I work primarily on backend systems, with a strong focus on performance and system stability/resilience. I worked as a performance engineer at the mobile add-attribution company Adjust.

Some interesting open-source projects include

https://github.com/fmstephe/memorymanager An exploratory manual memory allocator for building large in-memory data structures with near zero GC cost.

https://github.com/fmstephe/matching_engine A financial trading matching engine with a somewhat novel red+black tree implementation.

https://github.com/fmstephe/flib A set of packages primarily in support of a lock-free single-producer single-consumer queue.

My ideal position would be working on backend systems primarily in Go.

BSc Computational Linguistics, developing software for 13+ years in bioinformatics. Handling very large datasets (SQL, mongodb, slurm/nextflow, AWS, HPC), implementing research algorithms to analyse them (opencv, rust+pyo3+SIMD optimisation), and communicating results (django dashboards, flask rest apis).

Some avant-garde passion projects I'm working on involve using webassembly to compile bioinformatics workflows to run in the browser.

Lately I've had an absolute blast working through cryptopals, cryptohack, and some hackthebox wargames. I'm thinking about transferring my research skills to a career in cybersecurity.

SEEKING WORK - Data scientist, remote worldwide, email in profile.

A colleague and I lost out on a large optimization project (network scheduling during cascading failures) with an airline and I'm now looking for work. My ideal is a small/medium company where I can do no BS data science - ML, AI, and OR are my jam.

I've worked on projects including large language models, knowledge extraction, and the usual ML stuff - failure prediction, translation, maintenance optimization, automated sports highlights, and more. I've also done some more interesting work including vehicle route planning in constrained environments.

I love avant garde problems, and have a pretty unique toolset (LLMs+KB, OR+ML, etc). I've worked with names you know in tech, automotive, and other spaces.

The perfect fit is a small/medium sized company with a hair on fire green or brownfield problem that needs solving. I'm available immediately, and champing at the bit. Even if you're unsure, get in touch. Email in profile.

My wife is looking for a job for a while:

  Location:  South Lake Tahoe, CA
  Remote:  Remote preferred, but could be convinced to move back towards SF
  Willing to relocate:  Only to Northern California
  Technologies:  Financial analyst stuff
  Résumé/CV:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/alyona-timkina-8740b2107/
  Email:  aatimkina@gmail.com
She works for Disney / Hulu right now for several years and is an Associate Business Manager & Sr Financial Analyst. She manages a budget of over $250m and is universally loved. They're moving to in office and we have no desire to move to LA, especially to work in a cubicle. She wants to move more towards a startup, because she misses the fast-paced, team oriented, can-do attitude of Hulu, and is being drained by the culture of Disney. If you want a genuinely good person who will work her ass off, reach out!
