It's extremely messy and annoying to work with, to do the same thing you'd do by walking one step in Haskell you have to do five somersaults in Scala. It can't be fixed, and the Scala community thinks fixing it means hiding it behind fifty layers of fragile abstractions.

This is not really about typesystem differences. So, probably not everything at an expert level?

15+ years shipping software in multiple roles. Looking for challenging dev/devops/project work between 20-60 hours a week for contracting or FTE; don't need insurance benefits; 401k, bonuses, or similar benefits would be a plus.

what is wrong with you?

Every time I see a long list of technologies I truly wonder what level of knowledge the claimant assumes. In most of the cases breadth replaces depth.

  Email: matts10e6@gmail.com
MLE with 5 YoE - 4 in computer vision R&D, 2 with LLMs and SaaS. The arc of my career so far has been a slow evolution from Research Engineer towards AI-assisted full stack web dev. I'm interested in working in AI4Science, climate tech, or anywhere with a compelling story about how you're making the world a better place. I'm comfortable figuring out whatever needs doing and doing it in a small org, but I'm happiest when I get to implement a paper every so often, and when I get to help technical but non-programmer SMEs solve problems they didn't realize could be solved.
