Sigh. I know I'm not the "right" industry for HN, but I find the news & discussion here interesting and that's why I'm here. I really trying to keep my head up when I see these "who's hiring" posts & stay optimistic about the job market. The reality is I've been searching for 2+ years and the market is challenging for what I've done for ~20 years (credit underwriting / LBO / M&A).

  Location: NYC, NY
  Remote: Open to in-person, hybrid, and remote
  Willing to relocate: No
  Technologies: credit underwriting / LBO / M&A

Hi - I'm Stephane. I spent ~20 years originating, structuring, and syndicating loans to a variety of mostly PE-backed companies of all sizes & in all industries. A lot of that work is focused on understanding corporate structure, cash flows, and valuations. Most recently, I had pivoted to underwriting bespoke loans to founders / C-suites of privately held companies. Open to (fractional?) COO / CFO and FP&A type roles.

I'm a former academic researcher (in linguistics) turned self-taught software engineer who'd like to transition into professional software development. I'm experienced across the stack using Javascript/TypeScript, Python, and SQL with platforms like Cloudflare and Val Town. I bring a research-driven approach from my Ph.D. in linguistics. I'm especially interested in working on AI tooling and integrations.

I've been a software developer for 20+ years, (mostly) remote since 2011.

Looking for freelance linux-based contract work, B2B (yes, I'm incorporated) or 1099. Open to part-time contracting.

I have a can-do attitude and have the ability to be hands on, mentor, work collaboratively and autonomously.

I prefer to do things as opposed to talking about doing things and am able and willing to gather requirements, create stories and define projects.

I'm punctual (I value everyone's time), reliable (I stick to what we agree upon), dependable (I'll be there when you expect me to), adaptable (I'm not stuck in one tech area) and accountable (no issues with ownership of things I work on) and all the other good -ables.
