Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (May 2026)
Please lead with either SEEKING WORK or SEEKING FREELANCER, your location, and whether remote work is a possibility.
Please only post if you are looking to hire a freelancer or work as one. Small (2-5 person) agencies are fine, but recruiters, job boards, and so on, are off topic here.

I fluctuate between:
- Deep learning / Neural networks - from architecture to inference. You might have used my ♥ Lovely Tensors library if you work with PyTorch (or JAX). Some CUDA, pytorch profiler, etc.

- Full-stack AI-adjacent applications - the usual LLM API tool-calling "agentinc" AI + full-stack web, ideally with SvelteKit (typescript, tailwind, shadcn, drizzle, etc).

Hi, I'm Hunter, and I have 2 decades years of experience leading product technology organizations. I've worked with teams from 1 person to 400+ and successfully exited 4 times. I excel at de-risking large initiatives (shipping year-long projects in months), AI enablement, as well as aligning and integrating Product + Engineering with other departments. Let me know if you want to get more revenue out of your product technology org - I especially love speaking with customer-obsessed founders and leaders.
I am a backend expert, having built and maintained mission critical, low latency and highly available systems for many companies over the last 10 years, in addition to over 20 total years of software development experience. I learn new things extremely quickly. AWS preferred but not required (I hold a variety of certs, available here: https://www.credly.com/users/jon-north.ad78f0c8)
You will like working with me because I:
Concrete examples:* built the primary streaming data architecture for realtime game player tracking information (all games, 50ms SLA) and game stats for one of the top 3 US sports leagues (can’t name drop!) using Redpanda/Kafka on Azure+Terraform, and implemented its developer portal using Gravitee to provide first class streaming API support and monetization. Also built, deployed and maintained their ask-a-question-get-a-true-answer AI bot to expose 20+ years of stats to natural language fan questions! (this was the third of currently four times I’ve built similar architectures for different companies)
* Implemented a vector DB for one of the leading AI image hallucination platforms (millions of users) to provide an image similarity service.
* replatformed dozens of complex quant jobs to AWS Lambda for a startup hedge fund (~$1B AUM), vastly improving QoS and maintenance cost. Line 1 to platform-in-prod time 3 months, including refactoring for fit. This was mission critical cannot-fail stuff and required extensive proof of correctness.
* built a framework to collapse dozens of singleton ETL programs into one config-driven, simple C# application performing the same functionality at ~80% reduction in maintenance cost year over year.

Hi, I'm Joseph. I have a special love for the cloud and infrastructure as code. I have 20 years experience doing development, systems engineering, DevOps, and data engineering. I've worked with companies to greatly improve uptime and profits and get their processes under control. I've worked in heavily regulated environments and helped companies prepare for major audits and become certified in frameworks like HITRUST and FedRamp.
My tech stack is largely Go, Python, Terraform, Kubernetes, Rust, Zig, any CI/CD system. AWS and GCP.

Technologies: Anything. Very strong with TypeScript, frontend (React, Svelte, Vue, etc.) and backend. I love Bun. Very strong with Rust. Have used many languages.
I've built getinvoke.com - an app that lets you add custom, context-aware shortcuts to any mac app. Currently focused on music producers, mixers, and anyone else who spends their day doing audio work.
Very comfortable with Audio related work. Have good experience with music production and mixing, and mentored indie artists.
Got good grips on how React, Svelte, Vue, Solid work, both internally, and in practical terms. Led the transition for a 20K DAU website from a jQuery mess to a rewrite in Vue.
I've built Ethereum/Web3 payment systems before.
Worked with realtime online gaming and implemented cryptographically provably-fair algorithms.
Came up with & implemented a pluggable AI workflow system (think n8n) in the GPT-3.5 days.
Absolutely love design and UX. Kinda obsessed to be honest

I have production experience building and operating LLM-based products (RAG pipelines, Agentic systems, etc.), primarily in the legal tech space. I am currently a senior software engineer at a fintech where I do a mix of AI and full-stack engineering.
Looking for clients who need help figuring out how to build with LLMs, generally want an MVP, or who otherwise think my skills could be valuable for them.
