SEEKING WORK - Remote. I'm Spanish and based in Barcelona, but I'm fluent in English.
I'm kind of a jack-of-all-trades. I can design and fully develop any web app using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP & MySQL.
I have plenty of experience working on sites with millions of pageviews a month, and love building products from scratch. I'm specially looking for short term projects. If you don't have the time or skills to build a minimum viable product, I'm your guy. Contact me at manuelflara@gmail.com
We are Gerger (www.gerger.co), the creators of Formspider (www.theformspider.com), the Web 2.0 framework for Oracle PL/SQL developers. We are preparing a new version of our product and we would like to renew our product web site www.theformspider.com along with it.
Our product Formspider is for a specific group of developers namely, the Oracle PL/SQL developers. It's mainly used in mid to large size companies to build Budgeting, Accounting, Order Management, HR, ERP etc.. software.
Current Web site was done by us a year and a half ago. It's nice but building web sites is not our focus. The site is also showing its age.
Formspider impresses our users with its simple and elegant design. It is perceived as an unusually high quality, very innovative product built with care and attention to detail. We would like our new web site reflect these facts.
We want a simple yet beautiful design in our web site. Readable large fonts, excellent copyright, gorgeous pictures, icons and screen shots should provide a enjoyable experience to the visitor. We don't want run of the mill, stock photos, icons and text anywhere on the site. Each page needs to be individually crafted and be of excellent quality.
The entire goal of the web site is to reflect the high quality of our product.
Our favorite product, company web sites are www.apple.com (you should have seen this coming at this point :-) ) and http://www.fogcreek.com/fogbugz/
We've been struggling to find a freelancer or a team that can get this done. I thought of asking you on HN hoping that you can help.
Our background is PL/SQL and Oracle Forms. We were annoyed with the way web applications are supposed to be built nowadays. We wanted to build the Forms for the 21st century, and Formspider is just that. It is an intuitive, elegant framework that just feels right to build applications with. A framework that empowers you, eliminates all the drudgery of the Web but embraces all its beauty. Once you start using it, you will never want to build with anything else.
NB: I just removed one extra word, changed "build" to "built" in one instance, and combined a sentence. I didn't do a full re-write.
Lots of experience with Java and its enterprise stuff. I've been doing more Rails and mobile (iOS/Android) stuff lately, and I'm particularly interested in taking on more projects in that arena.
SEEKING WORK - NYC or remote.
I am a mobile developer who focuses on Android Java development. I have worked on multiple Android apps, both large and small, for a variety of clients. My portfolio and Github are listed below:
Basically none. Before I added/changed maybe 50 lines very recently to reflect a significant change in the data model and UX, I had pretty much never touched our JavaScript.
My co-founders Mike (http://lazerwalker.com) and Ricky (http://rmondello.com) collaborated pretty closely on most of the JS. Usage of .on appears to have been introduced by Ricky in January.
SEEKING WORK (USA|Remote|Puerto Rico) [Will travel] [American Citizen]
I ship software.
Engineer with three years of professional experience building and shipping software is currently accepting work offers.
Some engineers might focus on other things, but my focus is on getting your software ready as quickly as possible. Why? Because your business depends on it. Any day that you lose with a slow engineer is a day that you don't profit.
My rates are affordable. Other engineers will charge between $400 to $700 per day. Not me. I will only charge you $200 a day. Why are my rates so low? Because I don't have any overhead, and pass the savings on to you. Have a long term project? Let's talk. We can work something out.
Do I have a proven track record? Yes. In fact, I'm releasing my first free open source application in the coming weeks. If you so desire, I will send you an exclusive sample of the application. Just send me an email. No strings attached. I will not spam you. Also have another two more free open source apps coming up soon.
Best of all, I'm a generalist. Be it PHP, Python, Codeigniter, Flask , MySQL, Jquery, HTML/CSS, Linux, .NET, Windows, I can deliver anything you want. Need a purchasing application to control your costs? I can build it. Need an application to A/B test your marketing? That too. Need an API to integrate your services? I will build it for you. I am also fluent in English and Spanish. Si eres una empresa que busca un ingeniero tambien puedes contactarme. No importa el lugar.
All of this, plus the fact that I'm an older, and wiser engineer. I will not play around with your project in order to try out some new technology. I only use proven and reliable methods. Agile and TDD is welcome.
But wait. This all may sound too good to be true. Fine. Go ahead. Send me an email. Let's talk about your needs. Find out for yourself if I am the real deal. You want to interview me with some technical questions? That is great. I love technical interviews. They allow me to show you how good I am.
You can contact me at any time through my email address. It is listed in my profile. I am also available on Skype.
PS. Be sure to contact me ASAP, because last time I posted an ad on HN, I had two work offers on the first day. Be the first in line to hire me.
PPS. I am also available for long-term employment if the project is interesting enough.
