SEEKING WORK, San Francisco, Remote ok

Hi, I run such projects as http://jsonip.com and Helium-css, https://github.com/geuis/helium-css.

Currently looking for short or long term contracts.

Primary languages are javascript and python, with a history in php and a little bit of Objective-c. I have experience with many of the common client-side frameworks like Backbone, Knockout, etc.

I work with all levels of the stack, though my specialties are in client-side javascript and css and with js on the server with node.js.

As an example, jsonip.com is a node.js app that supports over 10 million requests a day. I custom-build most of my servers and have setup applications on AWS and other VPS hosting providers. Building servers from scratch is not a specialty, but I know how to jump in and get things done

SEEKING WORK - Washington D.C or remote

It's more about the project and less about the technology stack (although it would take a hell of a project to get me back on .NET). I worked as CTO for a small web studio as it went from four people to twelve. I've been running my own freelance shop for nearly two years. I can supplement or lead a tech team.

SEEKING WORK - Remote with occasional travel within Europe

I'm an experienced (10+ years) software engineer looking for interesting new project work.

On client projects I've mostly done Java backend work. For my side projects I'm using Python with Django or Flask. I'm also happy to do front-end work using HTML5, CSS, Jquery etc.

Recently I got hooked on functional programming dabbling with Scala and Clojure and would love some work in that area.

More info here: http://goo.gl/rF6GMi and email in profile. I'm based in Madrid, Spain and speak English, German and Spanish

Hi i am User interface designer with 5 years of experience, i create very customized and user friendly interfaces, i do html, css, Js and bootstrap frame work as well, if you are interested please visit my website http://www.sarath.biz or drop a mail at sarudsgnr@gmail.com, My charges are pretty affordable :)

Hey there. I thought i'd be the person to point out since it seems like no one else has. I suspect you were downvoted because you didn't follow syntax.

See the rules at the top about listing whether you are seeking work or not, which should go something like

[SEEKING WORK] User Interface Designer, 5 Years experience.

Also, probably best to explain further about what you do, and why people should hire you before asking them to visit your site.

This criticism is well-intended, so please don't take it the wrong way. You seem pretty talented. I wouldn't want to see that go to waste. :)

SEEKING FREELANCER - LaTeX nerd, remote is fine (I'm based in the UK)

I've been tearing my hair our with a LaTeX template generator and builder. I need help, while I still have some small coverage of my head. I'm looking for someone who knows their way around LaTeX, especially if they have worked with complex nested tabular layouts, UTF8 issues, and so on.

Email me at dave@addedbytes.com for more details.
