Location: SF, experienced with and fully equipped to work remotely

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Not at this time

Technologies/Skills: Certified Scrum Master, Scrum & Kanban Methodologies, Multi-team Coordination, Jira, Python, Containerization, Cloud Infrastructure, Blockchain

I recently moved to SF with my wife (sponsorship NOT required). I'm primarily a Technical Project Manager looking to help teams build software more efficiently. I'm looking to move into a Technical Program Manager or Technical Product Manager role.

I have worn many hats having worked for startups and small companies. I started off building support workflows, tooling, and documentation for an emerging telecom product. I moved into DevOps and infrastructure after that. And in the past couple of years earned my Scrum Master certificate and took on Project and Product Management roles. Have a look at jonpurdy.com/work to see some of the projects I've built or worked on.

Aside from my technical skills, I have a deep understanding of the product development pipeline and SDLC, balancing stakeholder requests with what is technically feasible, and gathering user feedback to improve products over time. Thanks to my education background, I can bridge technical and non-technical teams, help team members improve and achieve their career goals, and communicate succinctly and unambiguously.

Ideally, I'm looking for a SF Bay Area-based startup that has built (or is close to completing) an MVP and is looking to scale the development team's size and efficiency, technical infrastructure, and product documentation. I'm also looking at working on teams at unicorns or FAANG companies that have already established products and workflows but want to improve cross-functional communication and work more efficiently with other teams.

Thanks and please email me if you have any questions or just want to chat!

I work as a contractor as a full stack engineer but am also open to discussing other opportunities. I have 3+ years of experience since graduating from Stanford. I have also built 2 YC company's products for 2 YC Demo Days: one healthcare (raised >7 figures S2019), one in crypto (about to launch W2020). I'm a full stack engineer but I specialize in Ethereum smart contracts (and servers required to interact with them) and mobile development. My focus is on building early stage startups and iterating.

GitHub: https://github.com/nuclearfej

Recently graduated from the Stevens Institute of Technology in NJ, right next to NYC - CS bachelor's degree with a minor in philosophy. Worked with Node.js, Vue.js, and Postgres in the web ecosystem, plus a bit of PHP and React; I use Python for everyday scripting and a heavier language (C++ or Java) for larger tasks. I'm currently working with a professor on writing a mobile (responsive) version of an existing web app and fixing legacy PHP code.

Always excited to try new languages, frameworks, methodologies - you name it. I love to learn new things and branch out.

Serious recruiters also welcomed.

I am a citizen of the US.

Hello! My name is Pramod, and I'm a software engineer with 3 years of experience making production-level web applications, both as an individual contributor and a technical lead.

I love building software, and I have experience shipping features and providing technical solutions in startup and consulting environments. I'm a "T-shaped" full-stack engineer; I enjoy working across the full stack, but my expertise currently lies in the front-end with JavaScript, React and Vue.

Please feel free to reach out if you're looking for an experienced full-stack or front-end developer with leadership experience to help build your product. Thanks for your time!
