@matthewfrancisco1
Senior Full Stack & AI Engineer building scalable, data-driven products with measurable business impact.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software & AI Engineer with 10+ years of experience building scalable systems and data-driven solutions. I focus on backend development, machine learning pipelines, and data engineering, with a strong emphasis on performance optimization, automation, and business impact. I’ve deployed AI models into production, including RAG-based systems that improve response accuracy, latency, and user experience.
On the engineering side, I design and automate end-to-end ETL pipelines with Python, SQL, and Airflow, and build data models for scalable analytics. I’ve modernized 10+ legacy systems by migrating to cloud platforms like Azure, Snowflake, and BigQuery, improving scalability and reducing infrastructure costs. I also optimize SQL and stored procedures to drive near real-time BI and measurable execution-time reductions.
As a full-stack builder, I develop high-converting Shopify Plus themes and manage WordPress themes/plugins with security, performance, and usability in mind. I collaborate with UI/UX designers to turn Figma and Adobe XD into pixel-perfect, responsive experiences—and I integrate third-party apps and APIs to extend platform capabilities. I’ve also mentored teams of 3–5 engineers and help define AI/data strategy roadmaps and KPIs with executives.
