Hi, I'm Michael Geary. I've programmed in many languages and environments over the years. Some of my current interests are:
• Developer experience. I love helping my fellow developers solve problems, and building tools to make their jobs easier and more enjoyable.
• Aviation and geographic data. For example, airspace and obstacle data importers for Wing; election results and voter information maps for Google; many interactive maps for other companies.
• Hardware interfacing. In a way, I am a "full stack" developer, but my stack may involve a front end to a piece of hardware rather than the cloud. I first got into programming via ham radio, so RF hardware remains an interest.
• Designing and building APIs. Too often an API is designed by exposing the internals of whatever system provides the API. My philosophy is the opposite: start with the apps. I like to build a series of sample apps before starting on the API. This way I can imagine what API will make those apps and others like them easy to build.
• Talk with users! I don't like to sit in a back room cranking out code. I want to make sure it's the right code for what my users need, and that it's easy to maintain and improve as we learn more about what they want.
Open to full time or contract.
I look forward to talking with you!

I'm also spinning up a small agency — if your team needs help getting bootstrapped with the latest AI tooling (agents, automation, workflows, etc.), happy to chat about that too. We're a small team that leans heavily on AI ourselves, so we move fast and keep overhead low. Site's coming soon but we're already taking on clients.
Remote: Preferred

Expert backend developer primarily focused on data engineering, mission critical/low latency/highly available systems, and AWS (certs: https://www.credly.com/users/jon-north.ad78f0c8). Happy to deal with greenfield or legacy or any mix of the two. I learn new things extremely quickly.
I prefer long term contract work, though I’ll help you with smaller things as well. W2 employment is a possibility if the fit is right. Whatever you’re doing with AI is also fine by me, and I’ll lead/adapt as appropriate.

I'm a Senior DevOps engineer, Cloud Architect and Infrastructure Engineer.
I provide contract or ad-hoc services and support to startups, growth companies and enterprises. I'm often called to set up greenfield DevOps installations, architect and build cloud infrastructures, design platform architectures, build cloud-based, SaaS and mobile products and assist with emergency or short-staffed situations.
What makes me unique is that my services are tuned precisely to each of my clients: their products and customers, and the way their teams work. I only provide solutions that fit.
Here are some examples of some of my fixed-price services with are often ideal for startups:

Finishing up a CS master's this semester, and looking for opportunities starting in the late summer or fall. I have experience as a full-stack (or fullstack, or full stack, whatever people ctrl-f for) developer as part of an intern/consultant position where I worked directly with customers to deliver features across databases/cloud infrastructure/web API integrations/frontends. I've also mostly-independently bootstrapped a commercial music production plugin (Pivotuner, more info on my website).
Open to most anything! I'm a fan of functional programming and programming language theory, currently doing research in logic/relational programming. I also have a background in music (I'm a published composer!) so particularly interested in audio/music-related stuff as well.

AI Systems Architect. I build inference infrastructure, agentic pipelines, and production ML stacks — not prototypes that crumble in prod.
Track record: - Employee #1 at Refact.ai (ex-OpenAI founder). Scraped 80M code repos, co-built dataset for Refact-1.6B-fim (SOTA HumanEval 2022). Built enterprise LLM inference backend, RAG over AST+vectors, SWE-bench-compatible agent loop. - Interim Head of AI (0→1): shipped full air-gapped ML stack in <6 months — training, inference, synthetic data pipelines, fine-tuned BERTs/LoRAs at 70 labels production F1. - Currently: sub-400ms voice-to-voice cascade (STT+VAD+LLM+TTS) on consumer GPU. Zero-dependency MCP server in pure Python.
I operate as Nautiloid Protocol LLC. Clean B2B engagement, no hiring overhead, no equity games.
Looking for: AI infrastructure contracts where output is judged by systems shipped, not meetings attended.

Résumé: github.com/CrimsonShadowLR Email: llazolarosa@gmail.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/leandrollr
I'm a Full-Stack Developer with 5+ years of experience building production web applications. Currently at a startup in Lima where I've worked across the full stack — from NestJS microservices and real-time WebSocket systems to React/Next.js frontends, serving up to 5,000 concurrent users.
Some things I've built: a digital wallet ecosystem (3 frontends + 3 microservices), a tournament platform with live leaderboards, a multi-platform soccer analytics app with Redis-optimized queries, and CMS-driven marketing pages with SSR. I've also built an Android overlay app for Japanese manga translation using Google ML Kit OCR and the Gemini API — more of a personal project, but it shows I can work outside the browser too.
I have a B.Sc. in Informatics Engineering from the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú.
Looking for a remote full-stack or backend-leaning role at a product company. Open to async-first teams across any timezone. Happy to do a trial project.
I run a consulting company (atomweight.io), and have provided infosec, devops, and software engineering services to a variety of clients. I am open to both full-time and contract engagements.
I don't particularly enjoy coasting or clocking out at 5pm (mostly since I'm a night owl), so I'm looking for opportunities where I can move fast, build, ship fast, contribute the most value, and grow. If my skills and experience seem like a good fit for your needs, please reach out!
I currently have 10 hours/week available. I'm not considering full time roles at this time, only contract work. Thanks.

Hi, I'm Alex Stout, a full-stack software engineer who's combined their mastery of the fundamentals with AI development tool proficiency. Last year I co-created Unilogs, a highly scalable log observability platform featuring a condensed one-step deployment to AWS (read more about it in the case study I wrote here: https://unilogs.github.io/). Recently, I've been contributing to Mozilla Firefox (in JS) and the TypeScript-based Mastra AI framework, e.g. I built a Datadog LLM trace exporter for Mastra as part of the lead-up to their first stable release.
