#2I specialize in systems engineering and performance optimization. I can help you:
* handle big data without building an expensive distributed system
* replace complex hand-coded data pipelines with simple declarative languages
* improve response times and reduce server expenses for your web service
* use web assembly to speed up hotspots in your web app
* train your team in Rust or Julia
"Jamie is a first principles thinker with a deep understanding of systems and algorithms. He is fearless in the way he approaches problems. Jamie’s research on staged compilation saved our team many person years of effort, and his training and support was crucial to our adoption of Julia. I hope to have the opportunity to work with him again soon."
-- Molham Aref, CEO, RelationalAI
"Jamie brought a degree of rigor and theoretical knowledge that took the company to places we never could've gone otherwise. From exploring the implications of language semantics to building high performance database engines, he didn't just help us get things done, he helped us get them done right. As a result, we were able to explore in weeks what could've easily taken years."
-- Chris Granger, CEO, Eve
"Jamie took over the latexsearch engine, our most technically challenging project to date, and turned it from a foundering prototype into a successful service with over 200k users. His engine required only one small server and ran uninterrupted for over 5 years with no errors."
-- Brian Bishop, VP Platform Development, Springer

#4I'm a full stack developer. For the last 3 years I've been working full-time on my one-man startup Saber (https://www.saberfeedback.com) however I'm now looking to get back into freelancing.
I mainly work in Ruby on Rails, EmberJS, Javascript, PHP, WordPress and CodeIgniter.

#5I'm a full-stack developer with 18 years experience. My specialties are Rails, Postgres and Chef/AWS. I'm also very comfortable in Angular, Vue, React, Java, and Python (lots of projects in Django, Flask, and CLI tools for DevOps and ML). I've made modest contributions to Rails, Postgres, and lots of other OSS projects.
At the low level I've done paid work writing custom Postgres extensions with C and SIMD CPU instructions and implementing performance-critical network services with Rust. At the high level I can design and wireframe features, show their business value, talk to customers, lead other developers, mentor, consult on application architecture, and advise on scaling/performance. You don't want me to pick your color scheme though. :-)
I am reliable, easy to work with, quick to turn things around, and a good communicator. I can work solo or on a team, either as lead or a team member. I value client satisfaction as highly as technical excellence.
