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

Location: North-east UK

What I do: CTO for small business / non-technical entrepreneurs

In the past I've run large-scale Debian installations doing devops before it had a name, and been responsible for servers in Antarctica. I have experience with a wide range of different Unix tools and technologies, at various levels of the stack. This gives me the ability—and the perspective—to pick the best combination of tools for any particular project, rather than simply treating everything as a nail because all I have is a hammer.

I specialise in working with non-technical entrepreneurs and providing a "CTO-as-a-service.” I take care of the technical side end-to-end, leaving you free to work on your business, rather than worrying about servers and databases.

Previous work:

* School data processing app (Elixir/Phoenix, PostgreSQL)

* Custom data dashboards (R, Geckoboard)

* High-reliability, long-term timelapse platform for inaccessible locations. (FreeBSD, Arduino, Python, Shell)

* Migration of existing Node.js+Firebase service to Golang+PostgreSQL on AWS

* 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, AWS, PostgreSQL, Perl, Common Lisp, Ruby, Go, Arduino / AVR, Elixir / Phoenix, FreeBSD

=================================================

I've been a freelancer 4 out of 6 years. I've mostly built web and desktop applications, and a bit less mobile ones. Data science/big data/machine learning and cyber security are areas that interest me as well.

I'm up for freelance/remote jobs, preferably, big and long-term.

Conversion Rate Optimization for E-commerce and SaaS Companies

-------------------------------------------------------------

We're a conversion optimization consultancy (see https://2xcd.com/) where we specialize in:

- UX analysis and usage audits,

- CRO focused redesigns, and

- fully managed A/B testing campaigns

Our services are best suited for growth stage companies with at least $300k ARR and 20k monthly visitors.

We take pride in creating designs that pay for themselves. Our biggest win thus far was helping one of our clients double their MRR to $400k/month through split tests, landing page optimizations, and improving their return on ad spend in about 8 weeks.

We've helped companies big and small--SaaS companies with millions of users, venture-backed companies, 500 Startup alums, "traditional" online businesses. Chances are, we can help you reach your business goals too.

I have a background in usability research and UX design (12+ years) and my partner is a generalist that leads growth at our SaaS company. We're both technical (both: front-end, plus, I work with Rails + Angular) and are current with growth practices. We run the largest growth hacker's meet up in our city and meet with local experts regularly.

If you're interested in working together, I'm at john at 2xcd.com.

Looking forward to chatting!
