Hi, I'm Nuno, a Result-Oriented Front End Angular Engineer with a strong technical skill-set, attention to detail, and 18 years of experience. I have a passion for translating beautiful designs into functional user interfaces and building great web applications.
I actively seek out new technologies and stay up-to-date on industry trends and advancements. Continued education has allowed me to stay ahead of the curve and deliver exceptional work to each employer I’ve worked for.
I've successfully delivered projects like a CSS UI library used by 17,000 employees, a mobile app that has 120,000+ users, and a web app serving over 100 million images. I've done frontend work for Adobe, Webflow, Bayer, among other companies.
I'm originally from Portugal but I've been working remotely for the last 7 years for companies worldwide. I can be flexible in order to have overlapping working hours with a distributed team.

I'm an expert engineer and data professional interested in consulting and architecting data pipelines. At Edmunds.com, I worked on a fairly successful ad-tech product and my team bootstrapped a data pipeline using Spark, Databricks, and microservices built with Java, Python, and Scala.
These days, I work for a "new media" company you probably heard of and, over the past year, I re-built an ETL Kubernetes stack, including data loaders and extractors that handle >10,000 API payload extractions daily.
My area of expertise includes data interoperability with Facebook Marketing, Facebook Graph, Instagram Graph, Google DFP, Salesforce, etc. That I'm a top-tier developer goes without saying. I'm interested in flexing my consulting muscle and can help with best practices, architecture, and hiring.
Would love to connect even if it's just for networking!

The future is as unknown as it ever has been and we as technologists play an important role in building it.
For the past 5 years or so I've been studying the business side of technology. Crossing the Chasm, Innovators Dilemma, 4 Steps to the Epiphany, etc. I've heavily annotated and studied over 100 texts on what, where, when, and why to build, not just the how that I focused 2 decades on.
What's considered important in society has changed in the last 30 days and hasn't yet stabilized. The future we were building toward is not the same and tomorrow is resembling yesterday less and less.
This means currently we are awash in new opportunities that may be hard to spot because they don't look like the old ones.
So if you're looking for a passionate experienced engineer who is looking to work towards a better tomorrow, please reach out, I'd like to talk to you.

Hi, I'm Raghav. I am a generalist engineer, with a deep appreciation for Product and Business.
There is no technology I am not willing to get my hands dirty with. As long as the problem is interesting (or important), I am up for solving it.
In my current role, I have been leading a team of half a dozen excellent people and we are working on niche SDR applications. I am looking for a fresh challenge. If you have a role for me that requires both solving an engineering problem and looking at the big picture, I'm your guy.

I recently moved to SF with my wife (sponsorship NOT required). I'm primarily a Technical Project Manager looking to help teams build software more efficiently. I'm looking to move into a Technical Program Manager or Technical Product Manager role.
I have worn many hats having worked for startups and small companies. I started off building support workflows, tooling, and documentation for an emerging telecom product. I moved into DevOps and infrastructure after that. And in the past couple of years earned my Scrum Master certificate and took on Project and Product Management roles. Have a look at jonpurdy.com/work to see some of the projects I've built or worked on.
Aside from my technical skills, I have a deep understanding of the product development pipeline and SDLC, balancing stakeholder requests with what is technically feasible, and gathering user feedback to improve products over time. Thanks to my education background, I can bridge technical and non-technical teams, help team members improve and achieve their career goals, and communicate succinctly and unambiguously.
Ideally, I'm looking for a SF Bay Area-based startup or growing company that has built (or is close to completing) an MVP and is looking to scale the development team's size and efficiency, technical infrastructure, product documentation, and product support workflows. But I'm open to pretty much any company, large or small.
Thanks and please email me if you have any questions or just want to chat.

I'd planned to take some time off over the summer, but then a global pandemic happened. Would love to engage on a short term project basis, but if you have something amazing full time I'm willing to be tempted.

Hi I’m Mark, I’m an Applied ML Scientist and Product Designer. I'm the founder of yuri.ai where my goal is to make it really easy for game developers to balance their games using Reinforcement Learning. I’m looking for a job because the Lebanese banking system is collapsing and I’ll soon need income to support my parents.
How I can help you:
I can write top notch documentation and can explain anything to anyone: My book robotoverlordmanual.com is a visual and accessible robotics, ML and math textbook with over 28000 monthly viewers. I’m very comfortable writing and speaking.
I can manage your most complex projects: I was the BI lead when Microsoft was selling its display ads business to AOL, I made sure Outlook AI efforts were compliant. I’ve worked on projects with 100+ stakeholders and have bootstrapped projects where I was the first engineer to 10 engineers.
I can turn your research into a product: I’ve done this with Yuri, I’ve done this at Microsoft when I was working on a next gen email ranker and a part of speech tagger and I’ve done this at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory when I was setting up their computer security anomaly detection pipeline from scratch
I can setup your entire BI infrastructure and measure what matters: I’ve done this for more than 10 teams at Microsoft. I will help you find and measure the metrics that are most indicative of your product success.
I will also get along with your dev team: I have extensive science and development experience and can tell the difference between realistic work and sci-fi. I have extensive experience with tooling and research in BI, ML, RL and game dev.
Please ask me questions!

Hi, unfortunately my startup was recently impacted by the new economic climate induced by Covid19, and I was recently included in a round of layoffs. I have full stack development experience through most of my 8+ years of development, mostly in Java using Spring boot and either Angular or ReactJS. My latest work for about a year was applied ML using Kubeflow and DVC to transfer learn Tensorflow 1.15 research models for use cases like object detection, pose estimation, and instance segmentation. I would love to continue my pursuit in applied ML but am also interested in software roles that are back end or full stack using Java + Spring boot or Python.
Thank you for reading my post and I hope we can connect soon!

As a network engineer I run my own Cloud network based on in-house Linux servers that I built mostly from scrap parts. https://www.HonestRepair.net
Professionally I have a strong background with managing ERP systems, group policies, active directory, firewalls/routers, security systems, DVRs, PBXs, access controls, PLCs, ect... I can manage basically anything electronic on any operating system. I started off with a career in machine operating and manufacturing and eventually moved up to Production Control. Currently I manage every facet of a complex enterprise network with a healthy dose of DevOps, OpSec, and heavy machine repair sprinkled in for good measure.
I pride myself on wearing a lot of hats. Perhaps my strongest trait is my affinity for learning.
