I am a final year, undergraduate computer science student looking for some holiday work - Possibly continuing throughout the semester.

I have experience in many areas, but have had a focus on web technologies in recent years. My greatest strength is that I have a passion and talent for learning new things. I love what I do and would like to explore new areas, especially to help me to decide what I would like to specialise in.

I have occupied both managerial and programming positions and enjoy it when I can combine the two. I am hard working and apply myself fully to the task(s) at hand. I think outside of the box and continually seek room for improvement. The best place to find out more about my skill set is on my LinkedIn profile:

Skills/Technologies: JavaScript, C, Java, Intel x86/64 assembly, Express, MongoDB, MySQL, PHP, WordPress, SEO, project management

I also welcome anyone who would just like to chat and especially anyone I can learn from. I can be contacted via:

Highly skilled at:

* Django and full-stack web development (8+ years)

* System administration (Debian Developer, etc.)

* Almost any open source work (see https://chris-lamb.co.uk/posts/free-software-activities-in-d... for recent example)

If you are in search of a reputable software developer with a track record of producing high-quality and maintainable code, please get in touch to discuss your needs. As former Technical Architect at Thread.com (YC S12) and Playfire.com I was responsible for two major Django codebases, receiving acclaim from my peers for scaling both the site and the codebase in a maintainable and reliable manner whilst still delivering features at an extremely fast pace.

In addition to significant development on the products themselves, I was sole system administrator, deploying servers and performing low-level diagnostics to investigate performance, security and configuration issues. I also introduced quality assurance tools such as configuration management (Ansible, Salt, cdist), continuous integration/deployment (Jenkins) and code review to detect mistakes and regressions as early as possible.

As a freelancer, I have debugged, designed, and implemented projects in C, C++, Python, Java, Bash/POSIX shell, etc., and I also have assisted technical teams with their infrastructure and architecture so they can deliver better results faster. Native English speaker.

Hey, I'm João! Happy new year! I'm a midlevel iOS developer with 3 years experience (both Objective-C and Swift). Apart from iOS, I also have extensive experience with Python (3 years too), developing back-ends (Node.js, Django, PHP), configuring servers, writing shell scripts and messing around with just about every known database.

I'm currently looking for freelance work (or full-time contractor work for the right company).
