SEEKING WORK | Cambridge/London UK or Remote
I'm a software engineer with 10+ years of programming experience. I've helped startups get started and big companies keep going.
I've organised a couple of jobs through HN now; it's been a good way to find interesting projects, and my clients have been pleased with the work. One said: "Thank you! I've played with it a bit and it looks very impressive! Way better than what I imagined this project could be."
If you have web projects, then there's a good chance I've worked on something similar before and will be able to hit the ground running. If you need more general programming, I can do it. If you're doing something a bit esoteric, that would definitely suit me – I've done FPGAs, network protocols, more ETL than you can shake a stick at, and devising novel algorithms.
I haven't yet found a programming language that I'm not productive in. In the last 5 years I've written (at least) C#, Java, Python, Javascript (browser and Node.js), and Ruby professionally. Last year, I quickly picked up Typescript, and soon helped the rest of the team understand it better, and I completed 23 days of Advent of Code in Rust.
I'm friendly and easy-going, enjoy mentoring and working with other developers. I'm happiest on fixed-term projects that I can complete on a schedule that suits both of us, and my clients have been very happy with this process too.
