SEEKING WORK, remote or shorter on-site gigs. I'm based in Minneapolis.

I like solving hard problems. The point of computers is making life as a human easier, and my favorite thing is taking something complicated and difficult and making it simple, working, inutitive, powerful.

In the past I worked for a Big Finance Company, wrangling Enterprise Java and big databases, making complicated business rules tractable with domain-specific languages, and turning systems into performant and consistent versions of their former selves. I know a few different languages but am best with Java and Clojure.

Here's my current pet project, a context-free grammar parser with an intuitive front-end: https://github.com/eightnotrump/clearley

SEEKING WORK - Remote (based in Switzerland, travel okay)

I'm a DevOps engineer working on my own cloud/infrastructure product and bootstrap it by doing infrastructure consulting, engineering and maintenance. You can focus on your product development and I'll setup and maintain your cloud infrastructure depending on your requirements.

For the last four years I worked for one of Switzerland's biggest websites in different roles: as Java and Ruby/Rails developer, as DevOps setting up the Rails infrastructure and as the product manager of the website. Previously I had my own start up. My knowledge is very broad and I can certainly understand your requirements and deliver a pragmatic solution.

Skills:

  * Puppet, Chef, Capistrano
  * AWS, Heroku
  * Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, OSX
  * Nginx, Apache
  * Load balancing and redundant data center setup
  * MySQL, MongoDB, Redis
  * Ruby, Python, PHP

Would love to get in contact with interested start ups/companies. Please email me on kwd@gmx.ch
