SEEKING FREELANCE WORK | US | Remote OK

I am a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), Google Style, with experience at both large and small organizations. I can help you build a Platform Engineering practice from the very beginning. I'm looking to help small dev teams increase their velocity by implementing best-practices of Devops: CI/CD, Kubernetes Deployments, and effective Monitoring frameworks.

I'm particularly selling my skills in PKI/TLS. My clients are rapidly moving to MTLS for all service-to-service authentication and even for browser-to-service authentication for internal tools.

Senior Fullstack Developer | 12+ Years | Seeking Long-Term Collaboration as Freelance

Currently employed but looking to build relationships with teams that value craftsmanship and velocity. I'm offering competitive rates ($70-90/hr) prioritizing team culture and interesting problems over maximizing income. I also enjoy procedural repetitive testing, so QA could do too (lower rates apply)

Summary:

- 12+ years shipping production code

- Dev tooling expertise (recently: custom Babel AST analyzers for faster debugging)

- Proactive problem-solver who likes to improve processes

Ideal projects:

- Teams with strong engineering culture who build ambitious things cleanly and fast

- Greenfield development or systematic refactoring

- Bonus: Highly formal/industrial model-driven environments and FP/Logic Programming environments (Clojure, Haskell, Prolog)

Senior data/platform engineer, around 5 years of experience. I build data systems where the output has to be trusted. Recent work includes validation frameworks for EU regulatory reporting at ESMA, Spark/Databricks pipelines for logistics use cases for SHV Energy, ESG reporting for KPMG, healthcare migration/data quality work around openEHR, and BigQuery/Airflow pipelines for logistics analytics. I’m strongest in messy-source-data problems: ETL/ELT, data quality, warehouse/lakehouse modeling, pipeline reliability, cloud data platforms, and making analytical systems debuggable by people who were not there when they were built.

Looking for: data engineering, data platform, backend/data infrastructure, analytics engineering with real engineering depth, machine learning/data-heavy DS roles, ML/LLM infrastructure, or small technical teams building data products. Open to both full-time positions and contracting.

Available immediately.
