[ SEEKING WORK - Remote / Los Angeles ]

I'm a full-stack web developer who just started a small dev agency in Los Angeles.

We're ultra-focused on web development and specialize in providing technical capabilities to agencies who don't have internal tech teams, or providing capacity to dev teams who don't have enough internal resources.

Our delegation is completely abstracted - all communications go through me and all deployment goes through our standard, simple processes.

We're currently available for a 20-hour or 40-hour per week retainer, starting in middle March.

My github: http://github.com/kvnn My linked-in: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/kevin-riggen/28/447/602/ My email: kriggen//gmail

Our stack is currently: * HTML / CSS / JS / jQuery * Python / Django * PHP / Wordpress / Drupal

Cheers!

- Kevin

SEEKING WORK - remote welcomed, will travel, Winnipeg/Toronto based

We're a small (there are three of us) web/mobile development shop in Canada. We do all of the usual PHP work with all of the usual frameworks/CMSes (Symfony, CodeIgniter, Cake, Concrete5, Wordpress, etc) but we much prefer working in Python/Node.js when the project allows. Personally, I'm particularly interested in client-side Javascript (or Coffeescript) applications (eg. using Backbone), especially projects with real-time and/or data visualization needs.

I also have experience doing embedded systems work and projects that interface web or mobile apps with [remote] hardware, in case that interests anyone :)

SEEKING FORTUNE, GLORY & ADVENTURE: Bespoke software for you made in NYC

These are two little projects I have done recently:

* http://streamjoy.tv/

* http://willholloway.net/makertime.html

* http://officespaceinct.com

My work history:

1994: Spend year dabbling in Visual Basic, get introduced to core programming concepts. Got obsessed with The Hobbit/Lord of The Rings and put coding aside.

2008: Took a college hiatus, 4 credits shy of graduation. They still let me walk, and I have a photo of me in a cap and gown and ostensibly receiving a diploma, which turned out to be a cheap placeholder containing an ominous threat to whomever failed to settle their tuition balance. Decided to put finishing college aside as way of burning my boats: entrepreneurial victory or destitution.

2008-2009: Sold fireworks, started and ran a global Facebook ads arbitrage operation. I've run many positive ROI ad campaigns with my own funds.

2010-2011: Facebook market changed. Switched to building products. Shipped and sold two Drupal based products.

Mid-2011-Present: Started reading Hacker News articles and comment threads obsessively, with a lot of googling to discover the meanings of terms like turing complete.

2012: Paid python consultant - built two products for client that are patent pending and am forbidden to show.

Year to date: Freelance gigs and afterwork keep rolling in.

The Future:

Flask/Python/Mongo/Elasticsearch/flat file architecture are my speciality. I am obsessed with automation and tools like fabric. When you are bootstrapping your own products you learn how to be extremely lean.

I work excellently remotely but will go anywhere the NYC subway system will take me. I make it a point to be highly available for communication.

To Other Freelancers:

I would love to ally with other freelancers to create a syndicate that would complement each others skills and/or bequeath job overflow to one another.
