SEEKING WORK - Remote with up to 50% travel (I'm based in Europe, but can work EST working hours).
I am a full web stack engineer with 12 years professional experience. I recently worked as CTO & Product Director at a small startup. Previously, I worked as Lead Software Developer at a mid-size company (sold for 9 digits at that time). I am happy with similar position as my last one or with 100% hands-on technical role as senior software developer.
I have lot of experience with various projects. I worked on web applications, enterprise intranet software, social websites, and so on. I am great in both solving little but tough problems and designing and implementing architectures using physical and cloud based servers, SQL and NoSQL databases, integrating various APIs, architecting applications to work under significant load and ensuring following patterns and best practices. My only drawback is that most of my backend experience is in PHP which is not that popular among HNers these days. But I learn quick and I'm always hungry for new experiences and knowledge. I have lot of experience in leading and coaching small teams, including remote/distributed teams, and leading projects.
In the last three years I started working on UX and interfaces, designing products, not only developing them. If you don't have resources for dedicated UX/UI person, I'm your go-to guy and can connect graphics designers with developers to build a great product.
I'm seeking remote or partly remote freelance or permanent work between 4h/wk and full-time. For full-time, I'm happy to travel worldwide as long as I spend at least 50% time at home.
