Technologies: I am full-stack and have been almost everywhere in the consumer market:
- Rust, TypeScript/JavaScript/Node.js/Bun/Deno, Swift/Obj-C, C/C++, Python, Go, C#
- Windows, Linux desktop/server, macOS/iOS, some BSD (mostly from macOS)
- Tokio/Rayon, React.js/Svelte/Angular, SwiftUI/some AppKit, wxWidgets, Asyncio/Twisted
- Desktop, embedded, web, backend, some mobile (mostly iOS)
- Burn, GGML, NumPy, some JAX, some Mojo, some MLX
Rust is definitely my favorite and TypeScript is up there as well.
I have used PHP, Scala, Haxe, Haskell and some others but would not call myself proficient in them. I could pick them up for a role though. I am a very quick learner.
I have been doing this for over 10 years & have a beefy personal machine. I am available to interview immediately and can start immediately. Contact me with anything.
Senior iOS engineer / Apple-platform consultant with 12+ years of experience.
I build and fix iOS and Vision Pro apps from medical devices and high-traffic consumer apps to vibecoded startups. I also help teams get difficult apps approved: App Store rejection triage, reviewer-note/metadata fixes, and fractional senior iOS support for startups.

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!

- Software engineer with 6+ years of experience working with production systems, debugging critical workflows, improving system reliability and supporting user-facing applications.
- Have been extending my skillset with modern frontend stack and “.Resolve” (https://resolve.madkum.com/), an internal SaaS ticketing dashboard prototype built from scratch. It features live state management and caching via TanStack Query, a backend powered by Supabase, and custom role-based access control workflows for users and support agents. While I kept the UI clean, I prioritized engineering the entire end-to-end workflow and business logic.
Looking for Frontend or Product Engineer with Frontend focused roles at present but not limiting to. Willing to pick up new stacks based on the project requirements with generalist mindset.
Thank you!

Most AI agents in production are black boxes. When one fails, nobody can tell you why. I build the tooling that fixes that.
Tracea (tracea.dev): open-source observability for AI agents. Traces every LLM call by patching the HTTP transport layer, so there are no SDK wrappers, no framework lock-in, no code changes. Install and you see everything.
ObservAgent: local-first observability dashboard for Claude Code sessions. 1000+ active users, open source.
Before this: shipped a civic complaint platform to 50k+ users for a municipal government.
Looking for SWE engineer or AI engineer roles at startups building real production AI. High ownership, real users, hard problems.

I'm Ben Trettel, an experienced mechanical engineer with a PhD, specializing in computational fluid dynamics, design optimization, and verification & validation of computer simulations.
I am particularly interested in opportunities to build cutting-edge physical products where computational simulation and design optimization are key.
I believe in using the right tool for each task. Strong infrastructure background (AWS, cloud-native, distributed systems). US C-Corp for contracting.
I've attempted to bootstrap products myself so I understand what it takes beyond writing code. I take full ownership end to end, I don't wait to be told what needs solving.
Immediate availability because my whole team was laid off recently, I'm used to work on US timezones. Open to senior IC or tech lead roles.

P.S: I also have decent experience leveraging AI to speed up my work, not vibe coding but holding AI-hands like I'd typically do with junior devs. I also have built multiple AI integrations.
I design agent topologies using A2A protocol, MCP, and Google ADK, own full lifecycle delivery from architecture to deployment, and interface directly with clients at the C-level.
3x Google Cloud certified, Claude Certified Architect, C1 English.
Looking for full remote AI Engineer or Forward Deployed Engineer roles in companies of any size as I like new and unexpected challenges !
My work focuses on high-risk database migrations, dangerous schema remediation, hot-path optimization, and making existing systems scale without rewriting the product.
Open to consulting or full-time roles where data is central and performance matters.

Hi, I'm Jonathan, a PhD physicist who moved into infrastructure: Linux systems, DevOps, and automation
I run infrastructure for an open-source blockchain project; a 40+ node Linux fleet covering provisioning, virtualization, DNS, monitoring, deployments, and user-facing services. I also operate a small IT/hosting consultancy where I own the full stack from bare metal up. Before this, my background was postdoctoral biophysics and ML research (GROMACS, SLURM, ML-assisted free-energy prediction) plus contract cloud engineering at a startup.
I'm a strong fit for platform, infrastructure, SRE, DevOps, or computational research roles. I do my best work in small, collaborative teams, and I'm comfortable wearing many hats.
20+ years across product, UX and frontend, now doing user-facing AI engineering.
What I do best right now: you shipped an app fast with Lovable / v0 / Cursor and it works, but it looks and behaves like the AI default. I take that codebase and make it actually usable and on-brand. Real design system in code (not a Figma file nobody maintains), consistent components, the polish and interaction layer that makes it feel like a product instead of a prototype. Done-for-you, in your repo.
I also help teams that already build with AI but get inconsistent, off-brand results, via a hands-on workshop / masterclass, so your people can produce in your own style instead of getting generic output.
Tech: React/Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind, design systems / design tokens, Figma, Claude Code + agentic workflows.
