SEEKING WORK | Europe | Remote Only | Frontend developer

============================================================

Robbert, frontend developer with 8+ years experience, focused on designing and building interfaces in React.

If you need someone to build your web app's next UI, whether it's a simple dashboard, complex developer tool, or anything in between, look no further.

I've got experience building complex interfaces that combine both technical skill and excellent UX and design. Recent projects include UIs for an AI app builder, API development tool, and video asset manager for streaming services.

My tech stack includes: Next.js, Astro, Tailwind, Framer Motion, Redux, Zustand, Radix, shadcn/ui, and more.

In addition to technical skills, I bring:

  - Clear and open communication
  - Reliable delivery
  - Strong eye for design and UX
Beyond implementing fixed designs, I enjoy seeing the bigger picture and working with you to find the best UX solutions to your business needs.

Looking for: Clearly defined projects (<12 months), open to part time or shorter assignments.

SEEKING WORK | UX/UI & web design

Portfolio: https://seanw.org/

Live example projects: https://checkbot.io/ https://inclusivecolors.com/

Location: Edinburgh, UK and remote (I’m used to time zone differences and async work)

---

I help startups with the UX/UI and web design of their products. This includes web apps, websites, landing pages, copywriting, and I can assist with frontend development where needed. My background of launching my own products and being a full stack developer helps me create practical designs that balance usability, aesthetics, development effort, and performance. I work to fixed price quotes for self-contained projects.

---

The best live example of my work is Checkbot (https://checkbot.io/), a browser extension that tests websites for SEO/speed/security problems. The entire project is my own work including coding the extension itself, UX/UI design, website design (the homepage is optimised to load in 0.7 seconds, 0.3MB data transferred), marketing, website copy, and website articles on web best practices.

SEEKING WORK | Madison, WI | Remote or local

Do you need the expertise of a seasoned software engineer for a small project but don't have the budget for someone full-time? Are you willing to have the project completed asynchronously, on an hourly basis, in around 1-15 hours per week? If so, we should talk (the introductory call is free). I have around a decade of experience (see below) and am available on Tuesdays and Thursdays as well as some times on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays (MWF I teach math & Latin at a small classical school). My standard rate is $100/hour for async work, $150/hour if there's tighter deadlines or if you're funded by VC. Discounts available for special circumstances :)

Recent work:

- Fractional team lead for Learnics. Wrote a bibliography generator that supports MLA, APA, and Chicago style. (Tech: Vue, Firebase)

- Created an app for playwrights to use for creating and rehearsing plays. (Tech: React, Typescript, Flask, Postgres)

- Built the front-end for https://app.composer.trade, a systematic trading app. Took the company from designs all the way through launch. (Tech: Clojure/Script, Firebase)

- Created a fuzz-testing tool that takes in a language grammar (EBNF) and uses that to generate syntactically correct random text in that language. During text generation it can also take in external information (such as table and column metadata for use in generated SQL queries) to create random text that is contextually correct as well. Currently used for testing SQL databases.

- Built a video-hosting and sharing site for family videos. (Tech: Reagent, Clojure/Script, S3, CouchDB, Stripe)

- Created the https://github.com/deckeraa/couchdb-auth-for-ring/ open-source library that enables you to use CouchDB as an authentication back-end for Ring apps.

- Led a team of ~17 software developers for the business intelligence module of a large healthcare IT company.

Buzzwords: Clojure, Clojurescript, Javascript, C#, Java, MUMPS, Bash, SQL, CouchDB, GraphQL, S3, Python, Firebase, Cloud Firestore, TailwindCSS, Vue

SEEKING WORK | REMOTE | U.S. + Europe

Location: Tennessee, United States

Unicorn. I do branding [1], design, and full-stack JavaScript development. I built the Joystick JavaScript framework (full-stack [2]) and Push deployment service [3]. Recently shipped Parrot [4].

Though I prefer my own tools to move fastest, I'm competent with and adaptable to any/all JavaScript + Node.js frameworks and tools.

Looking to work with entrepreneurs and small teams (or VCs who need a sharp shooter who can deliver) who need help shipping product and features that work from day one, fast. 17+ years of experience running a small business/shipping software, so I don't need to be babysat—just set loose with a clear idea of what needs to be built and open lines of communication if/when I have questions. The catch: I'm using freelance work to finance product ideas and have freedom to do work on my terms (i.e., I can be available to consult long-term by contract but not looking to transition to a full-time position).

Average time to brand, design, and ship a full-stack app is 3-6 months but I can move faster if you're willing/able to delegate 100%.
