SEEKING WORK | Lisbon, Portugal or Remote (originally from New Zealand!) | Full stack -- and I mean full stack, from BIOS-dev to biz-dev :)

I've done a bunch of interesting stuff over the years. Drones, VR, OS development, low level network mobile/server stuff, reverse engineering, large-scale VPN DPI, streaming video, speech-to-text, automatic cloud optimisation, deep tech, etc. If you've got some interesting networking or low-level-system stuff, that'd be fun. But I'm open to all discussions :)

Ping me and we'll talk!

SEEKING WORK | UX/UI & web design

Portfolio: https://www.seanw.org/

Location: Edinburgh, UK and remote (I’m used to time zone differences and async work)

Email: sw@seanw.org

I help startups with the UX/UI and web design of their products. This includes websites, landing pages, screenshots and copywriting, and I can assist with frontend development where needed. My background as a startup founder and full stack developer helps me create practical design solutions that balance usability, aesthetics, development effort and performance. I work to fixed price quotes when projects are self-contained.

---

The best live example of my work is Checkbot (https://www.checkbot.io/), a browser extension that tests websites for SEO, speed and performance problems. The entire project is my own work including coding the extension itself, UX/UI design, website design (the homepage is optimised to load in 0.7 seconds, 0.3MB data transferred), website copy, and website articles on web best practices.
