I have 9 years of professional experience in software development. I am excellent in two areas: iOS development (Objective-C, Swift) and front-end development (Javascript, HTML5, etc). I also have experience in back-end (Python, MongoDB) and stand-alone desktop applications development.

I worked for two big international Internet companies and developed many services and applications with tens of millions of end-users.

Four years ago I also built my own productivity tool and since that time I got about 50000 registered users (http://thn.gs/). Now I'm only maintaining it.

I have a Master degree in Information Technology (Moscow State Institute of Electronics and Mathematics).

Full Time Generalists and Front End Engineers | Downtown San Francisco (near the Montgomery BART Station)

We have a very agile group of 12 engineers at Academia.edu in Downtown SF. I joined them because I really respect the problems that they are working on. Are you aware of how inefficient, inaccurate, slow and costly, scientific publishing is? In fact, the vast majority of peer-reviewed scientific research that gets published is actually not reproducible. Imagine a world where scientists can share their research more quickly, obtain greater peer-review coverage, and innovate faster. I joined because I wanted to contribute to building this disruptive Open Science platform.

Below you can find some more info about the company and the general mission of Open Science below if you're interested in the subject.

The tech stack here consists of Rails, Coffeescript, Backbone, PostgreSQL, hosted on AWS. I'd like to tell you more about our team so ping me at ashley@academia.edu so we can set up a quick call.

More about the company:

According to EdTech Magazine we are tech underdogs who are “key disruptors among open-access publishers.”

http://www.edtechmagazine.com/higher/article/2014/06/open-ac...

And we are viewed by Wired as “a key player in the movement toward open access scientific publishing.”

http://www.wired.com/2014/07/incentivizing-peer-review-the-l...

We have 15MM users who support our mission and we are growing 10% per month. We are financially backed with $17MM by top VCs including Khosla Ventures, True Ventures and Spark Capital.

NYC

Remote:

Yep, but also willing to go onsite.

Willing to relocate:

Not really, only looking for contract roles.

Technologies:

Need security?

I'm a consulting security engineer for all levels of product development (network, web, mobile).

I offer rock solid penetration testing and source code review. My work has been featured in The Register and SecurityWeek and I've resolved vulnerabilities affecting hundreds of millions of users at this point.

I'm not a point and click drone - I do both automated and manual testing for a full grasp of what's amiss in a tech stack. Many of my tools are those I wrote or scripted myself.

For each engagement I also do dev team advisory for best practices so they know how to implement security going forward.

Technologies: I'm a generalist engineer. I've worked from the lowest levels of computing (hardware) all the way up to web programming, and everything in between. I've worked on large legacy codebases and developed systems that serve 1 billion users. You won't find rock-stardom or diva attitudes with me -- just quiet competence and a desire to ship solid deliverables.

If I had to pick favorites though, I'd say my favorite languages are C++ (since C++11, anyway!) and Clojure. My favorite projects involve OS development and distributed computing infrastructure. I can also work with heavily legacy codebases -- if you need something updated but don't know how to do it, I can investigate and make the small, surgical changes needed to fix big problems in a hard-to-understand legacy application.

Willing to relocate: Temporary relocation OK.

Technologies: I'm an Emergency Startup CTO. I'm your panic button. I will dive into the mud and get an excellent version of your product across the finish line and into users' hands. The reason I have been successful at this is because I deeply understand how engineering choices impact product features, and vice-versa. My skills come as a triad: rapidly prototyping web products with 2-6 person teams, backend webapp infrastructure engineering and architecture, and algorithmic design and domain modeling.

Résumé/CV: upon request

I help startup and small business owners get more sales with less efforts.

I do so by focusing their marketing efforts on qualified leads, and by automating their sales process. The practical steps I introduce them to reduce their costs (by not chasing random traffic) and increase their revenue (by improving their conversion rates.)

In addition to this business savvy, I’m gifted with a wide range of in-depth IT and telecoms skills. I can draw on this varied expertise to lead an interdisciplinary team to execute every step towards launching, growing, and managing a product. In a staff-constrained startup, I can also fill in many positions. In particular, I can sell to businesses small and large, write marketing copy, engineer software, or mine a database.

Among the colorful highlights in my career to date, I’ve been put in charge of designing an SDSL startup's network while still an intern, and I've turned a personal blog into a 4,000-customer strong business while globe trotting.

I’m open for short consulting missions and long-term opportunities.

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Maybe

Technologies: C#/.NET, Node, C++, Lisp (Scheme + Clojure). Experience in 3D printing and rapid fabrication, design software (Autocad, Illustrator, etc).
