I'm a software engineer with 16 years of programming experience. I've helped startups get started and big companies keep going.
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, speech recognition, more ETL than you can shake a stick at, and devising novel algorithms.
I consider myself a polyglot programmer and haven't found a language I can't be productive in yet. In the last 5 years I've written (at least) C#, Java, Python, Javascript (browser and Node.js), and Ruby professionally. In my last project, I quickly picked up Typescript, and soon helped the rest of the team understand it better.
I'm friendly and easy-going, enjoy mentoring and working with other developers. I just helped a client do a major rewrite (Angular 1 to React) in a two month timescale, which finished on time and budget.
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.

We at Vayavya Labs provide embedded software solutions across Automotive, EDA (Electronic Design Automation), Semiconductors, and Communications domains. We are looking for freelancers with a passion for reverse engineering, device driver development to be a part of a highly motivated team which works on Obsolescence Management of mission-critical embedded systems.
The lifetime of many mission-critical embedded systems is quite long and often requires replacement of the underlying hardware components (processor cards, network hardware, sensor cards etc..). Most often, the exact hardware component in the system would have gotten obsolete and would need to be replaced by similar hardware. Getting the same application software to run on the new hardware requires developing the device drivers for the new hardware as per the design of the older drivers. This often requires reverse-engineering the old driver code and/or binary patching.

I can provide the following for you:
- Design — Whether you need a design from scratch, a redesign, or you're having issues with a small part of you product, I can design it.
- Front-end Development — I can build the design into a pixel perfect product, this is rare among us designers and has proven to be extremely powerful for the end result since there is less wasted effort.
- Analysis — Your users know everything that's wrong with your product but have difficulty communicating it. Often it comes out in anger and frustration. That's where my usability and experience analysis comes in. I'll review your app from an outsider and expert point of view, and give you actionable feedback.
- Free advice — You might not be sure if I am the right fit and I very well might not be. I can help you figure out the best direction to go, for free.
I take my work very serious and put a lot of work into good communication, good planning, and, last but not least, properly understanding your product so that we can produce great results.

Technologies: Python, Go, Linux, AWS. Interested in Rust.
Might work on Java, Kotlin or Scala code. Fullstack experience, but prefer backend and scripting.
Résumé/CV: http://lpolzer.com/cv (not mobile-ready yet, sorry)
Email: [email protected]
Looking for remote contract or freelance work, but generally open to other opportunities.
I specialize in backend and scripting work, and have worked on a wide variety of projects over a span of more than 15 years. I can ramp up to new tech and environments quickly. My last gig was as a software engineer at Amazon Vancouver for 20 months. I speak German and English. I get work done, and can also communicate with clients to refine requirements. I am honest, and I'm trying to be a fair and decent person at all times.
Note: please definitely do not contact me if your vetting process includes "whiteboard" style coding or take-home challenges, or more than one technical discussion round. My preferred hiring process consists of a "getting to know" chat and a quick review of my sample code, taking no longer than a week. Also, no low-ball offers please, I generally charge at or above market average.
Thanks for reading! Looking forward to your messages. :-)

I am a LAMP web developer with over 15 years of experience and I've begun my own consulting business, to put that experience to work for others more directly. I'm currently looking for more clients.
On the backend, my experience includes PHP, MySQL/MariaDB, Elasticsearch, Bash, and general Linux administration.
On the front, I have worked with Javascript, jQuery, and Vue.js.
At the web application level, I have extensive experience with WordPress & Moodle.
My distinctive quality that I feel would make you give extra consideration is that I like to understand my client's needs not just at the technical level, but also the business and user level. Then, as a partner in your success, I like to craft the most efficient solution to your problem. I love finding a way to solve your difficult problems with fewer hours and at a lower cost than others.
I like doing things the "right" way, even if it takes more time, but I believe strongly in software as a quality product.
Please feel free to reach out to me at my username at fastmail.com.

Fullstack mid-senior level developer. I can also jump in as dedicated front/backend developer, though my strong suit is backend in that scenario. I'm also a pro at configuring servers including database setup, nginx configuration, and I've managed sentry and jenkins instances as well as configured terraform and docker builds.
I love learning new technologies (right now I'm learning Rust).
I can also consult on topics like: choosing a stack for your startup, how to build your MVP the fastest for the least amount of $$, or sourcing different api's and tools for your business..
I've been CTO for a couple startups and have lead a small team for a mobile app startup and dealt with making decisions on how the app was built, and setting up their CI/CD pipelines.

From 2005 until 2015 I ran my own development company. Since 2015 I’ve been using that experience to help companies and development teams take ‘the next step’. The next step in delivering higher quality products, the next step in gaining higher developer velocity and the next step in being a more predictable in planning and outcome.
I strongly believe the following factors help in taking this next step: 1. Never compromise in code quality. 2. Standardize as much as possible (to prevent reinventing the wheel and focus on adding value) 3. Automate everything 4. Create a safe to fail environment.
