20+ years of experience building and deploying web apps mostly as a contract worker but have FT experience too. I've worked with solo developers to 9 figure businesses.

For the last ~10 years I've focused a lot on deployment and infrastructure / SRE / platform type of work to create pipelines and solutions to help developers build and deploy things faster and more reliably without cutting corners on security or quality control. This includes fully building out and managing cloud infrastructure to run an assortment of applications both on 1 server with Docker Compose to scaling Kubernetes clusters.

I've built a few SAAS apps with Flask and Rails and understand the expected surrounding tech / knowledge around building, scaling, debugging and profiling database driven web apps. I have a preference for doing infrastructure related work but I consider myself a developer at heart.

I'm comfortable working alone or with a team and have a lot of experience chatting with vendors, giving demos, etc. and I never want to stop getting my hands dirty when it comes to writing code and implementing things. I've also written over a million words worth of technical documentation and blog posts, recorded hundreds of technical videos, have over 100+ episodes recoded in a technical podcast and created / maintain a number of ~1k+ star open source projects.

    Email: hn811{at}padolsey.net
Engineer and Author with 17+ years’ experience. In the past I worked at companies like Stripe, Facebook, Twitter, Guardian. I am now focusing more of my work towards projects that use Generative AI: building proofs-of-concept, doing independent research, and working with organizations who are cautiously exploring. I love working on UX and frontend engineering too. I wrote and had published a book on JavaScript, so really any project that uses it or TypeScript is right down my alley. I’m only able to remote, part time, and on Asian timezones at the moment. You can see more of my work at https://j11y.io and my cv at https://j11y.io/cv
