I am a Senior Engineer looking to join a high-trust, fast-moving startup.

My primary strength is Backend Architecture and Data Engineering (ETL, performance optimization). I am looking to join as a backend engineer first, but as I get settled and familiar with the codebase, I want to expand my scope to contribute to the Frontend and AI side of the product.

I thrive in early-stage environments where I can solve ambiguous problems and ship quickly.

Expert backend developer primarily focused on data engineering, mission critical/low latency/highly available systems, and AWS (certs: https://www.credly.com/users/jon-north.ad78f0c8). Happy to deal with greenfield or legacy or any mix of the two.

I prefer long term contract work, though I’ll help you with smaller things as well. Available for W2 employment only in exceptional cases – if you need a CTO, VP of Eng, or head of infrastructure to help you scale, let’s talk.

Hi, I'm Andrew Trettel. I'm a scientist with a PhD in mechanical engineering looking for any potential opportunities outside of academia and research labs. I am open to many different roles, including being a software developer or data scientist. I have over a decade of experience in scientific research, especially on the numerical side. I have years of experience in writing software for and running large simulations on high-performance computing (HPC) systems. I have also developed software for non-scientific purposes, like creating user interfaces for desktop applications and writing command-line tools. I have years of experience working with large datasets, including the tasks of calculating statistics and developing hypotheses/models/theories from data. I've worn many hats over the years and love learning new and interesting topics.

Hello. I am a Senior backend engineer with 10+ years building Django-based systems and data pipelines.

Most recently, I designed and implemented an LLM-assisted data pipeline that converted security bulletins into actionable intelligence for an enterprise cyber security product.

I enjoy working with Django, previously migrated live auth systems with zero downtime and took SaaS products from prototype to production.

I have founded a startup and grown the business from zero to profitable exit.

I'm seeking a senior backend, data engineering, of founding engineer role at a stable, product-focused company. I'm strong in API design, data modeling, and production AI integrations.

Please reach out if you would like to chat. I look forward to meeting with you.
