My last project included designing and implementing the migration of a large government service from CloudFoundry to AWS and everything that came along with it (security, monitoring, deployments, load testing, traffic migration strategies, etc)

Email: Present in the links above, or my username at gmail dotcom and put [HN] in the subject line. Verbatim emails on this thread are routinely harvested for spamming purposes. Don't post yours here.

Technologies: Are listed on my resume and gravitate around fullstack/frontend. To get past bad filters, I enumerate TypeScript React Python Scala Elixir Tailwind Linux Node Kotlin Android Docker Git C++ COBOL (just kidding) aaand PostgreSQL. I'm messing with Svelte, ktor.io, DaggerCI and ArgoCD in a current role.

Seeking: Series B -ish, 20-50 headcount-ish, bonus points for work in Health, Education, or Environmental sectors. NO fintech, NO martech, and if you are still reading, have a wonderful day and make a stranger smile.

Hi,

I have over 20 years in the industry starting out as a Linux SysAdmin / Network Engineer and now doing more Systems / Low level Programming, R&D, and occasional DevOps.

Looking for opportunities involving low level / embedded systems / backend software development. Happy to also do automation / SysAdmin / DevOps as well. Although not my forte, I like to do robust automated testing / QA for software to ensure they meet (potentially undocumented) requirements.
