I'm a starting-out junior. BUT, I'm very passionate and I'm super motivated. I enjoy a good challenge and professional growth. I can become a net-positive asset on your team fairly quickly if I'm given a chance to! I've been published by freeCodeCamp: https://medium.freecodecamp.org/how-to-understand-django-mod.... I've been learning to code for about a year. I blogged about some things (http://arevej.me/) and made quite a few learning projects (http://arevej.me/portfolio/ + http://github.com/arevej)

Hello, hope your day is going well so far!

My name is Wyatt, I'm a full-stack developer with the front-end being my stronger side.

For a sample of the work I do, I developed an application which allows people to easily create their own chatbot for the Google Home or other platforms. It has a Go backend and a Vue frontend, using Redis and Postgres, deployed with Docker and Kubernetes. See the links below for more details on that. There are several things I would do differently today if it were to be done over again, but it was an amazing learning experience and if nothing else serves as a good indicator of the breadth of my work.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Please feel free to reach out for any questions.

[bloomca]

Location: Florence, OR, United States

Remote: only remote

Willing to relocate: no

Technologies: Node.js, JS (fullstack), Hapi.js, Express.js, koa.js, React, vanilla JS, SQL, Docker, a bit of Python (Django)

Résumé/CV: https://bloomca.me/resume.pdf

Email: [email protected]

I am a web developer, with main expertise in JavaScript (~5 years), mostly client-side, with small services in Node.js using hapi/express/koa. I am open for senior/lead FE positions, or fullstack. I also know a bit of Python/Django, so open for these opportunities as well.

I created several big applications from scratch, was involved in several major refactorings (mostly to React), and in general always involved/lead architectural efforts. I know how to configure webpack in depth, and can write a custom babel plugin, or just Node.js script if it solves some real problem, and not afraid to look into internals of some library.

I publish my ideas to GitHub – https://github.com/Bloomca, and also have a blog with ~150k total views, about JavaScript and software development – https://blog.bloomca.me/.

I look only for remote positions within US.

[Mc91]

Location: USA

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Depends

Technologies: Android programmer. Java and Kotlin. Know Jetpack, Room, MVVM, LiveData, data binding etc. Know JUnit and Espresso tests. Know 3rd party libraries - Retrofit, Okhttp, Dagger, Gson and Moshi, Glide, RxJava.

I have worked on apps released on Google Play, some I did from launch to release.

I also have some experience doing Swift iOS coding, but it is not my expertise. I am also familiar with things like MySQL/MariaDB, Python, Unix VPSs, Google cloud virtual machine instances (and a little with Amazon EC2) etc.

I'm capable of launching a cloud (or VPS) instance, installing LAMP (Linux/Apache/MariaDB/Python), designing a MySQL/MariaDB database, writing a simple Python REST API, and off and away. I prefer to focus on the Android app, but I can do the whole thing. I am not that up on modern HTML/CSS/Javascript and whatever the JS framework of the month is however.

Resume: E-mail me. I have programmed Android since 2011, and have worked in IT longer than that.

Email: [email protected]

Bonus: Currently I am really looking to build my portfolio more than make money. I am currently working at a small company for a very, very low salary, and a sizable equity stake. I wouldn't mind working for a post series A or large company, but I'm willing to work for pre series A companies (or - possibly - even pre-seed/angel companies), and the commensurate salaries. In other words, I am affordable to early stage companies.

[coopes]

Location: USA

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Depends

Technologies: Python programmer. SQL and JavaScript skills. Know modern front-end frameworks (Vue), and have plenty of experience with web frameworks like Flask, Django and some with Express. Entrepreneurial focused background with an emphasis on building projects that focus on pricing/making money off the spread (market making like) in some capacity.

I have been operating the side project I started last year (Minerva), but the work load is almost entirely automated at this point and I now have free time to focus on different opportunities again.

I am also especially familiar with deploying in a Unix environment and dealing with virtual machines (largely my own spun up using VMware's ESXi) etc.

I'm capable of launching a cloud (or VPS) instance, installing LAPP (Linux/Apache/PostgreSQL/Python) or some variation (MEAN), designing a PostgreSQL database, writing a simple Python REST API, and building out simple MVP's as a result. I prefer to focus on the backend, but I can operate the entire stack. My github is https://github.com/Cooops.

Resume: https://linkedin.com/in/cooper-ribb/

Email: [email protected]

Bonus: Currently I am really looking to build out my portfolio and explore unique opportunities, so my rate should be very reasonable in the grand scheme.

----------

Hi. I'm a software and hardware engineer. I've been programming since elementary school -- electronics and computers were my hobby before they were my profession. I can write device drivers, read disassembler output, design PCBs with microcontrollers and the firmware for them, and of course solve and debug complex problems and processes. I'm familiar with OS internals (Linux, Android, Windows), multithreading, networking (including reverse engineering wire protocols), and adding programmatic hooks to binaries that were never designed for it (Code/DLL injection). I have a spectrum analyzer and oscilloscope and I'm not afraid to use them -- I've been working on my RF design skills ever since I discovered Amateur Radio (I have an extra class ticket and plan on becoming a VE). I know web development but frontend work is pretty much at the bottom of the list of things I enjoy.

I'm also deaf and I have a cochlear implant, so I can communicate well in person but the reduced fidelity of cell phones and the lack of lip reading gives me some issues.

Senior developer with diverse background looking for full-time jobs in the DC metro area or remote within the US. I am highly adaptable as well as comfortable in a variety of roles, programming languages, and technologies.

My technology experience is far beyond what is listed and includes web apps, distributed systems, native apps, database design, streaming, and more. I have previously worked remotely as well as internationally. I have held various developer and management roles at startups, software companies, non-profits, and consulting firms.

Recently, I have spent most of my time working on personal projects and open source libraries mainly using Elixir and Erlang. Generally, I enjoy working in whatever is the best tool for the job and therefore I am enthusiastic to learn new languages and technologies.

I am willing to discuss nearly any role if it looks interesting. At this time, I am not looking for front-end only, 100% consulting, or heavy-travel roles, however.
