Location: near Dayton, Ohio Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: No Technologies: JavaScript, Node.js, HTML5, CSS3, ES6, Bootstrap, Java, Python, C#, Ruby, Express, React, Redux, Angular, REST, WebSockets, API Design, IoT/Embedded, DevOps, Postgres, AWS Résumé/CV: http://www.nfriedly.com/Nathan-Friedly-Resume.pdf http://www.nfriedly.com/Nathan-Friedly-Resume.pdf Also see http://www.nfriedly.com/portfolio/ http://www.nfriedly.com/portfolio/ and https://github.com/nfriedly https://github.com/nfriedly Email: nathan@nfriedly.com I'm a strong developer with a lot of experience, especially with JS and Web technologies. I've worked everywhere from tiny startups up to huge megacorps and also run my own business before. I currently work remote for IBM on the Watson team, doing mostly developer experience work (SDKs, demos, example code, etc.) + some internal tooling work to automate various processes. The Watson group has a new manager that wants everyone to move to a small handful of cities, and I'm not in a good position to do that at the moment. I've requested an exception, but if that gets denied, then I'll be moving on to a new position. There are a couple of other managers outside of the Watson group that want to hire me already, so there's not much chance that I'll actually be unemployed, but I thought this may be a good opportunity to look around and see what else is available. Things I'm good at and enjoy doing: * JavaScript: This is kind of my specialty - I've been writing AJAX-driven web apps since before jQuery even existed, and working with Node.js since v0.2. * Developer Experience / API design and development: essentially UI and UX for developers :) I have a lot of experience here. * Automation: I'm a big fan of Continuous Integration & Deployment, which essentially means I'm good at writing unit tests, integration tests, etc. I also like to automate business processes to speed things along. * Open Source: I like doing Open Source work, and I believe that there is often significant value to be gained by releasing certain components of your codebase. * IoT: I'm not really an expert here, but I've done a few projects with Arduino, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, etc. and had a lot of fun. If this sounds like it may be a good fit for your business, please get in touch. I might just be the purple unicorn that you've been looking for ;)
