Location: US Remote: Preferred Willing to relocate: Possibly

FT?: Open to FTE for right opportunity, but prefer contracts (PT/FT flexible, C2H)

Technologies: Ruby/Rails, Python, Ops (Heroku/AWS/Docker), CI/CD, API Design, System Architecture, thoughtful experimentation. Some: React, IoT, bit o elm, ML, LLM ops and automation.

Email: hello_from_hn@ericstiens.dev Website: https://ericstiens.dev Resume: https://cloud.wonderluxhouse.xyz/f/fd98d4cbdc104e3d8151/

Senior/Staff Engineer with a deep focus on backend, ops, and architecture. Can also get in there and knock out frontend features if nec, but don't prefer architechting there. I build durable, scalable systems and have a knack for mentoring teams and leading projects.

I solve problems at every level of abstraction—from the 10,000-foot view down to the code you don't have to write. My first career as a social worker and policy statistician means I never forget the 'who' and 'why' behind the technology. I've been building for the web since '95 and have worked at every stage of startup, plus solo consulting.

I have a special love for complex system design, wrangling crappy third-party APIs, and hunting down really weird bugs. I can step in as a PM in a pinch, but I'd rather work with your great PMs.

Also open to short-term engagements around a specific issue (performance bottlenecks, test suite optimization, a particular stuck feature, etc) at a weekly rate.

I'm looking for a team that genuinely believes their work is making the world a bit better (or even... a lot!)

Staff-level engineer (15+ yrs) with experience across FAANG and startups. I specialize in shipping polished UIs fast, integrating AI features (LLMs, agents, RAG), and designing user-first tools.

I have experience in Android and computer vision. In both of these positions I was naturally inclined to go beyond the expectations of the role to work with more of the stack, like higher-level work on our CI/CD pipeline and lower-level work on a C++ project.

I'm open to anything, yes Android and machine learning roles but also full stack, backend, devops, or anything else. I have broad experience and interests and am a quick learner.
