SEEKING WORK | Mexico City / Remote | Senior Full-Stack Developer with excellent communication skills

Technologies: NodeJS/Express, Rails, React/Vue/Solid, Dart/Flutter, Native HTML Web Components, Terraform, Kubernetes, Serverless, Firebase, Typescript, Rich Text Editors, Stripe

Résumé/CV: https://hottest.hot.page

Email: twfarnam at gmail.com

Hey, I'm Tim, a senior fullstack developer from New York, now based in Mexico. I have more than 12 YoE on all kinds of web apps as well as mobile and server environments. I love backend and APIs, but I have a passion for pixel-perfect UIs and frontend magic. I have built many of my own projects from start to finish so I have learned a lot about good UX/UI, can choose the best technologies for the job, spot problems before they arrive and write solid tests. My prior career in journalism made me a great communicator and writer. I also enjoy devops and managing servers using Linux, Docker and Kubernetes. I have built many apps on AWS and Google Cloud, including using Terraform for infra and Github Actions for CI/CD.

Right now, I have a side hustle bootstrapping Hot Page (https://hot.page) and releasing native HTML web components as part of my open source project HotFX (https://fx.hot.page).

SEEKING WORK | local or REMOTE

Location: Africa or REMOTE

Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where I can get the necessary permission to live and work. Occasional travel is possible.

Technologies: Linux, Front or Backend Web Development, General Software Development, System Administration.

Résumé/CV: on request (software development, CTO, mentoring, training, fluent in English and German, german citizenship)

Contact Email: see profile or http://codingforafrica.at/

Like this Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work, but I am open to work on any interesting project. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so I am in the process to relocate to Africa.

I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and I am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.

I value good teamwork over fancy tech, and I don't shy away from working on legacy code. I am primarily motivated by solving problems, so let me help you solve your problems.

I am open to work for companies anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.

While I could find a job elsewhere I believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location I am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.

In addition, I want to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. I also sponsor children that otherwise can't afford to go to school (see my website). If you want to support this, I would love to work with you. Also if you are interested in hiring African developers yourself. I can help you build up your team.

I have 15+ years experience helping companies plan, prototype, and productionize sane data science solutions.

I love avant garde problems, and have a pretty unique skillset. I've worked with names you know in automotive, aviation, tech, and other spaces. Recently I've been working with Oil & Gas - Production estimates, pricing, failure analysis, and other interesting things.

SEEKING WORK

Remote, located in Armenia

ML Engineer

I worked at largest European tech companies and YC startups. I have ML education from a top uni. I have 8+ years of ML experience.

Working in large companies, I've trained large language models myself, which helps me to understand what makes an LLM tick. I worked on a web-scale RAG system at a major search engine company before this term was popular.

I am a generalist, proficient with Python, but also capable with Rust, C++, Javascript. I can serve as a fractional CTO, capable both as a leader and as a highly efficient individual contributor.
