SEEKING WORK

Location: Rhine-Ruhr, Germany / remote. I'm fine with travelling as well though.

Remote: Yes

IT consultant, web and enterprise software developer with more than 15 years of experience.

I'm experienced in JavaScript, HTML5 and many other web-related technologies. I'm a long-time Java developer and I have lots of experience with RDBMS as well, particularly PostgreSQL and Oracle DB.

In the past 3 years I've mainly been developing AngularJS applications (having started with Angular 2 recently) with Java / Spring back-ends and PostgreSQL databases. Among other things, many of these applications make of use complex data analysis and data visualization (using D3.js, NVD3, Chart.js). I help companies with the quality and knowledge transfer aspects of software development: Testing (both front-end using tools like Protractor and back-end with frameworks like JUnit and Mockito), continuous deployment, improving collaboration within teams, training developers regarding best practices and new technologies.

SEEKING WORK - Remote (from USA, currently in Europe) Offering a unique, unusual, but useful set of skills:

- Scraping: Lots of experience in creating high volume, high speed scrapers for any data source, whether on the web or in an app (after reverse engineering it).

- Reverse engineering: Experienced reverse engineering iOS apps, whether to gain insights into the protocols used, identify how an app is doing something, or review the security of your own app.

- Proxy servers: Need a custom setup of proxy servers for scraping? I can help. I have relationships with multiple data centers and can get you cheap deals on IP addresses. I can also setup custom rule-based proxies (i.e. rotate IP every minute, change IP based on header, auto-solve CAPTCHA, route through Tor, etc)

- Cloud architect: Experienced with both AWS/EC2 and Google Cloud. Especially good at setting up AWS VPC.

- parse-server: I maintain the python library for parse-server (https://github.com/milesrichardson/ParsePy), and have also setup parse-server multiple times on AWS, google cloud, and locally.

- VPN setup: Need a VPN for personal use or your business? Need a VPN to connect to your VPC? Or maybe some custom networking logic? I can help.

- fullstack dev - For the right project I am interested in fullstack development, but prefer scopes limiting development time to a few weeks.

- API integration in Python or nodejs - experience with stripe, PayPal, Amazon SES, various others.

- server setup / general sysadmin - very experienced with the most common server stacks, including Nginx, docker, redis, and others. If you need a production server setup and are feeling lost, I can help you.

Skills: Python (flask, bottle), Javascript (node, express), Bash, MySQL, Postgres, Mongo, parse-server, squidproxy, docker, redis, zeromq, html/css/basic frontend JS, nginx, haproxy, dns, iptables
