SEEKING WORK - Brighton, UK. London, UK. Remote.

Freelance developer based in Brighton in the UK. I work a lot with Python (often with Django) and JavaScript (Node.JS and browser) to build rich client browser based and mobile apps. I also do hardware based projects, I have experience with coding in Assembly and C on various micro controllers and Arduino development.

I am flexible, resourceful and reliable and I can help you turn your ideas into reality. I can build prototypes or full apps on my own but also happy to work as part of a team (and I have a bunch of great people I work with if you need help putting together one)

A very non-exhaustive list of technologies I have built real things with (and enjoyed): Python, JavaScript, Django, Node.JS, Backbone.JS, AngularJS, OpenCV.

Some recent projects:

- The software and technical design for a "magic mirror" that was used at London Fashion Week. Behind the scenes it was built with 15 network Raspberry Pis with camera modules. http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/tag/london-fashion-week

- An iPad app for a medical company for quick lookup of drug interactions. This was built with HTML5 and made use of Angular.JS. I can show you more of this one on request.

- A web app for a training company to provide complete courses online combing video, slides and quiz's.

- Lead developer on a team building a collaboration application featuring a RESTful API and browser and mobile clients. See http://thisisdrum.com and see also a talk I gave on some of the tech[1]

- Head pose estimation from a video feed for a interactive store-window display (it superimposed masks over the faces of customers as they looked through the window)

I can show you more of these on request

Some stuff I've made:

- Listeron, simple email discussion lists. http://listeron.com

- I recently added Generator support to the CoffeeScript compiler: http://almostobsolete.net/coffeescript-generators.html

- A location based app: http://head2.me

- An open source JavaScript library I wrote: https://github.com/dharmafly/jsonpatch.js

- The Amazon Glacier support I contributed to Boto (popular Python library): https://github.com/almost/boto/tree/glacier/boto/glacier

I'd love to talk about your project. Please do get in touch!

SEEKING WORK - Remote, I'm based in France

Full stack web developer, specialized in the back end with PHP, PostgreSQL/MySQL and Redis. I also do quite a bit of Go. I'm not afraid of the command line and I know how to configure the tools I use.

I have lots of experience with high performances requirements (sites that scale, millions of users and billions of records), cloud based solution (ec2) and web scrapping.

I love a good challenge, let me know what your problem is and I can guarantee we will find a great way to solve it :) I may not have the most buzzwords but I'm efficient and get things done.

SEEKING WORK - London, on-site (Central) / remote

Github: https://github.com/mickeynp/ Blog: http://www.masteringemacs.org/

Jack-of-all-trades full-stack Python developer with a wide gamut of experience doing both backend and frontend development work. Past work include: workflow & digital asset management system (Django/JS); enterprise-scale release management systems; large-scale ETL and web scraping; business integration work; report generation and other RDBMS CRUD apps (Oracle, MSSQL, etc.); writing modelling software for the train industry; and much, much more.

I am often called upon to do esoteric, non-Web development tasks; be it integrating disparate systems or helping a business out with failing projects by picking up the slack and learning tools and domain knowledge on the fly.

I am also more than willing to work with non-Python languages.

Used to working in high-pressure, client-facing environments.

I am available for on-site work in central London and remote work elsewhere.

Contact me (see e-mail in profile) and we can talk about you and your business's needs.
