously I've built distributed AI classifier systems handling 30K QPS, developed a neural network for Rocket League gameplay, and created platforms that cut model deployment time from 6 months to 6 hours. Saved $500K/yr in infrastructure costs through optimization at previous role. Former technical founder with experience in humanoid robotics and AI writing assistance. I write about my projects and musings on my Substack: https://thelisowe.substack.com/

Seeking roles focusing on ML infrastructure, model optimization, post-training, or full-stack AI/ML systems engineering.

Location: Paris / Fontainebleau, France.

Remote: Yes.

Willing to relocate: No.

Technologies: Typescript / React / Node.js / Bun / TouchDesigner / Cables.gl / Figma (Plugin API) / AI Frameworks / Node based programming / Creative technologies (immersive installations, hardware, generative art, you name it...)

About me: I'm a creative technologist working two distinct sides: AI tools and automation for teams (davidpettersson.com), and generative, immersive art (somaticbits.com). Different audiences, same instinct: prototype fast, make the abstract real.

I work with things like generative AI, real-time rendering, and intelligent interfaces. My strength is fast, functional prototyping: exploring, testing, and building quickly. My background is in software engineering, creative coding, and visual design, and I've worked with startups, agencies, and artists to turn experimental ideas into real products.

What I do:

• Build prototypes using LLMs and generative models

• Add AI to creative workflows and tools

• Create immersive installations and generative art

• Design systems that mix code, and play

• Work closely with teams to guide tech direction and try new ideas

I'm open to roles, consulting, or collaborations on projects that use AI to build new kinds of tools or experiences. If you're working on something bold or experimental, feel free to reach out.

Location: Istanbul, Türkiye (relocating to Guildford, UK in Sept 2026) Remote: Yes — full EU overlap; US-East evenings (UTC+3, moving to UTC+0) Willing to relocate: No Technologies: TypeScript, Node.js, NestJS, Fastify, Next.js, React, React Native/Expo, PostgreSQL/Prisma, Redis/BullMQ, Claude API, RAG, tool-calling/MCP, pgvector, Playwright Résumé/CV: https://github.com/denizcakiroglu322 Email: denizcakiroglu322@gmail.com

Full-stack engineer specializing in production LLM systems, looking for part-time contract work (~20 hrs/week). Recent shipped work: an AI agent over a steel-trading company's ERP — RAG + tool-calling into live SQL via a custom TypeScript MCP server, structured outputs with eval/failure handling, used daily by operations staff. Also Rankoo, a multi-tenant SEO automation SaaS (Fastify + Postgres/Prisma, BullMQ/Playwright workers, Claude API with prompt caching), and NavliQ, a deployed NestJS freight marketplace (public code: github.com/denizcakiroglu322/navliq-backend).

I judge well on what to hand an LLM vs. what to keep deterministic. Happy to do paid trial tasks — I'd rather be evaluated on work than CV.

Senior software engineer, 17 years and 250+ projects shipped, solo and on senior teams. I built a Barclays/Bain-backed fintech MVP in 3 weeks at GigEasy, took a live-broadcast SaaS API from 3s to 300ms (10x faster) at Cuez, and integrated 40+ payment providers at bolttech, a $1B+ insurtech unicorn. I work end to end across TypeScript/React/Next.js and PHP/Laravel/NestJS, and lately I've been shipping LLM features (OpenAI, Claude, MCP) into real products. Open to senior IC, tech lead, or fractional CTO work.

Location: Lola, TX Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: No Technologies: Python, Go, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, AWS (Terraform, ECS, Lambda), React, Distributed Systems, Agentic Workflows.

Résumé/CV: linkedin.com/in/fairbanksjustin Email: fairbanksjustin39@gmail.com

Short Pitch: Senior Full Stack Engineer with 13+ years of experience building and scaling high-performance, distributed systems.

I specialize in the "hard" problems: distributed system design, high-performance database infrastructure, and building production-ready AI/Agentic workflows. I have a founder-level ownership mentality, extensive experience with end-to-end full-stack ownership, and a track record of transforming "duct-taped" legacy systems into resilient, modern production environments.

I am looking for a remote, mission-driven role where engineering velocity and architectural integrity are top priorities. Particularly interested in domains like energy grid simulation, financial infrastructure, and the agentic web.

High-agency Principal Data Engineer / Founding Architect with $13$ years of experience designing, scaling, and taking complete ownership of high-throughput data platforms in complex, high-stakes environments (biotech R&D and global development).

What I do:

Zero-to-One Architectures: Design and scale robust lakehouse infrastructures (Databricks, Delta Lake, Snowflake, BigQuery) that transform highly fragmented, multi-source raw streams into clean, reliable analytical surfaces.

Defending Data Integrity: Implement automated, self-healing "trust gates" using Great Expectations and schema-validation pipelines to catch and quarantine malformed records at ingestion, guaranteeing $100\%$ downstream data integrity.

Performance & Cloud Optimization: Re-engineer legacy batch workloads into optimized, containerized DAGs (Airflow, PySpark, Terraform), cutting processing latency by up to $65\%$ and reducing cloud compute overhead by $25\%$.

Engineering Posture & Mentorship: Led and mentored high-performing engineering teams of $12+$, establishing modern DataOps and SRE monitoring postures (Prometheus/Grafana) that cut incident response times by $60\%$.

Previously: Principal Data Engineer at GSK (R&D Analytics), Senior Data Engineer at The World Bank (won the Technology Excellence Award in 2020).

I am looking for Founding Engineer, Principal Data/Platform Engineer, or Technical Architect roles in high-trust, high-agency environments where system design and engineering directly drive business strategy. Feel free to reach out!

Full stack web dev here with a bias towards the backend. On my own time I prefer to use python for web work and GDScript/Godot for game dev, but I'm a big proponent of using the right tools for the job. I'm good at turning domain knowledge into software and quickly getting up to speed on preexisting code bases. Ideally looking for a role doing something socially conscious.

* At my last job I led a team and helped build a Windows desktop app that pulled data from native node modules and added overlays to games. I used Electron, Node, Typescript, React, and Redux to build it, AWS for CI/deployments, and finally TrackJS and Sentry for logging/monitoring. I also started learning Rust from working with other engineers on the native node modules.
