SEEKING WORK Location: PK/Remote Remote: Yes

I won't waste much of your time writing about it. I’ll just say that I am a backend developer who uses Python and PHP to automate various tasks and business processes. I create AI-based chatbots, AI/LLM-based automation systems, web scrapers, ETLs, and other types of bots (such as Discord, Telegram, Slack, etc.). For example, at the company I work with, I developed a GPT Assistant-based chatbot using the Voiceflow framework. This chatbot responds to queries in a human-like manner and captures lead-related information. The captured information is then used to create a contact in GoHighLevel (GHL), and the entire chat transcript, along with the newly created contact information, is sent to a Slack channel.

SEEKING WORK | USA | REMOTE

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'm seeking to work with Rust (which I know well and am quite good at its advanced features).

I have 8 years of full-time professional experience (in addition to further experience).

I'm skilled at foreseeing how APIs should balance simplicity with flexible capability and what should be exposed or not, as appropriate for the level of the layer at hand. I enjoy using my lower-level knowledge to improve higher-level usage. I'm excellent at making clean, robust, maintainable code with great comments, and at doing debugging, research, and reviewing. I'm good at figuring-out and fixing complex bugs in multithreading. I've both maintained codebases as well as designed and implemented high-reliability high-performance parts, and so I know how to make the various aspects correct the first time.
