Post by c0m »

I've spent the last two years very successfully trading and I am interested in a career where I need to think like this. I've written a comprehensive blog on what I did in lieu of a CV, as it's more interesting and tells you more about who I am and how I think.

I'm expanding my skillset from just programming and trading to include generative AI, currently making a mentoring companion to language learning. I've got strong soft skills from years working in care. I'm seeking junior trading roles or internships, or a similar career where risk is thought about a lot.

  Location: Ireland
  Remote: No preference

Lately I have 2 side projects in free time: building an educational sim (in Golang) about dire threats to democracy & climate (along with possible fixes); and writing a book on performance & scalability (in public view in my GitHub).

Technologies: Pixel-perfect mockups, mobile app design, user interface (UI) design, responsive front-end web development

Résumé/CV: https://dillonbrown.me/resume.pdf

Portfolio/Website: https://dillonbrown.me

Hello, my name is Dillon and I want to help you create cool stuff. I'm looking for UI and UX positions, as well as junior web development work.

I'm really into usability, especially when it comes to designing app interfaces. I like making people's lives a little easier with the skills I have. I'm always thinking about how technology can be improved and how people interact with it.

User interface design is my passion and I can do some basic front-end web development. Plain old HTML and CSS are my tools of choice. I can hack together some JavaScript given enough time. By far the most impressive JavaScript I have cobbled together is for an open-source web app I built as a passion project, which can be seen here [1]. Please take a look at my portfolio [2] to see some of my favorite projects.
