SEEKING WORK | local or REMOTE

Contract, part-time, technical co-founder

Location: Africa or REMOTE

Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where I can get the necessary permission to live and work.

Technologies: Linux, Fullstack, System Administration.

Résumé/CV: on request (software development, CTO, mentoring, training, fluent in English and German)

Contact Email: see profile or http://codingforafrica.at/

Like this Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so I am in the process to relocate to Africa.

While I could find a job elsewhere I believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location I am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.

I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and I am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.

I am also open to work for companies anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.

In addition, my plan to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. If you want to support this, I would love to work with you. Also if you are interested in hiring African developers yourself. I can help you build up your team.

SEEKING WORK | Northern California, USA | Remote OK

I'd like to get back into tech. Half-time would be great, seeking long term relationships / repeat customers. I have a co-working space and regular schedule at my current job. Last few roles were:

* founding engineer on a distributed ledger (block chain) startup,

* Node engineer at a chat startup,

* Java engineer at a hospitality reservation post-IPO corp.,

* R&D engineer at a series B SaaS startup (5-9 DevOp/SRE, Clojoure, Node, D3), and

* front end engineer at a pre-acquisition B2C startup.

I've been out since 2016 working customer service, kitchen and various labor jobs in the Bay Area. I've been described by a manager last Summer as "reliable and easy to work with." I have a Computer Science degree from University of Minnesota (2011, B.Sci, 3.9 major/3.6 overall GPAs).

Thanks for reading.

SEEKING WORK - Portland, OR or Remote

I'm a full-stack developer with 20+ years experience. My specialties are deep Postgres consulting, web development in Rails/Django, and devops with Kubernetes, AWS, Azure, Terraform, Ansible, etc. From time to time I've done projects in Javascript/Typescript (React, Vue, Angular, Node), Java, C#, C, Go, Rust, Elixir, Perl, etc.

I am reliable, easy to work with, quick to turn things around, and a good communicator. I can work solo or on a team, either as lead or a team member. I value client satisfaction as highly as technical excellence.

You can see some of my recent work here:

I'm a Software Engineer with ~13 years of experience. I've worked across a fair few stacks at this point but have a fair amount of experience in Python & JavaScript, not to mention general DevOps stuff. I've also worked across a few different roles, from Lead Dev to Engineering Manager.

I'm currently back to the UK after nomading around Southeast Asia and am keen to find some contract/freelance/consulting work. I'm pretty flexible with what I'm looking for in all honesty, my main want is to help solve problems and write some great code.
