I've spent the last decade developing custom software solutions to solve business problems. I've worked for billion-dollar enterprises delivering software for consumer electronics. I've led a team of developers to modernize systems to make them more maintainable and quicker to iterate. I've introduced best practices such as source control, continuous integration, code reviews, and testing to improve workflow and reliability.
I can help your company develop custom software specifically designed for your needs. I also provide services to smaller businesses that can't justify a full-time architect where I will come in as needed and help architect a system or diagnose the reliability of existing systems while providing suggestions on how to improve.
SEEKING WORK Software engineer focused in the Python/Django ecosystem. I've designed, maintained, and supported mission-critical applications and services for clients including Cisco, Eli Lilly, NIH, Stanford School of Medicine, as well as several startups and federal agencies.

I help non-technical founders build and launch technical startups, going from idea to published MVP within 4 weeks, for less than $10K.
Imagine, one month from now you could already be building your user base. Guaranteed. If we can't identify an MVP we can build and launch within four weeks, we'll refund our fees.
Over the last ten years, I've helped validate, design, and develop over 25 products across app stores and the web. In that time, I've worked with Fortune 500s as a consultant at Google, with venture-backed startups as a partner at Gradient, and with founders of all types as owner and project lead at SANE Digital.

Senior systems administrator and software/network architect.
Looking for back-end clojure/(java) maintenance and development, specifically, reducing cloud footprints by e.g. migrating parts to open-source equivalents or even bare-metal postgres.
The cloud is a great way to start deploying quickly, but it can imply "buying off" some technical debt. With runways no doubt significantly shortened these days, this might be a good time to have that technical debt dealt with (and save good money on the side).
- Rates: 14 Euro/hour (yes, really)
- unix/linux or cloud only
- small teams or startups strongly preferred
- no advertising, sorry
Feel free to contact me, even if you're unsure if moving away from the cloud is the right thing for you. My email is in my profile.
