SEEKING WORK - REMOTE (based in Georgia, USA)

Embedded / Linux / Rust

I have experience developing and integrating embedded software (ARM, x86, MIPS), including bare-metal, RTOS, and Linux systems. Focus has generally been on the platform (bootloaders, device drivers, and toolchain/rootfs) and HAL, but I've done some application-level code as well.

I've used Linux personally since the 2.2 days, run my own servers, and enjoy applying embedded software principles to cloud infrastructure. I'd be very happy to expand into more DevOps or System Administration work, even on a part-time or trial basis.

SEEKING WORK - Remote or based in SW Ontario, Canada

LinkedIn: http://ca.linkedin.com/in/zamkhan

Recent client: "As an academic entrepreneur, I have engaged in a number of out-sourcing processes and truth be told, _kohanz_ was one of the few that I would still continue working with. He is skillful, honest and up front, knows what he is doing and does his job very quickly and within the time frame promised at the beginning."

Experienced (10+ years) developer of software for medical devices and scientific applications, many with an imaging component. Have architected and led teams to deliver on software for systems in both diagnostic and interventional contexts. Comfortable working in an FDA-regulated & ISO 13485 compliant quality system.

I excel at iterating research or early-stage prototypes (e.g. MATLAB developed by researchers) into commercial-grade software ready to impress the right audience (clinicians, investors, etc.).

Developing scientific applications involves a high degree of uncertainty and requires an engineer that actively participates in all phases of the SDLC (e.g. requirements gathering, risk analysis, etc.). My ability to communicate has always led to my role as the technical point of contact for researchers, clinicians (surgeons, radiologists, etc.), and senior executives.

One of my current freelance projects is creating an automated trading platform for forex and equity markets through a well-known online broker.

Outside of the medical domain, my development projects have included an automated stock-trading engine (including backtesting suite) and various sports analytics software solutions. Technical keywords: C++, C#, Java, Matlab, VTK, ITK, OpenCV, LabView, Rails, R, Python, and more.

SEEKING WORK - training and mentoring (on-site or remote)

I teach Python, PostgreSQL, Git, and Ruby to companies around the world. If your company has engineers who need to level up quickly in one or more of these technologies, then I can provide on-site or online training, as part of a formal class, or in a less-structured mentoring capacity.

Among my many repeat customers are Apple, Autodesk, Cisco, EMC, HP, SANDisk, and VMWare. I live and work in Israel, but have taught in-person and online for companies in the US, Europe, Israel, and China.

My background: I am a full-stack Web developer (since 1993) and an independent consultant (since 1995). I set up one of the 100 Web sites in the world, write the monthly Web technology column for Linux Journal, and have a PhD in Learning Sciences (which I use to improve my training). I'm also a panelist on the weekly "Freelancers Show" podcast, the curator of http://DailyTechVideo.com/, and the editor of http://MandarinWeekly.com/.

My ebook, "Practice Makes Python" (http://lerner.co.il/practice-makes-python), gives Python developers a chance to improve their skills after taking a course, but before embarking on real-world projects.

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. You can also read more about me at http://lerner.co.il/ , and on my blog at http://blog.lerner.co.il/ .
