I absolutely love learning new fields, so I'm fairly technology- and project-agnostic. Ever since I visited a friend at his DARPA challenge team I've told people that my dream job would be working on self driving cars (sadly NYC isn't the best place for that right now). Lately, I'm more likely to find myself dreaming about strong AI.
I was iOS lead at OkCupid and, before that, worked on their homegrown distributed matching system and web server. I've [hacked coroutines into C++](http://sidnicious.github.io/team/ http://sidnicious.github.io/team/), started prototyping [a modern terminal](https://github.com/Sidnicious/Hoisin https://github.com/Sidnicious/Hoisin), and recently started writing a ZigBee stack to control my lightbulbs without a proprietary base station.
Most recently, I did a stint at [Keybase](https://keybase.io/ https://keybase.io/) working on semi-open source end-to-end crypto.
I was in the third batch of Hacker School and, every once and a while, I volunteer at conferences like HOPE, events.ccc.de, and Maker Faire.
If it sounds like I'd be a remotely good fit for your project, feel free to drop me an email! I'd love to chat.
