Seeking work. NYC/Boston local. US Citizen, will happily travel on-site if deemed necessary PM/team.

* Back-end web work experience (mostly in the enterprise, though I do work with startups):

Django since 0.97c

ASP.NET MVC 3 for a Fortune 500 company (contact me for the case study)

Did an entire Rails-rework for a ticket-reselling site that does 150MM annual revenue. Streamlined purchase system decreasing annual expenditures in the low 7 figures for a low 6 figure project.

* Mobile Development:

iOS and Android work with 4.5 stars and in the 1-5 million downloads range. Case studies available.

* Experience prior to freelancing:

Full-timed at one of the big tech consultancies in Cambridge before branching out into my own shop with 2 fantastically skilled, intelligent guys and an administrative assistant.

* Generic language skills:

Somewhere between proficient and advanced at C#3 and 4. Intermediate with 4.5 (Full-disclosure: w/r/t async, I'm a little less than top-notch)

Proficient at F#.

* Front-end:

Front-end work is done by my partners Matt and Nicolas. Their portfolios available on request.

* Budgets:

We usually take projects between 20k and 200k, entirely dependent on scope mind you. Pretty flexible depending on the viability of future work.

Contact information available in my profile. Generally, what we like to do is talk about the project requirements (our best clients have a RFP but if you don't have one that's totally okay!), preferably in person if possible. Within 72 hours, we'll get back to you with a proposal where we can par down feature-set for an MVP to cater to your budget. Mutually agree, sign the statement of work and kick off.

SEEKING WORK - Remote or occasional travel around Europe fine. Native British developer based in Warsaw, Poland.

Back-end jack-of-all-trades, concentrating on PHP/C#/MySQL, experienced with Apache/nginx/IIS, and general Linux admin.

A few sample projects I work on in my spare time, using PHP/Kohana/MySQL/jQuery:

I'm very good at finding solutions to complex problems, enjoy rescuing projects in trouble, and like working with technology in general. I always chatting about requirements, feel free to drop me a line at tom@tbbpolska.com

SEEKING WORK - Remote, Columbus or Cincinnati areas, or the possibility of a travel / remote combination. My specialties are Ruby, Rails, and javascript/jQuery/Backbone, but I also have a great deal of experience with Asp.net MVC and iOS. Over the past year or two, I've primarily been doing Rails development for clients, including several startups, intermixed with some consulting work as a Team Lead and Ruby/Cucumber mentor at a large financial company. Recently, I've partnered up with another great developer to form a small small consulting company called JetCode here in Columbus. Look us up!

SEEKING FREELANCER(S): New York City well-funded startup (Midtown Manhattan). Remote work is possible.

I need:

1. Dev Ops: Node.js/Mongo/Redis/nginx/AWS backend programmer with good dev ops experience. Video experience helps (Transcoding, knowledge of formats, knowledge of storage techniques). Prefer someone that has scaled a cloud-based network globally before and understands the idiosyncrasies of caching and file propagation on such a network.

2. iOS developer: For cloud-based video sharing application. Must have good experience with AVFoundation. Any experience with video encoding or editing is a plus. Shaders a huge plus. But I need someone that understands how to send said video and other media across a wire using REST and sometimes more lower-level networking techniques.

Send email to ian_at_brabble.com.

Thanks! Please forgive any mistakes above I pounded the descriptions out very quickly.

HN freelancers, check out MyRudius.com -- it's a new spin on a freelancer marketplace. The model is a lot different than others and has several key benefits. Most notably, you'll no longer be buried by "spammy bids" from developers who don't even read the project description. Also, keep 100% of your income.

Please do not submit off topic posts

I don't consider that off-topic. Personally.

SEEKING WORK - SEEKING FREELANCER (Designer) - Wishing to build bridges to the Berlin design world with code for design swap. I am NYC based and preferably designer would be Berlin based. With over 10 years experience I am working on full stack jQuery/Python/HTML/CSS apps right now with an emphasize on scalability using the Brubeck framework. An ideal project could be taking existing PHP prototype and rebuilding it in Brubeck with a distributed architecture in mind. But any code for design swap would be considered. You can find me at my username dot com.
