I'm a programmer, most familiar with C on Linux (both userland and the kernel) and Win32. I'll be happy to start a project from scratch, or to help support any old codebase. For a sample of my work please see rdrview [1], a small command line tool that found some success here on Hacker News; or [2], a naive filesystem implementation I've been working on.

My rate is 20 USD/hour, and I don't expect to be paid until I have something to deliver. For what it's worth, I have a background in math.

I'm a product lead who specializes in Clojure/Script development. I quickly and independently develop quality software that will meet your business needs.

Recent work: - Created https://github.com/deckeraa/pouchdb-fx, a re-frame effects handler for PouchDB. (Please keep in mind that this library is very much in alpha if you decide to peruse the code :) ).

- Created a fuzz-testing tool that takes in a language grammar (EBNF) and uses that to generate syntactically correct random text in that language. During text generation it can also take in external information (such as table and column metadata for use in generated SQL queries) to create random text that is contextually correct as well. Currently used for testing SQL databases.

- Built https://familymemorystream.com, a video-hosting and sharing site for family videos. (Tech: Reagent, Clojure/Script, S3, CouchDB, Stripe)

- Created the https://github.com/deckeraa/couchdb-auth-for-ring/ open-source library that enables you to use CouchDB as an authentication back-end for Ring apps.

- Led a team of ~17 software developers for the business intelligence module of a large healthcare IT company.

Buzzwords: Clojure, Clojurescript, Javascript, C#, Java, MUMPS, Bash, SQL, CouchDB, GraphQL, S3, Python

You—: You need a web app that looks beautiful. You want prospective customers to interact with your product and you want them to feel that visceral feeling that you feel when you interact with an Apple product or something of similar quality. That feeling will compel them to purchase your thing and it is easily worth hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to you over the next two or three years. (Perhaps you've noticed how terrible the recent YouTube redesign is. If I were in charge of that operation I would fire everyone involved. No mercy.)

No management, project or otherwise. Direct engagements with execs only. Thanks.

From 2005 until 2015 I ran my own development company. Since 2015 I’ve been using that experience to help companies and development teams take ‘the next step’. The next step in delivering higher quality products, the next step in gaining higher developer velocity and the next step in being a more predictable in planning and outcome.

I strongly believe the following factors help in taking this next step: 1. Never compromise in code quality. 2. Standardize as much as possible (to prevent reinventing the wheel and focus on adding value) 3. Automate everything 4. Create a safe to fail environment.

Hi there! I do long-term consulting projects with clients primarily in Germany and the US. Drop me a line if you need someone who is a quick study, will grok your business and the big picture. Raw developer firepower included.

Sample references:

- multi-year backend dev & enterprise integration for an insuretech startup backed by Munich Re (Node.JS, Typescipt, Mongo, AWS, k8s)

- leads management platform for a contractor in TX (PHP, Laravel, HTML+CSS)

- web app for distribution of insurance documents from the agent to the customer (.NET Core, HTML+CSS)

- pan-European rollout of an eCommerce system for a cable company in EU (product management)

- Scrum Master for a Prague startup in the taxi app (kinda like Uber but with real taxis)

- my own failed SaaS startup in the requirements analysis space (something like Trello)

Industry exposure: finance, telecoms, insurance. Most of my engagements recently are centered around helping Fortune 500-sized companies navigate the new digital landscape.

Availability: prefer flat-price projects with fixed scope. You can be located anywhere but some timezone overlap is desirable.

Working mode: remote, happy to meet for the initial kick-off and planning when travel is possible again.

(Please mention that you found my profile on Hacker News)

I do resume work. Most of my clients seem to come from Hacker News and tend to be tech professionals with a lot of experience who are struggling to keep their information-dense resume easily digestible.

I do some editing and do a write up of the kinds of changes I made and why and try to help clients up their game because I know resumes need to be rewritten and customized for each position. It's not "one and done," so this is kind of like resume coaching.

I work 100 percent remote. I typically get documents via Google docs (no PDFs -- they cannot be edited), some basic information via email and I get paid up front at $50/page.
