SEEKING WORK - NYC Metro and Remote

I’m a full stack developer, with a strong design sense, that has worked with small startups and large companies to build iOS, OS X, and web applications. I have proven experience taking products from idea to launch, as well as improving existing products.

I have a knack for learning new languages and frameworks, but I’ve worked with these previously:

- Objective-C and Swift for iOS and OS X

- Ruby (with Rails and Sinatra), PHP, and Node.js on the server side

- Javascript, jQuery, Sass, CoffeeScript, Backbone.js, and Browserify on the front end

SEEKING WORK

Location: Vancouver, Canada

Remote: Yes

I'm a C++ expert with over 15 years professional experience in the games industry (EA, THQ, several smaller independent developers). I have extensive realtime 3D graphics experience as well as expertise in optimization, debugging and console development.

I'm currently working on a Virtual Reality project as I see massive potential for VR over the next few years but I'm interested in remote contracting opportunities up to 50% of my time, particularly in the VR space.

I have experience working on many different platforms and in teams ranging in size from small indie projects to AAA game teams with 100s of members. My background is game development but my expertise in C++, optimization and 3D and GPGPU programming are relevant to a number of non-games applications.

SEEKING FREELANCER

Location: Berlin, Germany

Technologies: Swift, iOS

We, http://www.commercetools.com offer SDKs for the JVM, Node JS and PHP and our e-commerce platform is used for many web shops. With your help, we want to bring it to iOS. Support us to optimize our REST API for mobile use cases and offer a SDK for Swift!

We're looking for a freelancer with lots of iOS knowledge and a good grasp on the Swift ecosystem. I'm a backend dev with some mobile experience, and together with the (web-)SDK devs I want to bring our API to iOS. We've built this before for other ecosystems, and therefore we know it's important to have experience with the ecosystem one is building for (which we are currently lacking).

You will then use the SDK in small demo apps, and you will port an existing app from Obj-C to Swift and the new SDK (basically, throw everything away but the UI ;) ).

All your work will be open-source, developed publicly on GitHub.

We're planning with ~3 months of work currently.

Regarding remote: We'd prefer it if you could spend at least some time in our office (If you're a digital nomad, Berlin is a great city to visit :) )

Feel free to ping me with any questions at christoph.neijenhuis (at) commercetools.de
