I have ~8.5 years of experience as a security consultant and I would prefer to do more defensive/blue team work, but I'm fine doing offensive work or more consulting again. I'd also prefer to manage people because I enjoy it and I think I'm pretty good at it, but I don't mind being a pure IC.

While I am interested in being hired, I'm also very interested if anyone has constructive feedback for me about why they wouldn't hire me (no need to be gentle). I've only applied to a handful of jobs so far, and none have given me interviews or feedback, so I'm not sure why I don't appear appealing for roles I think I'm more than qualified for like Senior Security Engineer (Manager).

Location: NYC

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: No, but willing to travel

Technologies: Javascript/Typescript, Rust, Go, Node.js, React/Redux, PostgreSQL, SQLite, etc

I’m a web and app developer with over 15 years of professional experience. I’ve worked at startups, mid-sized companies, and large corporations including Apple, eBay, and the Comcast Silicon Valley Innovation Center. Since starting freelance work in 2020, I’ve done a lot of work with Rust, Stripe payment APIs, and multiple GPT/LLM APIs. I specialize in full-stack web development, but I’m also experienced in iOS development, server administration, database design, API integrations and more. I'm primarily available for freelance work (short and medium term contracts) through my own LLC, but I'm very flexible when it comes to when and how I can provide value to your team/project.

Hello, I'm Oleh. I'm a product-oriented frontend developer with 6 years of commercial experience focused on browser extensions. I enjoy turning ideas into working products without compromising the user experience or performance. I have a passion for design and always strive to provide best experience for users.

In my career, I worked a lot on browser extensions, so I have quite a good understanding of browser internals and how JS works. I'm perfectly comfortable coding in vanilla JS (and can reverse engineer JS scripts, lol) as well as using modern tech like React. Besides frontend, I can work on backend too (using either TS or Python) and do basic DevOps.

Beyond day work, I contribute to open source, work on my apps, and write articles for my blog https://sinja.io

I'm looking for a remote position in a product company without a lot of bureaucracy. I'm comfortable both working in team and being single developer. Extra points for you if the position allows part-time employment.

  Location: Europe
  Remote: Yes
  Willing to relocate: Yes
  Technologies: Java (Spring, Swing, JavaFX), JavaScript (Node, React, D3), various SQL & NoSQL datastores, ETL platforms, UI/UX design tools, AI/LLM tools, Git, Docker, AWS, etc.
