I am one of the main devs behind MongooseIM, a fork of ejabberd - massively scalable XMPP server in Erlang. My most important contributions are XEP-0198: Stream Management support and BOSH, i.e. XMPP over HTTP. I've integrated the server with AMQP brokers and other 3rd party HTTP/REST services. Non-professionally I'm interested in OS level programming and Rust (from Mozilla).

I've been a software engineer for 15 years. I've primarily been part of small teams that built a data warehouse ETL utility that processed billions of customer records nightly for a dozen Fortune 500 companies; a distributed document store with terabytes of historical data, an ISO consistency requirement, and a strict availability guarantee; and a service-oriented platform managing internal business data worth millions of dollars in revenue. I also have experience leading, mentoring, and training developers.

I'm interested in service-oriented architectures, programming languages, and distributed systems, but I'm willing to branch out into new domains. I recently reached a 365-day consecutive streak of commits to GitHub (still going at 443 consecutive commits). I wrote about my experience: http://polybits.net/2014/08/16/365-days-of-github/.

My GitHub projects include 100+ solutions to Project Euler (in 13 languages and 790+ implementations), a RESTful content-addressable storage server, a proxy for local and remote filesystems, a LINQ-inspired shell, a simple performance monitor, a beanstalkd library, two libraries in Erlang and Go for writing an AI bot for Vindinium, and numerous contributions to Rust.

Huh, what's with the down votes?
at a guess, because you make people jump through hoops to get your email address even though it was specifically requested, and in the case of at least one of those hoops, it's a lie. your email address is not on your profile.
Indeed, thanks for the heads up. Email address added.

Résumé: http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://raw.githubusercontent....

Email: alex@stangl.us

GitHub: https://github.com/astangl

I'm a strong Java developer wanting to transition to Clojure. In 14 years as a senior Java developer, mentor, and team lead, I mastered many associated technology stacks. Coworkers and friends look to me for programming advice and assistance in solving complex problems. I relish challenging projects. I strive to write exceptionally clean code, along with suites of thorough unit and integration tests.

I am looking for an opportunity to do more functional programming, ideally in Clojure. Although I have not used Clojure professionally, I solved all 150 problems on the 4Clojure.com website, and am well on the way to proficiency. I worked the problems from the first two chapters of the classic SICP in both Clojure and Haskell, and am reading Clojure books (and a style guide) to learn good idiomatic Clojure.

Besides using Java in my job, I write a lot of JavaScript, and also automate routine tasks using scripts written in Perl, Ruby, Python, and shell scripts. As part of continually honing my skills, in my free time I experiment with many languages, including Lisp, Erlang, OCaml, Haskell, Scala, and Clojure. Also I have begun Android development in my free time, initially with Eclipse, but now Android Studio. I have Github repos with some Haskell examples, and have solved over 100 Project Euler problems using Haskell. I also maintain several FreeBSD ports and do technical reviews for O'Reilly. Currently I am doing a technical review of an upcoming Clojure book.

I get excited at the prospect of working on interesting and challenging problems, and on systems that impact large numbers of people. Getting to develop in Clojure would also be a big plus. I have experience working remotely, and with my background and abilities, I will be an asset to your team.

Desired Role: Backend development strongly preferred, but flexible. Willing to learn whatever is needed.
