My name is Dominik Gruber and I was involved in creating multiple iOS apps that reached No. 1 in the App Store in Austria. On the server-side of things I am mostly interested in Scala and I am currently also organizing the Vienna Scala User Group with over 200 members.
Two things that are very important to me are user experience and performance. Also, I think that code quality matters–a lot.
I am looking to relocate to either San Francisco (and surroundings) or New York.

I'm not interested by anything else so only contact me if you do want to run AS3 on the server side

##What I'm looking for
I'm a developer / data scientist hybrid with a Masters and a background from Wikimedia (Wikipedia). Right now, I'm focusing on learning best practices for software engineering -- with a side of machine learning. With the right team, I'd also love to work on application security, data science, and deep backend/OS development. The most important thing for me is putting roots down, committing to something for the long-haul, and having an enjoyable and stimulating time doing good work with good colleagues.
##A bit more about me:
I founded a technical startup, joined as an early co-founder of another, and most importantly, served as the data scientist and engineer for the fundraising team at Wikimedia. Those banners you sometimes see on Wikipedia asking for money -- I wrote the backend to analyze, collate, validate, and explain the results to the non-technical staff who tested them. Now, for the first time, the Wikimedia Fundraising team has a clean and visually attractive record of the results and lessons of almost every test run since 2010 till this day.

I'm looking for entry-level or junior dev work and a career change from a civil engineering background (land/marine surveying). I am most interested in DevOps and backend. I'm comfortable on the CLI and with vim, tmux, git, ssh, etc. I also have some sysadmin experience.
My goal is to get my foot in the door in this industry with an established company where there are experienced engineers willing to take me under their wing while I improve my skill set in return for me putting in the hard work and the hours. My university work was in the liberal arts (I don't have a CS degree), and I'm determined to do the work necessary—on my own time—to get up to speed with remedial CS and algorithm knowledge on nights and weekends. I have excellent soft skills, and I'm easily in the 99th percentile of English fluency and written communication. If you need good documentation, technical writing, or even web copy, I can definitely help you with that if you're willing to carve out time for me in exchange for helping me improve my programming chops and technical development. Shoot me a message—I'm hungry to level up.

Remote: Yes/Preferred
Willing to relocate: No
Technologies: Ruby, Rails and related tooling. Some experience with Scala.
I am presently looking for new employment as my most recent company laid off all of its remaining employees after becoming insolvent. Given my future situation in terms of next year, I am unable to relocate right now and would strongly prefer remote work.
In my most recent role I worked on the development of a sports statistics API using a combination of Rails for parsing (storing to MongoDB) and Scala for the API with Swagger generating a frontend. I have worked in the past with Rails in a consultancy context. For better or worse I have typically worked on CRUD applications with primarily static content, but am looking for new challenges where I am not necessarily just working on such applications. I have an interest in becoming at least somewhat familiar with various languages, and would be particularly open to roles where I am not using Ruby. Such languages could include any of C#, Java, Scala, Go, or perhaps something else entirely.
I am available to start immediately.
Resume: Please email me.

Remote: sure.
Willing to relocate: No.
Technologies: Python, Cython, C/C++ most recently. Previously Actionscript 2 (very similar to Javascript), .NET (ASP.NET and Windows Forms), various SQLs, and a bit of Photoshop. Small amounts of work in other languages, including Java and Ruby. Familiar with working to coding standards, review, svn/hg/git, and would be much happier in life on a project with unit tests.
Résumé/CV: on Request. Short version: Physics BA/Msci, .NET shop for 2.5 years, Physics PhD.
Email: Website: http://joe-jordan.co.uk (email me joe at that).
My PhD finishes on 31st December this year, and I'm currently attending interviews in and around Cambridge. I have worked on Windows Mac and Linux, get most excited when I'm learning some new technology, and am looking for something with real-world impact after a dry 4 years in academia. Have written for Linux Format magazine, too, including a Gentoo installation tutorial.
During my PhD I invented a new computation geometry algorithm - debugging my work involved writing PyOpenGL code in order to see things in 3D, as well as learning a load of graph theory. I'd love to find something to do with these topics as a job, although I won't do anything related to weapons (ruling out a fair few physics/geometry coding roles, it seems.)
I also get really excited about languages and making code run faster; I enjoyed being allowed to care about that stuff during my PhD.

I'm a generalist currently working for a small IT-consulting agency but planning to start freelancing from January, 2015, or if you have a really, really cool full time job, we can talk about that, too, hence my post here.
I solve problems and can learn whatever you throw at me really fast. Contact me if you need someone like that.
I've spent the last year or so doing mostly sysadmin and networking stuff among a crazy amount of Windows servers and Cisco routers. Before that, I've done all kinds of IT-stuff for translation agencies, from custom e-mail servers through integration CAT tools into their Project Management systems to building in-house .NET applications.
Volunteered a few months working out performance issues in a huge Rails 3 app two years ago, caching, mysql tweaks etc. Made an app entirely in client-side JS with the local public transportation's API because, well, why not. (http://github.com/KTamas/nasta)

About me:
I have a B.Sc. degree with a major in computer science from the University of British Columbia. I did plenty of elective credits in mathematics, physics and philosophy - mostly the philosophy of logic.
I'm constantly investigating new languages and technologies. I have played around with languages like Go, Rust, D, LISP-like languages, and Lua. I pay attention to language standardization and development such as C++14/17, C# 6, ECMAScript 6, Rust heading towards 1.0, Go through 1.4 and beyond, and others. I sometimes investigate the implementation of languages like Ruby, C#, Rust, Python, and JavaScript.
I have made code available on my website and on github. I program for fun whenever I have a scratch to itch.
