Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (May 2013)

http://codetheory.in/resume/

We are looking for a person/team who can develop an e-commerce website from scratch for a line of Brazilian childrens' clothes. We have a local (Brazilian) brand and want to offer our customers a world class online shopping experience.

The site will need to have the standard set of e-commerce functionalities that US online shoppers are familiar with. We are thinking of something similar to www.gymboree.com, but on a smaller scale--initially only in the low hundreds of items for sale.

Some of the desired functionality includes:

--"completing the look" (suggesting matching pieces) --"you might like..." (based on what the customer has seen or purchased) --"other customers who bought this also bought" --sort by age, collection, size, category (dresses, pants, etc.), etc. --high quality product photos with zoom --shopping cart, payment processing, etc. --smooth, attractive and intuitive user interface.

The key is to replicate the world class e-commerce experience (especially for apparel) that is available to US shoppers and to make it available to our customers in Brazil.

If interested, please send me a short proposal, including estimated time to completion and ballpark price. Obviously this would just be to establish a general order of magnitude and would not be a binding commitment. Happy to discuss further.

I have been shipping software for more than 10 years now, and love building high-quality products (or at least try my best for it!). I started freelancing a few months ago after my stint as a single founder. One of my first clients was a HN member for whom I did remote contract work for almost a couple of months.

I am proficient with Ruby on Rails and generally quite adept at picking up new technologies as per the needs of the product. I call myself a generalist, and if you are a non-technical person, I can handle most of the things for you that go in to building & launching a software product (including screen flows, server-side programming, system administration, analytics & a little bit of digital marketing.)

My last consulting assignment was related to conversion optimization(s) and driving growth for a startup in the education domain. I am up for any work that is challenging & stimulating.

References from previous clients are available on request.

Please see my profile for the contact & other relevant information. Just drop a line to say hello, it's always good to interact with fellow HN members!

I built and run http://jsonip.com. 10+ million requests a day and counting.

I also created Helium-css, https://github.com/geuis/helium-css.

I'm a javascript engineer mainly these days. Most of the work I've done for the last year or two has ranged from Node.js on the server to heavy client-side javascript.

I have a heavy node.js background, as well as a solid amount of practical working experience with Python/Django.

I also have a lot of client-side experience when talking about html5, advanced css3 features, mobile optimization, etc, and years of building quality code that even works well in browsers like IE6+.

I'm open to a wide range of contract work, whether it be small term to big projects.

Resume available on request.
