Location: London, United Kingdom

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Yes [, within reason.]

Technologies: C#, Python, System Administration, Linux System Administration, JS, VM Management, Cloudflare Workers, whilst eager to learn other technologies.

Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dneiroukh

Email: dnairoukh at thezest dot dev

I'm Diab Neiroukh. I'm a student who has taken a year out and is looking for work (part or full-time) during such; I'm also happy to continue on with any full-time work as part-time through into my studies [provided the hours are reasonable]. I study a joint major of Computing Science and Physics (as a BSc).

I've had at least three years of experience managing Linux servers, and once set up a Windows network for a local, private school. I know C#, JS, and Python [the latter more so] but am adaptable to other languages (see my work in C on Android/Linux kernels, and brief Java usage on other Android projects) and would be open to work as a Junior Developer/Software Engineer. I also maintain a fork of NGINX aiming to improve performance [and security] of the web server called Zestginx [1].

I've also dabbled in many different areas outside of the above (from audio signal processing to compilers and assembly to graphics design) a few of which are visible on my GitHub [2] and GitHub Gists [3]. This allows me to often give a unique view on topics using knowledge from other "departments".

I made https://brow.sh, a text-based web browser that's been on HN a few times. Making connections with like-minded people is just as important as the money. Looking more for short-term or part-time.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

You can click on the post time next to their name and 'vouch' for them, which will un-dead their comment. I've done so for that one. Looking at their comment and submission history, everything is marked [dead]. Their only thread participation has been in these hiring posts, and an 'Ask HN' where they were lamenting being a software developer in Kenya. How does HN track this stuff? Maybe they've made some comments so…

It looks like I don't have that option. Here's another dead one that shouldn't be: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30168888 For me, the top line reads > Motheki 47 minutes ago [dead] | prev | next [–] Perhaps you can vouch for that one?

That's weird. Looks like someone else did it though.

I run a small product dev agency where we build products and teams for early and growth stage startups.

Last year, my team and I built

- v1 for a new well funded private venture investing platform

- core platform for a marketing service/saas startup

- saas productivity tool for a funded govtech startup

Over the past year, I've also been helping a Series A startup in a fractional CTO capacity.

What I/we do: v1 product building, help with hiring a team (recruiting), fractional CTO work.

  Location: Bay area/Remote
  Tech: Rails, React/Next, Node/Express/Prisma/Nest, AWS, GCloud, CTO/Eng/Product consulting
