We're a pre-formed team looking for a product company to join. We've all worked together at Hotjar, and we're pretty good at it! We're a combo of engineering management/backend-dev, product design, and frontend dev, which means we can handle a lot.

What we bring to the table: - Full-stack experience: We can cover everything from back-end architecture to front-end implementation and product design. - Proven collaboration: We've got a history of working well together and delivering results, especially in fast-paced environments. - User-focused approach: We are all about building products that users actually love. - We can help with strategic planning, team structures, and career growth. We also like to automate tasks.

Key points to consider: We're looking to be hired as a team, not individually. We're not a company, just a group of folks who love working together and have a proven track record of success. We want to work at a product-focused company where we can make a real business and user impact.

If you need a team that can hit the ground running and help you grow, get in touch! We’d love to chat about how we can contribute to your success.

I have a PhD in computer engineering, specializing in operations research. I can translate any real-world problem into a mathematical model that can be solved via integer programming, constraint programming, or other methods. I'm the father of four young children, so I'm looking for flexible/remote part-time work. I'm also open to contract work (see my comment in the "Freelancer? Seeking freelancer?" thread for more details).
