Python Backend Role
Hi there, I’m looking to join a small startup where I can focus on backend development, implementing new features, and optimizing existing code and workflows. I have experience building scalable systems, working with data processing, and full-text search. If your team is tackling performance bottlenecks, database optimization, or any Python-related challenges, I’d love to help.
I work within EU / USA timezones.
While I specialize in Python, I can adapt to other programming languages, though it may take some time to get familiar with your existing codebase and workflow compared to Python rn.

Looking to pick up a gig and help fill in the gaps on an existing project or kickstart a new one. Motion control, test automation and embedded data management applications are typically where I am a good fit. I can also be quite good at getting a hardware PoC up and going quickly as needed.
Always happy to discuss!

#74Location: Tennessee, United States
I help startups and small teams (independent or embedded in a company) to ship great looking, stable features + software, fast. I'm a "unicorn" type that can do everything from design to development and infrastructure.
I've been building the Joystick JavaScript framework (full-stack [1]), Mod CSS framework [2], and Push deployment service [3] for the last 4 years. Recently, I shipped Parrot [4].
I have solid experience building AI-driven apps (I've worked with APIs from OpenAI, Anthropic, and AWS Bedrock), too.
Though I prefer my own stack to move fastest and deliver the best results, I'm competent with and adaptable to any/all JavaScript + Node.js frameworks and tools.
I don't need to be babysat, just set loose with a clear idea of what needs to be built and open lines of communication if/when I have questions (a Slack/Discord will suffice). I can be available to consult long-term by contract but not looking to transition to a full-time position.

#75Location: 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. 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.
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.
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 am also open to work for companies anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.
In addition, my plan to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. 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.

#76Location: SF Bay Area Remote OK
I'm looking for one or more freelancers to help with two different projects. One requires text transformation animations between two different words for a word game, and the other involves extending a text editor and display for a 'programming language of poetry'.
For the latter, on the left-hand side is the editor (and the 'meta-poem', as I'm calling it), and on the right-hand side is the interpreted poem. Challenges include highlighting different parts of the text different colors according to their bracket depth, keeping mappings between editor line numbers and final poem line numbers, and switching representation from a json array of meta-poems to a json array of 'operations' or 'diffs' using operational transforms or similar technologies.
Additionally, if you have expertise building parsers in haskell and running haskell in js, this would be particularly helpful for the second project.
Please email kian[dot]locke[at]thekeyunlocks[dot]us if any of the above challenges sound like a good fit.

#79Building stuff in crypto today is really hard. Imagine if you wanted to put up a personal website and all you had to do was start by breaking ground to build a data center. Your personal page probably would not be that good, would it? Small teams can only focus on so many things; we want them to use center so they can focus on the details that truly matter and make products beautiful.
We want to eliminate all of these annoying, cumbersome, expensive problems that devs face so that they can build incredible user experiences that help people flourish and rise to the level of their ambition, without having to think about if their nodes are online or if their indexer is missing any data.
We started about 3 years ago and have finally started to find product market fit. We're looking to scale the engineering team so that we can finally bring our products to market.
Our investors include Founders Fund, Thrive Capital, SV Angel, @balajis, and many more incredible folks who have taken a chance on us; it's been my mission for the last 3+ years to make sure that everyone involved in this venture does phenomenally well.
