Highly experienced VP of Engineering & Cloud consultant.

Skills:

* Crypto/Blockchain - building Crypto infrastructure (multiple Blockchains), customized libraries and APIs, as well as front-end (MetaMask) solutions.

* NodeJS/Meteor/SailsJS

* Wordpress/CodeIgniter/Yii/Drupal (Components, Hacks, Themes) - less motivated, unless truly cutting edge (or WP VIP projects)

* Django (general Python too) - to a lesser extent

Seeking: Challenging projects. Most recently automated GPU-based infrastructure for a MedTech startup, before that worked extensively with Serverless & AWS APIs, building cloud-related prototypes.
