Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (November 2014)

SEEKING WORK - Ottawa, Canada or Remote

I’m a digital product design consultant, able to design and implement my work in Node and Ruby environments (I dual-wield design experience with a computer science background). I have worked with startups like 42, a Y Combinator startup with a glorious testimonial on my site, to flesh out business needs and create UI improvements to meet them.

I’m looking to work with more startups to help improve their businesses. If you want to to take your product from a MVP-looking mess to something that you and your investors can be proud of, let’s work together.

My passion is in building great products that people love.

I am constantly questioning the world around me, asking why things are the way they are, and seeking new ways of delivering great user experiences and sustained business growth.

Most of my work focuses on new, bold, breakthrough innovations that could fundamentally transform the path of a product or even an entire company. Other times I am immersed in quiet, simple ideas - ones that are so small they may have otherwise been missed had it not been for insight and curiosity.

I have over fifteen years of hands-on experience in driving design-driven innovation, delivery of large-scale technology initiatives, and identification of new opportunities for growth and sustainable value. I have been regarded as a thought leader in enterprise technology, product innovation, problem solving, and design thinking.

My key strengths include:

♦ identifying transformation opportunities in business architecture and technical capability

♦ developing and leveraging emerging technologies

♦ evangelizing enterprise-wide change

♦ creating corporate innovation processes and incubation programs

♦ aligning technology teams, business capabilities, and solution development

♦ innovative resourcing/staffing strategies

I am looking for opportunities that leverage my passion for building great products and services, value a hands-on approach to design and use of emerging technology, and build upon my success in helping teams embrace and foster innovation and creativity.
