SEEKING WORK [Remote]- Friendly bilingual Rails/MVC4/.NET/Go Engineer

UX/Software Engineer that primarily works with Ruby on Rails 4 and ASP.Net MVC4 (C#).

I'm an ex-pat from Boston, living in the heart of South America for the past 9 years, in Bolivia.

My main talents lie in Ruby on Rails development. I take pride in building fast, insanely optimised websites using the latest proven tools in the Rails world including Sentry, NewRelic-rpm, Bullet and RSpec.

I enjoy making responsive websites using Twitter Bootstrap 3 or Foundation Zurb, I'm great with front end work.

I also leverage Go to build highly concurrent, well-tested system services and backend processes.

Experience deploying to Heroku, AWS, Rackspace, DigitalOcean. I leverage open source tools such as Capistrano to assist deploys.

I invest heavily in research material and training books in order to keep up with current standards and emerging practices. All of this helps me be on the edge, making sure your software is built the best possible way using proven methods.

My forté is taking wishy-washy requirements and fleshing them out into robust problem solving software. My job here is to add value to your business - to save you time and frustration, keeping you attention on the important things.

SEEKING WORK - Israel and Chicago, but generally work remotely

I've been a full-stack Web developer since 1993, when I set up one of the first 100 Web sites in the world (http://tech.mit.edu/). I've been working as a consultant since 1995. I have extensive experience with Ruby (and Rails), Python, PostgreSQL, JavaScript, and many other technologies.

My real value isn't my extensive technological know-how. Rather, it's my ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical people, and to turn that communication into business value.

I know how to take business needs and turn them into software, by myself and with others. I also know how to describe technical issues in terms that business people can understand, that allow us to make informed decisions. Many of my clients have used me as a remote, part-time CTO or lead developer.

I also help developers and teams improve their coding and management practices. I frequently teach in-person courses (in the US, Europe, Israel, and China) in Python, Ruby/Rails, PostgreSQL, and Git to such companies as Apple, Cisco, Freescale, HP, SANDisk, and VMWare. I also offer online coaching/pairing services to individuals and teams.

My aim: Long-term, interesting projects with nice people. (Short-term relationships can also be fine, depending on the work and myschedule.) Bottom line, I like to speak with and help nice people, and feel privileged that my work lets me do so.

If I can be of help to you or your company, contact me at reuven@lerner.co.il, or on Skype as "reuvenlerner". You can also read more about me at http://lerner.co.il/ .

SEEKING WORK - Remote - Long or Short Term Consultation

I am a Product Designer (Interaction Design/UI/UX). I have experience relevant to products from iOS & Android to Large Web Platforms. I typically consult on or perform the following:

- Product management - strategy, best practices, team building, implementation.

- Product design - strategy, best practices, team building, process, interaction design, ui design, iconography.

- Front end dev - I tend to build most things I spec at the very least to a minimum in which there is no chance of fidelity loss from prototype to final product. I've also setup processes for growing teams and established best practices for new hires.

- iOS design/dev

SEEKING WORK - SF Bay Area or remote

Currently available for freelance web app engineering work. I've been working with Rails and JS for ~7 years now, at all points up and down the stack. Everything from performance work on existing code to bringing up a full-fledged product from wireframes.

In the past, I've worked with companies like Leap Motion, Anki, Rocket Fuel, and TaskRabbit. Before that, I had two startups of my own. In my spare time, I fly airplanes.

Looking for 10-20 hour per week engagements only right now.
