I'm an experienced software engineer with a background in computer graphics and a knack for the areas where software development connects with psychology (e.g. designing learnable/efficient UIs, effective communication). I've built a few things you might recognize from Hacker News (see my portfolio linked above).

I'm primarily looking for two categories of work (but by all means, feel free to propose something else!)

1) Remote contract work related to computer graphics, computational geometry, or what I'd call "deep interaction problems" (see my work on novel developer tools for examples).

2) Working with small groups of people to build interesting software. If I found the right team and the right project, I'd be willing to relocate (especially to NYC, Chicago, maybe Seattle—but open to anywhere, definitely doesn't have to be a big city). Very briefly, the 'right team' is: competent, excited by what they're working on, and friendly/sociable. The right project is mostly just something original, either technically or in how it could affect the world (most every SV startup supposedly 'changing the world' for the 'better' is not going to pass my filter for this: I mean for real. That said, just 'non-evil' is sufficient if the project is interesting in a technical sense).

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies/skills: Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, Node.js, Elixir and Phoenix, SQL and Postgres, Functional programming, Serverless Framework, REST API design, Docker, Git and Github, HTML5, CSS, React, Hyperapp
