I have a strong background in math (real analysis, probability, discrete maths) and computer science (randomized algorithms, AI / epistemic logic, machine learning). I'm comfortable with clojure, python, erlang and ocaml but I will learn whatever is the right tool for the job.
I would consider full-time work for the right problem/team. I'm also interested in partnering with other freelance developers to cover the whole stack.
I am a sysadmin who loves to efficiently solve business problems. With a DevOps background, twelve years of sysadmin experience, and a passion for problem-solving, I am keen to help HNers achieve their goals. My main areas of expertise are:
Scaling high traffic websites
Designing highly-reliable applications
Migrating to AWS (e.g. from Heroku, if you want more control over your request routing and costs)
Server maintenance and optimisation
Reducing the cost of existing AWS resources
I am building a business around the idea of a 'sysadmin as a service' for those people who need regular sysadmin work, yet do not have enough projects to justify hiring a full-time sysadmin. Would you like a friendly expert to work on ad hoc projects and also be available for emergency support?
If you'd like to discuss any of these services in more detail, I'd love to hear from you - mike@fadedink.co.uk
Looking for experienced front end javascript developer in NYC to help continue to develop an large Instant Messaging application. Code base is currently backbone with a Rails back end and some other custom components. Application is deployed and in use by 10's of thousands of customers.
No remote work, sorry. Prefer a generalist with good all around experience including back end Rails work if possible. Contract is minimum of several months full time and pay is excellent.
SEEKING WORK - Remote/Freelance Python/Django/jQuery, with extensive experience building e-commerce marketplaces. I have a research background, data analysis, playing around with NLP right now. I run a django dev shop, currently taking gigs for it. Here's my portfolio:
I have experience working with: Bakcbone, Javascript, Nodejs, Coffeescript, Photoshop, Python.
I have built multiple apps using javascript/coffeescript/nodejs (full stack front-end/back-end).
Web app dev (PHP), web design, iOS & Android app dev/design, HTML build and perhaps 8 other things.
Skillz:
* PHP (mainly Codeigniter in recent times)
* HTML / CSS (5/3 respectively if you want hotness, XHTML and RDFa also if you prefer)
* Javascript / jQuery
* Titanium or Phonegap mobile dev
* Nice SEO
* UI/UX to some extent
* Git / Mercurial
Other stuff too numerous for a tidy post, but if it applies to the web I've probably had a go at it at some point.
I've worked on everything from Wordpress blogs to big e-commerce sites (big being relative but think $1m+/month). Also have a couple of new iOS/Android apps coming out shortly. I can see through an entire project from start to finish if required and have a lot of knowledge built up over time on what converts.
I'm Tech Director at FARM Digital. We're a digital agency based in the UK, but the right person can work remotely from anywhere. We're looking for a PHP freelancer who is confident using Symfony. The work is mainly maintenance work on some fairly high profile e-commerce sites (> £1mil turnover/year), so it isn't glamorous, but we're a fun team to work with, and the work is based on a retainer, so it's generally recurring. I estimate there is 3-4 days day a month here for the right person.
I can be contacted on jon@wearefarm.com, or @jon_atkinson. It would be good to see some examples of past work, or Github/Bitbucket links.
SEEKING WORK – Remote / Washington, DC Metropolitan Area
- I’m a full stack web developer who can take care of your web presence end-to-end, including hosting and system administration, as well as building out your designs.
What I can do for you:
- VPS Setup & Configuration, whether for a web server or otherwise.
- General SysAdmin work.
- PHP / MySQL back-end development (have been using Rails at my day job for 6 months or so, but I’m sure your money would be better used with another Rails developer).
- HTML5 Front-End, with excellent knowledge of best practices, and how to best deal with browser inconsistencies.
- Javascript: Been developing with jQuery since version 1.3, and greatly enjoy using Backbone.js as well. Of course, I can do the same tasks with “raw” Javascript, it’ll just take longer.
- Responsive Design: I’m excellent at converting existing templates into a responsive design to allow for mobile compatibility.
- CSS: Whether it be debugging some wonky IE6 issue, or creating a solid Compass pipeline for you, I’m here to help.
- CMS: I’ve developed several in-house content management systems, as well as doing a large amount of work in Wordpress and (ugh) Joomla.
Rapid MVP prototyping with Rails, concept and user experience development, iOS dev, and user interface design.
I can be your one stop shop for zero to MVP including nailing down the concept and MVP details, user flow construction, UI design, branding, rapid prototyping in Rails or iOS, and launch.

Combined skills:
* Ruby/Rails, Python, Obj C
* Backbone, Javascript/jQuery, other common JS frameworks
* Photoshop, Illustrator, all that good stuff
* Native and Phonegap iOS dev
* UI/UX
* UX testing
* Scaling high traffic applications
* Security testing and review
* Consulting for high-reliability code structure
We use best practices and do a damn good job. We're a great team of freelancers!
SEEKING WORK - San Francisco / Bay Area / Remote OK
I'm a fullstack web developer who enjoys working on all parts an app, from frontend to backend and even some sys admin. I've been building projects for myself and several companies for the past 6+ years. I'm most familiar with the following technologies: PHP(CodeIgniter), Python(Django), Javascript(node.js, backbone, angular) and MySQL/MongoDB/Solr. I just left my employer where I was lead developer for 2 of their largest sites to begin doing contract/freelance work again.
You can check out my latest side project http://iwaat.com, a search engine for web applications.
Email me at Lukeas14@gmail.com for more info on my background and to discuss your latest project.
Full stack developer: Node, PHP, Ruby/Rails, SQL and MongoDB
Mobile: iOS
I'm a super-generalist. I've done everything from developing for obscure ERP systems, to social networking sites, to mobile devices. Recently I've been pulled into the Node.js world where I've been designing data services and web services with Express and Restify on top of MongoDB.
I have immediate availability for most small projects. We can discuss longer-term engagements if needed.
Especially good with conceptualising and building mobile-first (iOS) apps and backend API. Had no. 1 app in Japan and top 20 app in US app store.
Full stack software engineer, focused on iOS and complementary backends. Good eye for detail and design. 12 years experience with both building and selling software for both SMBs and enterprise.
SEEKING WORK - Remote only, EST+6, GMT+1
Node.JS, Javascript, ASP.NET MVC, .NET, SQL Server, HTML5 mobile development
Super passionate about software development and tech in general.

I'm a full-stack web developer who just started a small dev agency in Los Angeles.
We're ultra-focused on web development and specialize in providing technical capabilities to agencies who don't have internal tech teams, or providing capacity to dev teams who don't have enough internal resources.
Our delegation is completely abstracted - all communications go through me and all deployment goes through our standard, simple processes.
We're currently available for a 20-hour or 40-hour per week retainer, starting in middle March.
SEEKING WORK - remote welcomed, will travel, Winnipeg/Toronto based
We're a small (there are three of us) web/mobile development shop in Canada. We do all of the usual PHP work with all of the usual frameworks/CMSes (Symfony, CodeIgniter, Cake, Concrete5, Wordpress, etc) but we much prefer working in Python/Node.js when the project allows. Personally, I'm particularly interested in client-side Javascript (or Coffeescript) applications (eg. using Backbone), especially projects with real-time and/or data visualization needs.
I also have experience doing embedded systems work and projects that interface web or mobile apps with [remote] hardware, in case that interests anyone :)
