I'm looking for a full time Senior Software Engineer role, either as a team lead or an individual contributor. I've been working fully remotely for many years.
I have 25 years of software development experience working with a variety of industries and technologies. I've led teams and mentored engineers. I've filed patents. I've taken a startup to a successful exit. I've founded my own bootstrapped startup. Imagine what I could do for you!
Remote: Open to remote, hybrid, and in person
Willing to relocate: Yes
Technologies: C, C++, Fortran, Java, Message Passing Interface (MPI), Python (Matplotlib, Numpy, Pandas, Scipy), SQL (especially SQLite)
Résumé/CV: Available upon request

Hi, I'm Andrew Trettel. I'm a scientist with a PhD in mechanical engineering looking for any potential opportunities outside of academia and research labs. I have over a decade of experience in scientific research, especially on the numerical side. I have years of experience in writing software for and running large simulations on high-performance computing (HPC) systems. I have also developed software for non-scientific purposes, like creating user interfaces for desktop applications. I have years of experience working with large datasets, including the tasks of calculating statistics and developing hypotheses/models/theories from data. I've worn many hats over the years and love learning new and interesting topics.
I'm a customer-facing technical leader with 10+ years in tech and a track record of building customer experience functions from scratch. Most recently, I was the first customer-facing hire at Pythagora (YC W24), a startup building an AI software engineer. I owned everything outside of engineering: support, developer relations / developer advocate, docs, YouTube demos, influencer outreach, blog posts, and building + open-sourcing demo apps.
Before that, I was the first remote hire at Streak (YC S11) and spent several years owning customer onboarding, support, and automation. I also learned to code on the side, eventually completing the Capstone program at Launch School.
I’m especially strong in early-stage chaos, where startups need someone who can do a bit of everything, talk to users, squash bugs, clean up docs, spin up demo apps, handle a support queue, write content, and generally make the founders’ lives easier.
I’m looking for a startup where I can either be the first customer engineer or support leader, or join a small team as a DevRel/Community Engineer and help ship content + build trust with technical users.
What I’m best at:
* Translating user feedback into roadmap clarity
* Turning vague “customer needs” into structured, scalable systems
* Writing fast, clear docs + building content users actually read
* Jumping into startup Discords and building real community
* Owning support and success systems without needing hand-holding

I’m a software engineer with 3 years in ADAS software (Bosch) and recent experience in robotics, perception, and AI/ML research.
I’ve built real-time C++/Python tools for autonomous driving systems, worked on SLAM-based navigation using ROS, and recently dove into information-theoretic deep learning research at NC State (incl. mutual information estimation and representation learning). I've also contributed to open-source LLM tools (SGLang) and am currently exploring agent-based systems.
Looking to join a high-impact team working on autonomy, robotics, embedded ML, or intelligent agents. I'm based in SF, available immediately, and eager to move fast.
Let’s talk if you’re building in this space!
Roles held: product, growth, security, QA, mentor, tech lead. Also a hobbyist game dev w/ associated skill sets.
Soft skills: gregarious, business-oriented, technical liaison
Open to all work.

I bring your solutions to life.
An Engineer of many hats, I solve your problems and bring them into the world. I’ve built entire systems from the ground up, delivered physical products in a matter of weeks, and kept Oil Rigs working offshore, built departments filled with the best people to produce top results and make the wonderful dreams reality.
With a background in Electro Mechanical Engineering, I’ve designed products for the consumer, offshore, military markets, so I know what good hardware looks like. I’ve built prototypes for many markets, and architected complex systems from concept to retirement, in a complete cradle to grave manner. I’ve worked closely with software teams to guide development of new features to protect marine vessels from GPS jamming, developed APIs for integration and dug through code by hand to reverse engineer old products that haven’t been touched in decades to determine their operation and how they will be supported and upgraded to turn them into the feature they should be.
As an Engineering Manager, I’ve been the driving force behind teams. I build teams based on two key ideas - is the team one full of individuals that are valued for their expertise, and is the culture one that I would like to be a part of? I make it a matter of pride that everyone should feel like an integral part of the team, and that mentality comes from the top down. I’ve worked with remotely distributed teams across many different disciplines, all working towards the end goal without ego getting in the way. My job has always been simple as the EM, give the team the tools and trust they need to do their absolute best.
Your idea is your baby, it’s precious to you. I’ve worked at startups, small companies and mega corporations and I’ve always maintained a very simple philosophy when it comes to work - “are we doing what the customer needs with the best people we can get?”
I’m your mechanical engineer, engineering manager, product manager, systems engineer, R&D specialist, market analyst and head of technology in one, and I’m ready to make your dream the product it needs to be, hardware or software.

As a co-founder (as well as my prior years), I wore many hats and spent countless hours as a result I can architect and design large codebases, hire and retain talent, lead and manage teams and set company-wide goals. I built and managed an engineering team located all around the globe and built a platform empowering small and medium businesses to run their operations; the company is entering a new phase of growth and it is the right time for me to find opportunities that aligns with my personal goals.
I am looking for a role at an established company. The bigger the problem, the more exciting. A perfect role for my profile may be one that blends my experience of building a successful B2B2C startup (building teams, product and software) and my experience of building B2B tools at a large company (Twitter).
If you need someone that can be an immediate value-add, bringing a ton of firepower, solving big problems and rallying teams to move mountains: hit me up!

Very competitive pricing available for fast turnaround PHP / JS or Node projects.

* Vector databases
* Electron desktop applications
* Realtime/websocket applications with either PHP or node
* React/Inertia or Livewire on the frontend
If you have a crazy idea and want to see if it is viable then let me build out the MVP for you, if you are worried about budget then lets figure out together how to scope it to make it affordable to you.
Or perhaps you have a messy PHP codebase from 10 years ago, let me think about how to refactor it for you.
Or perhaps something else entirely!

Hi! I’m Melissa, a software engineer with a front-end focus and 4 years of professional experience. I have experience in most stages of a product’s lifecycle, including software engineering, customer research, product design, and product analytics.
I’m aiming for a full-time software developer position for my next role, but I’m open to contract and part-time roles as well, depending on the project. I thrive in environments with a strong engineering culture that fosters initiative, ownership, collaboration, and transparent communication.
If your team needs a positive, multi-faceted contributor who can get things done, let’s have a zoom call! I can bring a ton of value to your team, and I’d love to learn all about the problems you’re working to solve.

I’ve spent much of my career freelancing with startups and companies across the EU and US—adapting to different teams, products, and challenges.
My focus in recent years has been streamlining design functions, improving design-to-code workflows, and bringing more structure into UI systems.
Lately I’ve been deepening my practice in accessibility (WCAG, EAA, ARIA), design engineering, and AI-enhanced workflows.
I work best in environments that value autonomy, thoughtful collaboration, and async-friendly rhythms. If you're building a product and need someone who can help bring clarity, structure, and scalable design thinking—I’d love to connect.
