SEEKING WORK, British guy based in Europe, REMOTE, working on-premises always possible.

Here are my highlights:

- Reliable. No waiting around for calls or emails; if I'm awake, you can guarantee a fast response.

- Business knowledge. I want your business to succeed, and can share my insights with you, battle-earned over the last 17+ years.

- Technical knowledge. I can turn my hand to pretty much well any technology I'm asked to work with, and am extremely good at quickly tracking down hand-to-find bugs. No more worrying about whether your techie can work on the scarier parts of your project!

- No hand-holding required. I won't waste your time with frivolous questions, and while I'm happy to give daily updates, I can also work well under minimal supervision.

SEEKING WORK - Remote, travel possible depending on location and duration.

Location: North-east UK

What I do: Backend engineer / Sysadmin.

Do you need a backend service to talk to your flashy new web / mobile app?

Does your current build and deployment system give you nightmares about the only dev who understands it falling under a bus?

Need a proof-of-concept for your latest, hard-to-pigeonhole idea?

I do have experience of the full stack (including AngularJS and Coffeescript; see below) but am looking for work primarily involving the back end of the stack, or server admin / reliability / scaling. In previous lives I've run large-scale Debian installations doing devops before it had a name, and been responsible for servers in Antarctica.

Recent work:

* Feasibility study investigating the possiblility of writing custom code to interface with a biometric timeclock (Common Lisp)

* Proof-of-concept hardware development for projects linking the physical and virtual worlds in real time (Arduino, Node.js)

* Project management webapp for construction companies (Rails, AngularJS, Bootstrap)

Buzzwords: Debian, Ubuntu, Chef, AWS, Heroku, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Perl, Common Lisp, Ruby, Go, Arduino / AVR

Tools: Git for version control, Jira for issue tracking, HipChat to keep in touch.

Got something you think is a good fit? Drop me a line at mike -at- lambdafunctions -dot- com
