I keep a personal blog, and my articles often appears on HN. I commission custom cartoons for my blog posts.[0]
The blog’s previous cartoonist worked with me for six years. She recently changed careers, so I’m looking for someone who can take over as the blog’s official cartoonist.
I'll pay your hourly rate, but I'm aiming to pay about $75 per illustration on average.

Ex-FAANG. I've spent my recent career leading engineering teams of 10+ to ship world class products. Expertise in managing product timelines, overseeing architectural design/implementation, & keeping companies ahead of their competition. As an IC, I love to dig deep into technical problems, ship products with full autonomy/ownership, and make products look beautiful (see some old work at www.beaver.digital).
I have been getting wonderful offers from great companies but am still on the job market because I suffer from an unfortunate health condition that makes my sleep rather erratic. My working efficiency is still exceptional, energy levels are great, and my output is the best it’s ever been, but I sometimes start work as late as 10:30am pst which is unacceptable for most companies. Anyways, if this won’t be a problem for your team I’m happy to hear from you. I’ll be happy to make accommodations for you if you’re willing to make this one for me.
I'm excited to hear from you! :)

I am a 20+ year experienced developer.
Most of my work has involved embedded development (Linux, RTOS, baremetal, C/C++/uPython), including various forms of networking and distributed systems, audio/video, as well as backend services (usually using Python, Django, and Go), deployments (AWS, DO, Ansible, Docker, etc). I also do iOS and Android development. I do some frontend work, but that isn't my specialty.
I love helping people develop new products to meet their goals and needs, especially with a focus for getting it in use and making money as soon as possible to demonstrate utility and make money. I also have extensive experience taking over existing legacy code bases.
I am available for part-time or full-time contract work, long-term or short-term. I would love for every project to turn into a lasting business relationship.

I am a one-person-army software engineer with 23 years of intensive experience in different fields. I am currently running a small software startup, Launch Platform (https://launchplatform.com/). I spent time on the side taking contracting jobs. Recently, I have extra contracting bandwidth available, and I am currently looking for a new client.
I provide a special kind of software development service: a one-stop, high-quality, rapid software development service to my clients. I can build products from end to end, be it frontend, backend, mobile, data, security, or DevOps, with a team or by myself, with a proven track record. A good example would be I built three SaaS products listed on my company's website by myself. I usually only recommend that my client hire me if the project is high-impact and involves many ends (backend, frontend, mobile, etc.). It will be way more expensive and slower if you hire and manage each role.

What I do: Senior backend dev / tech lead / fractional CTO
Are you being held back by a constraining architecture, slow backend, or a team lacking the depth of experience you need for the next stage of your growth?
Most recently CTO of a regtech startup, I've spent the past 20+ years in a wide variety of tech roles building both products and teams, giving me the perspective to get your project moving without being bound to a particular language or stack.
