SEEKING WORK - REMOTE Building a startup as a non-technical founder is like playing on hard mode.

You've got no shortage of vision, but you can't build that vision yourself. Getting it built means entering the world of Nerds.

As someone who doesn't speak the language of Tech, interfacing with that world can be exhausting. You can spend hours digesting the jargon & buzzwords. But that's time you could spend doing what matters most to any founder:

Growing your business.

I help non-technical founders manage their tech so they can focus on growth.

If you’re going to succeed as a non-technical founder, you need someone who can help you navigate the world of Nerds. Someone who can take your vision and turn it into something designers & developers can execute. A team of Nerds who helps you lean into your strengths as a non-technical founder, letting you focus on your business while they stack the bricks.

You can learn more about that team at https://NoNerds.com

Here's what our clients say about us:

“We’ve got more done in the last 4 hours than Sam and I have achieved in the past couple of weeks.” - Eric Menna, cofounder https://getloper.com

“We’ve had ideas flowing for so many months—now that we finally get to put them on paper it feels good.” - Mason Still, cofounder https://theblueverse.com

“Going back to the overall process, I am really enjoying it and and think that its 100% with the cost. Now that we're in it I can't imagine how it could've gone any other way." - Sachin Gulaya, CEO https://alpinevapor.com/

SEEKING WORK - Freelance/Contract, Remote, Tennessee, U.S. (Central Time)

I'm a full-stack JavaScript developer and UI designer. I run https://cheatcode.co, working primarily with my own framework, Joystick (https://github.com/cheatcode/joystick), as well as React.js, GraphQL, and Node.js.

Looking for 3-6 month freelance and contract opportunities (longer if the timing makes sense). Best suited for working with small teams—startups/standalone or embedded in bigger co's—and individuals looking to ship:

- Full-stack web apps (internal or customer-facing).

- UI implementation (HTML, CSS, any JS framework)

- Command line tools

- REST APIs (private and public) -- can do GraphQL APIs on request

- Technical documentation

- Infrastructure/deployment setup (Bare metal, Docker/k8s, Lambda)

My working style:

- Communication-heavy. I prefer clients/projects that don't shy away from investing in getting everything on the table up front and keeping communication tight throughout a project. 1-on-1 preferred for clarity/avoiding miscommunication.

- Detail-oriented. If it needs to be done well, I'm your guy.

- Design-focused. I put an emphasis on UX (or DX if the project is for devs) and ensuring that what gets shipped is most likely to generate a ROI for you. I'm not your guy if you want a fast-and-cheap result (https://youtu.be/eAo8gnUCWzE?t=20).
