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:

Software engineer with 9+ years building high-load cloud services in .NET, with full-stack Typescript experience in side projects and tooling. Passionate about developer velocity - if a process wastes time, it should be automated, so engineers can focus on shipping features that matter. Looking for senior backend or full-stack roles.
I'm a Full-Stack Developer, Web Designer and Image Editor with over 25 years of professional experience. Problem-solver and avid learner, I'm used to working with small and large teams across enterprise, government and third-sector. I take deadlines and delivery commitments very seriously.
Remote: Yes, or hybrid if nearby

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!
Looking for: Full-stack, backend, or AI engineer roles working on enterprise/consumer AI products. Very open to new technologies, as I really enjoy learning and building using cutting-edge tech.
At internship: Built AI agents with Semantic Kernel (reduced workflows 40%, 20K+ users), Python/Golang backend with gRPC on AWS, and Angular micro-frontends.
Currently: Leading 6-person team on medical QA analysis platform processing 150K+ data points across 4 hospital sites (ASP.NET, Next.js, Docker, PostgreSQL, Nginx).
Research: Co-authored 2 papers on RAG systems (Best Paper Award at IMNS 2025, published at IEEE/ACM CHASE 2025: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3721201.3725519). Built RAG application achieving 95% accuracy on healthcare automation.
Recent projects:
- Automated course scheduler using AI tool calling+ Google OR-Tools (React, SQLite, FastMCP, FastAPI) for econ department
- Sidequest: iOS app (React Native + Swift) with on-device OCR + LLM parsing using Vision Framework for receipts

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.

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/programming language theory/compilers, 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.
In general I'm trying to figure out what to do next, so would be up to connect regardless of hiring-related stuff!

What I do: I build agentic systems and full-stack infrastructure — things that ship, observe themselves, and run autonomously.
Recent work:
- Founding contributor at NimbleBrain: designed the agentic loop and workflow engine that guides AI agents through building and publishing MCP server integrations end-to-end
- Co-created Vispyr: self-hosted observability platform on AWS with automated infra provisioning, OTel instrumentation, and a full Grafana telemetry stack
- Mozilla Firefox contributor: accessibility and DevTools CSS refactors
Stack I reach for: Python, TypeScript, AWS, Docker, PostgreSQL, Grafana stack, OpenTelemetry, MCP
AI-native: I build with Claude Code daily. Comfortable across the agentic toolchain — RAG, vector DBs, MCP, context engineering.

Over ten years as an engineer and team lead at startups.
Product-minded, design experience, and always in product teams.
Most recently I was Engineering Manager and Technical Product Owner at Skribble (Switzerland, remote). Setting architecture direction, owning the roadmap, and staying hands-on with the team building the core product.
Before that I was the first Berlin hire at super.AI in 2018, where I built their customer-facing data labeling platform.
On the side I'm building a hardware/software ecosystem around the electric bass: AI-generated real-time DSP, OpenCV-based TUIs, DevEx.

Low-bandwidth course-builder: https://github.com/ohmstone/useful
