I'm a full stack database and content at scale expert for data driven and SEO websites. While my core tech stack is C# / ASP.net Core on SQL Server / MSSQL, I'm also a dab hand at PHP and MySQL / MariaDB, developing in both of these stacks since the late 90s in one form or another. I lean towards hosting on CentOS Linux, I'm also comfortable with Ubuntu and Windows.
I spent five years as lead developer at https://broadbandnow.com (C#, SQL Server, and whole lot of data engineering!), and recently created the backend for https://www.ami-archive.com, along with the API for its iPhone app (PHP and MariaDB to meet an explicit total low cost of ownership requirement. Lots of image metadata processing fun along the way).
My hobby projects include https://crimerate.co.uk (C# and SQL Server on Linux, GIS) and https://fairinternetreport.com (even more geospatial fun and ~800,000,000 rows of data crunched nightly).

I'm a data scientist with seven years of experience spanning both data science and data engineering. I’m available in a range of capacities, whether that’s helping to push an existing data science/ML project across the finish line or coming in and starting a new project from scratch.
I’m particularly interested in helping companies design and implement a data science strategy prior to making a first data science hire. At most top-tier startups, the management team recognizes the need to build a data science organization. But getting started on that process is difficult, and far too many startups watch their first data science hire fail to deliver results.
Success follows from articulating the objectives and needs of the data science team, and that’s where I can help. By developing goals, ensuring data infrastructure is in place, and identifying needed skills, we can set your first hire up for success and avoid costly mistakes like hiring a deep learning engineer when what you really need is someone who can make dashboards.
Technologies:
Data science: Python, Pandas, Scikit-Learn, Numpy, PySpark, Jupyter notebooks, Matplotlib Data engineering: AWS (EC2, RDS, S3, Lambda), PostgreSQL, Docker, Airflow
Previous Experience: BCG, Google (Software Engineer), 3x Startups

We are looking for JavaScript, Java, DevOps and other freelancers to work for our clients at Toughbyte in Finland.
You can find some of the current projects or make an open application here: https://tbyte.co/hnfreelance
I specialize in backend web programming using Python, Django, and PostgreSQL. On top of that, I can do a little bit of everything web-related, particularly:
- frontend (JS, jQuery, basic React)
- AWS (EC2, Elastic Beanstalk, RDS)
- Docker
- databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, Redis, Elasticsearch)
- microservice architecture (if necessary!)
- Linux administration
My experience at startups has helped me learn how to build systems, and how to keep them running, simply and with minimal resources.
My latest project is a chess training site at https://www.checkmatechamp.net/ . That site runs on the Google Cloud Platform and uses Python and PostgreSQL on the backend. The frontend is a mix of vanilla JS and OCaml (using js_of_ocaml).

ABOUT: Experienced Software Engineer & AWS Certified Solutions Architect with experience in FULL-STACK applications in React.js / TypeScript / C# / AWS / Cyber Security.
Hi there. I'm an experienced full-stack developer seeking some contract work, either one-off or ongoing.
I've built Rails apps for 12+ years (and have taught Rails at college) and am equally at home on the front-end. My most recent work is as the lead developer of an event ticket sales platform that processes millions in sales annually. I was also the lead on an aviation maintenance web app. If you work with HTML email you might also have used my Premailer project from long ago.
On the front-end I've worked with React / React Native / Redux / Typescript, including reaching the holy grail of sharing all the core logic between a mobile and web app in a single code base.
Previously I worked in tourism marketing, so I also have a strong appreciation for keeping focus on ROI and clear communication.
I haven't had much time for open source recently, but I'm happy to give you a tour of some private repos so you can see my work.

Client-side: Javascript / ES6, Typescript, React, React Native, Redux, Jest, CSS/SASS, Coffeescript, SVG, websockets, offline web apps

I've been on a sabbatical where I finished an around the world trip of visiting all seven continents of the world. I'm ready to get back to work.
Currently, working on: - react stuff for my side-project – https://randomdailyart.com. - a ton of cool automation stuff with Huginn, n8n, etc. - a video course on automation stuff. (https://howtoautomate.dev)
My dream role would be to come into an organization and help automate myself out of a job and help you save money and time. I'll be ok with a front-end role using react / typescript / etc.
I offer consulting services on design systems and component libraries. Deliverables include theory, common practice, and working examples with React and Typescript.
I have a degree in Computer Science and as a self-taught designer I have works featured in online galleries.
I've created the first design system (a living styleguide) in 2015. Since then, I help companies to understand the concept, explore its boundaries, and to roll their own.