If you contact me and mention this ad, I will give you a free one hour consultation. No need to pay any consulting fees (a $100 value). Just mention the ad, and we can schedule a consultation. There you can tell me all of your needs and wants, and I can give you some great ideas on how to acquire them. This is a $100 value free as a gift from me to you. Hurry, because I can only schedule a small and exclusive amount of free consultations.
Freelance developer based in the Brighton in the UK. I can travel to London but I usually prefer to work remotely as I have a very nice desk in a co-working place 5 minutes from my house :)
Languages are mainly Python and JavaScript (client and server side) but happy with lots of others when they are needed (I love a bit of Haskell, although rarely get paid to use it!). Experience with Django, Node.JS, Backbone.JS, SciPy, OpenCV.
One of the things I enjoy doing is RESTful API design, here's a talk I gave to a local JavaScript talk about that recently (scroll down for the slides):
Location: Columbia, Missouri (or Remote)
Who we are
DocumentCloud (http://www.documentcloud.org/home ) is a web based platform allowing journalists to upload, analyze, annotate, and publish primary source documents. We want give journalists the tools to show their audience their source material, not just tell them about it. In addition to the newsrooms worldwide who use DocumentCloud, our open source software projects (see: http://github.com/documentcloud ), such as Backbone.js, Underscore.js, Docsplit, and Jammit, are relied upon by companies such as LinkedIn, Walmart, Foursquare and more. DocumentCloud is run by Investigative Reporters & Editors (http://ire.org ).
DocumentCloud is looking for a freelancer who has experience working with solr and the JVM to assist us with scaling up our search index prior to DocumentCloud going international.
If you've got experience working with full text search indexes with millions of records (and possibly heavy duty faceting) please drop us a line at: jobs@documentcloud.org
I'm looking for a number of people who are interested in freelance work in (primarily) Javascript. Remote is fine, prefer full time (or close) availability and some overlap with US Eastern time would help.
The development will be using our API and the Google Closure library (experience not required). A strong background in JS/HTML/CSS is needed.
There are a large number of projects available and they require little coordination, so they are pretty ideal for remote freelancing.
Contact me at lwalker at monetate if you're interested or have any questions.
SEEKING WORK - Remote/StLouis/or I can temporarily relocate
Frontend/UX/ProductDesign/PHP
I'm a hacker+hustler+designer, based in St. Louis. I am obsessed with startups and user experience. Looking for a freelance gig to get me thru the summer.
I've been lead frontend developer on over 50 projects, and am very experienced building custom websites using WordPress as a platform. Also I was 2-time finalist in our local startup incubator, and applied to YC Spring 2011.
Love to talk about how to bring your product to the next level!
Poland, Gdansk based team of mobile developers. We specialize in Android and IOS development, we implement backend solutions in Java, .NET, PHP and Ruby on Rails. More than 7 years experience in the industry.
Check our website: www.bright-inventions.com and ask for quote. We are looking for a long term partnership.
I'm in Canada and your site is very slow to load (over a minute). It is also very tricky to scroll vertically on an iPhone, it wants to scroll sideways instead. Just FYI.
Slow for me in NYC as well, just FYI. Also, 4.5 MB is quite large to show the first page. Amazon is 1.9 MB, and Pinterest actually comes in at under a MB by comparison.
Seeking Work (Remote). We built http://whisper.sh (website, iOS app, Server). We've built iOS apps for MTV, VH1, and others. I don't do a lot of business development; I just get on HN when we're done with a project.
Our team is small and we typically have one big project at a time. Specialties are a) iOS, b) Rails, c) Erlang.
Experience working at all levels of the stack, extremely proficient in Rails development, Node.js, and frontend development. Have written lots of PHP in a past life, but haven't touched it in a few years. Mostly spending my days doing iOS development for my own projects. Feel reasonably good about my iOS skills, but my strengths are definitely in web programming.
Places I've spent time either managing engineers or shipping code: Basis (www.basis.com), Singly (www.singly.com), Rupture/EA (ea.com). Projects I've built either on my own, or with friends: WAYWN (www.waywn.com) & Lifetracker (www.lifetrckr.com).
Contact info is in my profile. Have about 20-30 hours / week of availability currently.
We are developers with deep expertise in technology and have developed many award winning apps and solutions for individuals as well as F500 companies. info@newgenapps.com
Whatever web-work you need done (not programming) and you are too lazy to do or don't have the time. Email me the task and what you are willing to pay. No minimum. My email is in my profile. Cheers,
We're looking for a programmer with experience in RFID to integrate the data collected by various UHF RFID hardware readers into a user interface on the iPad. Knowledge of RFID is obviously a huge bonus.
This job is not just for someone looking to follow precise instructions on code requirements - we're looking for someone to consult with us and guide us through the most efficient path to the goal of the product, as well as executing the development.
Our company is an innovative start-up with plenty of traction. We're revolutionizing inventory management for the jewelry industry, where a single lost product, smaller than your pinky nail, can costs thousands and thousands of dollars.
To the right candidate this project is the first of many. We would like to grow with a skilled outside contractor for many of our upcoming projects.
