SEEKING WORK - Brighton, UK. London, UK. Sheffield, UK. Remote.

Freelance developer based in Brighton (50 minutes from London) but I'm also in Sheffield once a month. I am flexible, resourceful and reliable and I can help you turn your ideas into reality.

I work a lot with Python (often with Django) and Javascript (Node.JS and browser, often with Angular.JS or D3.JS) to build rich client browser based and mobile apps. I also do hardware based projects, I have experience with coding in Assembly and C on various micro controllers and Arduino development.

I can help you with software development myself and for larger projects, or projects requiring more diverse skills, I have an excellent team I can bring on to a project.

Recent projects include an internet controlled football playing robot and various other Python, Javascript and hardware projects. So http://tomparslow.co.uk for more details.

A very non-exhaustive list of technologies I have built real things with (and enjoyed): Python, Javascript, Django, Node.JS, Backbone.JS, AngularJS, OpenCV, D3.js, Arduino.

Please get in touch!

SEEKING WORK - Orlando, FL. United States. Remote.

We are software consultants that focus on application security. Whereas security consultants usually do not have the bandwidth to take on developer roles and many developers usually do not understand application security, we seek to fill the gap.

To the other freelancers who might be reading this:

Please do read our blog. We post a lot of information there with the intention of raising awareness of application security issues. Some of this information might be very helpful. We strive for weekly posts and every blog post is Creative Commons.

So far, one of our blog posts has already influenced an open source security project and we've only been writing them for a month now:

Seeking pro bono work

I am a senior online marketing professional. I created the online ad program from scratch at a company that grew revenue over 150% from 2013 to over one hundred million dollars in 2014.

I am not interested in a new job or formal consulting, but I do want to give free advice to test out my digital acquisition knowledge in very varied circumstances.

SEEKING WORK - Santa Cruz, Bolivia.

I'm the founder of the Oceanis team, and I'm currently in a long term engagement with StackShare[1].

We focus primarily on helping startups get off the ground and taking wishy-washy requirements and turning them into reality - working code.

I'm currently looking for projects the rest of my team can work on. We all speak English fluently (Boston ex-pats) and communicate with clients usually through Slack or Skype. Issue handling either by Trello or JIRA - but it's up to our clients. We generally recommend Trello.

https://www.odesk.com/companies/Oceanis-Bespoke-Ruby_~012969...

Rails 4, Go, Meteor (fingers crossed!), PostgreSQL.

SEEKING WORK - The Netherlands or Remote.

I'm an experienced full-stack software developer, team lead and interim CTO. Currently bootstrapping CEO at http://klets.co, but I do occasionally have time to help people get their team or their stack up and running. Do get in touch!

Keyword soup: C#/.NET, JavaScript, TypeScript, ReactJS, Flux, Java, Scala, C++ and Python, Elixir (Erlang VM), Xamarin, PhoneGap/Cordova, PostgreSQL, Mono, DDD, Scrum, Kanban, Lean.

As an engineer, I specialize in ReactJS based projects and CQRS backends. I've been the lead engineer and architect for three React-based projects up until now, including http://www.izooble.com, if you'd like a sizeable showcase.

React does not dictate your frontend software architecture. Depending on your needs and your team's existing skills, very different architectures may be best. I can help you figure this out so that we're productive very fast but still produce good and maintainable code from the get-go.

As a team lead, I specialize in cutting away the nonsense and getting a team highly productive in startup-like environments. I accomplish this with a lightweight, non-religious, and highly reflective agile process, together with a pragmatic focus on internal software quality. This focus ensures that the team is productive today and also next month.

Contact info on http://superset.eu.

SEEKING WORK - Primarily Remote, with potential for short on-site trips.

10 years experience across a mixture of Ops/Infrastructure and web application architecture and development, with a focus on solving unique/uncommon problems.

I’m looking for opportunities to help companies with backend/server-side architecture & development (primarily PHP MVC), system integration and/or server infrastructure setup/maintenance.

I mostly work remotely from Thailand, on a very flexible schedule (I can schedule work hours to get overlap with most other timezones when required) but on-site visits to pretty much anywhere are a possibility if required too.

Contact me via email to stephen.reay@me.com or via Jabber/XMPP to stephen.reay@dukgo.com if you want to have a chat about what you’re working on!

SEEKING WORK - Remote, based out of Boston, MA

My name is Sam, and I’m a front-end web specialist. Here are a few examples of problems I can help you solve:

- Your site looks great and loads fast on your computer, but it’s broken and slow on smartphones and tablets.

- You keep getting emails that your site isn’t working quite right in a few browsers, or in a few countries.

- Your site’s codebase hasn’t seen any attention in a while, and you’re pretty sure there’s room for improvement.

- You have a great idea for a service or product, but need someone to knock out the implementation while avoiding all the aforementioned troubles.

Beyond my focus on the front end, I also have design experience — UI / UX, logo and branding design — and experience with server-side development as well. I’m T-shaped, if you will, so if I don’t have the right answer to a problem I can point you in the right direction towards finding the solution.
