Most recently, I was working at a fintech startup as a full stack developer on a small engineering team. We ran a Backbone SPA connected to a Flask backend on Heroku with some redis mixed in. I learned the code base quickly and grew into a leadership role. I'd like to leverage my existing experience focused on backend api work as well as explore more of a frontend focus. I am a self-taught developer with three years of experience and a background in mathematics and statistics at the master's level.

I would like to get back to hardware-focused development, but I realize at this point I am more attractive as a Java backend/systems developer. I think my ideal role would be "big" embedded (real-time, non-GUI code running on a full hardware platform with either an RTOS or soft-real-time server OS). Failing that, my next preference would be something oriented towards distributed Java applications (Hadoop, plain ol' sockets and REST, etc.) I'm open to any type of company; I mainly want good tools, flexible scheduling, a quiet environment, and no government contracting/security bullshit (after 14 years I'm tired of it).

I have a variety of experience acquired on my slightly winding career. I like variety and being a multidisciplined engineer. In addition to the electrical, systems, and software engineering experience I have some basic-level mechanical engineering knowledge.

I have a couple irons in the fire at the moment, but I have some bandwidth left at the moment.

[1] This requires explanation. My experience is in systems engineering by the INCOSE definition[2], not IT systems engineering. Adding to the title/skill confusion, I'm a decent sysadmin and know my way around Linux. I am not, IMO, good enough to get paid to be a sysadmin/devops/IT systems engineer. I don't really have a desire to be, either.
