  Location: Vermont, USA
  Remote: yes
  Willing to relocate: no
  Type of employment: full time, part time, consulting, contracting
  Technologies: AWS Cloud, GCP Cloud, Linux, Terraform, Ansible, Packer, CI/CD (CircleCI, Github Actions, Jenkins), Heroku, PostGreSQL, MySQL, Redis, Prometheus, Consul, Vault ...
  Languages: Go, Python (in the past, Perl, C++, C)

  Email: pete@theemersons.org
I'm an experienced DevOps / SRE / Infrastructure engineer who has focused mostly on startups who need to level up their infrastructure capabilites (e.g. migrating from Heroku to AWS).

As such, I've had my fingers in a lot of pies over the course of my career, doing what needs to be done to automate infrastructure and turn it into a commodity while preventing it from becoming a black box. I believe that crafting appropriately leveled documentation is a key to keeping the walls down between infrastructure and application engineering. I love teaching others my craft while continuing to acquire new skills.

I am willing to consider equity in partial exchange for base compensation for the right opportunity at a small startup. I also have the ability to hire at least one more to build a team if desired.

SEEKING WORK Location: Pakistan Email: kadnan@gmail.com

I am a seasoned backend software developer with over 13 years of experience, specializing in data-related tasks and automation for the past 7-8 years. My expertise includes API design and integration, web scraping, ETLs, and bots development and integration for platforms such as Discord, Telegram, Slack, and Trading applications. This post specifically focuses on AI automation. Here are some recent projects I've worked on:

Chatbot integration: for example, a real estate chatbot[1] that recommends properties and captures leads. This chatbot is customizable to meet your specific requirements.

Leveraged LLMs like chatGPT/Bard to generate content for a particular niche. For instance, I used it to create a stock market summary[2] at the end of the day, automatically posting it as a WordPress blog post. I also used OpenAI APIs to create a stock sentiment analysis system[3] based on news.

Developed custom GPTs tailored to individual needs. As an example, I recently integrated the GPTs[3] of a client who designed a custom GPT for product offers. This integration significantly reduced freelancing costs by at least 40%.
