SEEKING WORK | Central Europe(CET+0) | Remote | https://getivor.com

I'm a seasoned web development expert with a knack for UX design. I specialize in front-end(React), but also do back-end(Node).

I have extensive experience in architecting, building, and delivering large custom-made web applications.

Over the last decade I helped several US/EU based clients build Airbnb-like platforms, real-time GPS vehicle tracking suites, healthcare/finance/construction apps, and more.

I mostly collaborate with tech companies, but also have a lot of positive experiences assuming CTO-for-hire roles to work with non-technical founders.

Tech stack: React.js, JS/TypeScript/Babel, Node, Webpack, GraphQL, ESLint, Cypress.io, styled-components etc.

SEEKING WORK | Argentina | Remote

I'm a programmer, most familiar with C on Linux (both userland and the kernel). I'll be happy to start a project from scratch, or to help support any old codebase. For a sample of my work please see [1], a naive filesystem implementation I'm working on.

My country is going through one of its regular economic meltdowns, so my rates are very cheap. For what it's worth, I have a background in math.

SEEKING FREELANCER | REMOTE (but some overlap with US-Eastern time required)

We're looking for freelancers interested in taking on short-term projects involving developing, modifying, and maintaining Shopify themes for our customers at CALA [https://ca.la]. The time commitment needed would vary based on each project, and we would discuss availability and timeline before kicking off each new project. You'll be working on highly visible websites for some of the world's most creative fashion and apparel designers, ranging from indie brands to major celebrities.

We're looking for folks to build an ongoing relationship with; this isn't a one-shot project, we want to be able to offer you a continuous stream of new projects as they become available. We'll provide branding and design guidance and ensure that projects are well-scoped and constrained, but we're looking for folks who can make design and creative decisions themselves based on these guidelines.

We're based in NYC, but this is a remote position. Hours here are completely flexible, though there may be times when we'd need some overlap with US-Eastern time for calls or meetings.

Prior experience designing, building, and maintaining Shopify themes (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Liquid) is required. Please send examples of past work to [email protected]

SEEKING WORK — Remote okay

I’m Vijay, full-stack designer and developer from South India, freelancing at https://dffrnt.com.

Designed the award-winning branding for io.js, which eventually merged back into Node.js from which it was initially forked from — https://behance.net/gallery/23269525/IOJS-logo-concept

Previously at Infinera, I did data visualization/front-end engineering using a combination of d3.js and angular.js to bring their Java-based NMS (Network Management System) to the web. Highlights were building a semantic zoom for network topology navigation, icon design and building a visual library of web components that also served as a style guide called INDIGO (Infinera Design and Interface Guidelines and Objectives)

If you need to setup Nginx servers (with caching and TLS), build node.js apps, scrape websites (puppeteer), pull out data from OAuth gated APIs (passport.js/request), visualize data (d3.js), build out a complete marketing packet (logo design + branding, landing pages and full-on websites or web apps using vanilla JS + Node + Mongo/SQL stack), then please email me at [email protected].

Thank you.

SEEKING WORK | Vancouver, Canada | part-time / contract / freelance | onsite / remote

This is something I've been considering for a while, but now the pandemic is pushing it forward as I may be having a gap in my income coming. I'm looking for some paid work with a startup or fellow entrepreneur.

I'm a mechanical engineering technologist and project manager turned tech entrepreneur. I don't code, but have been slowly learning, and also trying out no-code tools. I have extensive experience in manufacturing and construction from my original career, and had a profitable consulting business in legal services that I pivoted to a tech company, releasing one web app in 2017. But this is all history now and I can't generate income from that in the near term. You can find more info about it in my IH profile.

I realize that there will be many talented people unfortunately entering the job market soon, many of them being specialists - engineers, marketers, designers... I believe I have something different to offer as a generalist that has filled many different roles and has very diverse experience.

If any of this resonates with you and you want some more info, I'm open to chat about any opportunity. Thanks so much for reading, and best of luck during this challenging time!
