I build the systems plumbing, concurrent pipelines, and secure runtime isolation that AI coding-agent startups are racing to ship.

AutoPatch-AI: An autonomous, self-healing code remediation agent built on a LangGraph state machine. I engineered a zero-trust Docker execution layer (network_disabled=True, 256 MB RAM / 128 PID hard limits), streamed real-time telemetry over lock-free thread queues via SSE, and moved from full-file diffs to Search/Replace block patching, cutting generation overhead by ~80%. Achieved a 100% resolution rate (5/5) on a custom Micro-SWE-bench harness with an average time-to-resolution of ~205 seconds. GitHub: https://github.com/sriramvarun0636/AutoPatch-AI

SentinelPrime: A multi-threaded, regime-aware options trading system for live WebSocket market data. Built using an Actor Model architecture over daemon threads to isolate database I/O and broker API calls, with an asynchronous Token Bucket rate limiter and atomic SQLite (WAL) persistence. GitHub: https://github.com/sriramvarun0636/SentinelPrime

HydraPrime: A systematic XAUUSD trading EA in MQL5. Backtested (not live) over two years on 96M+ real ticks, achieving a 1.37 profit factor, 13.8% maximum drawdown, and 252% net return. GitHub: https://github.com/sriramvarun0636/HydraPrime

B.E Computer Science undergrad at NIT Allahabad (Class of 2027).

Looking for a founding or early-stage software engineering role on an AI-agent, developer tool, or high-performance backend systems team. Open to full-time or contract opportunities.

Willing to relocate: No

Domains: Platform Engineering, Developer Tooling, Enterprise Integration, Language Design, AI Tooling

Email: celerex.dev@gmail.com

Projects: https://polymr-platform.github.io/ | https://neatify-tech.github.io/

I am a Staff/Principal engineer with 18+ years of experience building mission-critical enterprise software across integration-heavy B2B, B2C, and IoT environments.

What sets my background apart is that I do not just build applications, I also build the underlying platforms behind them. Over the years I have built:

- Nabu: a low-code enterprise integration and web application platform with 10+ years of production use

- Glue: a custom scripting language used for automation, orchestration, and test execution at scale

- Neatify: a polyglot formatter in Rust using Tree-sitter and Rhai

- Polymr and MCP tooling: LLM agent infrastructure focused on control, orchestration, and deep tool integration

I am looking for a long-term Staff/Principal IC role focused on platform architecture, developer experience, custom tooling, orchestration systems, or applied AI infrastructure.

Technologies: Claude API, LangGraph, CrewAI, OpenAI Agents SDK, AutoGen, RAG pipelines, multi-agent orchestration, Python, FastAPI, Django, Node.js, PostgreSQL, pgvector, Next.js, React, TypeScript, Supabase, Stripe, AWS

Website: https://govindgupta.com

Email: govind@govindgupta.com

15 years as a full-stack AI engineer, including onsite engineering and team leadership for US enterprises ADP and Time Warner Cable. I ship agentic AI products in 2 to 3 weeks, not months.

What I build:

-> Multi-agent systems with LangGraph, CrewAI, OpenAI Agents SDK, and AutoGen. Tool use, handoffs, planning loops, and guardrails that hold up past the demo.

-> Production RAG pipelines with pgvector, reranking, and evaluation. Not just a notebook.

-> AI-integrated full-stack apps on Next.js, Supabase, and Stripe. From MVP to scale.

Best fit: founders building agentic AI products who need senior engineering judgment, not just code. I have led and mentored engineering teams, so I can own architecture decisions and bring the rest of your team up to speed.

Open to fixed-bid projects, ongoing contract work, or fractional technical lead engagements. Competitive rates for the quality delivered.

Backend engineer, ~2 years. Currently building a 9-service biometric verification platform end-to-end as a solo contractor — FastAPI + Postgres 16 with Fernet-encrypted PII and PgBouncer transaction pooling, an APScheduler container coordinating AWS Rekognition with two Java microservices for fingerprint and iris matching, plus a Kotlin Android client with offline-first sync. Repo pinned on my GitHub with a full architecture README.

Before this, low-latency Go services at Longshot Systems (London algo-trading firm). Joined without Go, was shipping in my second month — comfortable picking up new stacks fast.

In parallel, solo client work on Upwork: 32 jobs, 1,100+ hours, 100% Job Success Score, 5.0/5.0 rating, Rising Talent badge, repeat clients. Across Python/Go automation, MERN-stack apps, ML/CV, and JS/React. Profile: upwork.com/freelancers/~01adc60eaf87e012ae.

Email: evgenys.designer@gmail.com

Senior Product Designer | Design Engineer, 15+ years. I cover the whole design process and ship the front-end myself.

I've worked solo and in teams, at early startups and mature products, across EdTech, enterprise SaaS, fintech, healthcare, and dev tools. The work spans user research, UX and interaction, visual and brand craft, and design systems. I also write production HTML, CSS, JS, and React, so the design holds up in real code.

I can own a product end to end on my own, or slot into a team and move with it. I like early, messy problems and working close to founders and engineers.

SEEKING WORK | Data scientist consultant | Canada/Remote Worldwide

Most of what people call "data science" is now doable with an LLM and a weekend. I focus on the messy, ambiguous, regulation-heavy gnarly problems where nobody is sure what the right question is. Often it involves getting hands on to find the data and signal that's really needed.

What I've done:

   - AI verification of building and architectural BIM/CAD against 400 page ESG standards. (Days of work down to minutes)
   - Part failure prediciton, saving a German automaker from lemon law recalls. ($20M+ exposure avoided)
   - Oil & gas well and lease production forecasting. 
   - Real-time emissions detection for industrial smokestacks. ($75K fines per incident prevented)
   - Revenue optimization and persona identification for debt collections (15-20% net revenue lift)
   - LLM-based legal document extraction (land runsheet), reducing due diligence turnaround from 3 days to 30 minutes
   - Built vessel piracy risk engine that informed naval escort deployment, contributing to fewer hijackings
Things I'm unwilling to work on:

   - Gambling.
   - Ads/Surveillance.
   - Payday loans/rent-to-own.
