SEEKING FREELANCER - Chicago or Remote I've built a complex app for a demanding market, where bugs are not looked upon kindly. I'm using typescript and lots of tests to reduce bugs, but it's still not quite at 0. I'm therefore looking for someone who enjoys breaking things in twisted ways to put the app through some tough QA sessions. Contact me using: felipe at fov.space

ONLY PART TIME CONSULTING
DevOps Architect, Senior Technical Operations Engineer, Manager/Mentor/Leader. Expert in scaling, datacenter migrations, CI/CD process and pipelines, migration to (and from!) cloud. I'm a software architect and developer grown into the Ops role, I know how the software works at scale.
I'm most useful and worth my money on two types of assignments: 1. Cloud migrations: between clouds (like AWS to Azure, or Heroku to AWS), to clouds (like from the datacenter to AWS), and from clouds (like when you lost your sleep over the AWS bill and consider creating your so-called "private cloud"). 2. Software architecture and engineering: either prepare to scale or to go into production with availability, continuity, right processes, security and so on. I can look at your prototype or early production architecture and help avoid costly mistakes.
I'm also very good at hiring engineers and I can help you interview and select right people for the job. I've worked for and built excellent teams in companies of all sizes, from hundreds of thousand people to series-A startups. I also worked a lot in outsourcing and can help select and manage an outsourced team.

#83Dynamic Duo Frontend Devs
Location: NYC
Remote: Yes
Willing to relocate: Yes
Technologies: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React
We're a team of two. One of us is new to web dev and the other one has 4.5 years of experience in frontend. The one that's new to web dev is looking for a project to work on, and the one with more experience will be mentoring for free. You'll get two eyes for the price of one!
We know it's a unique setup, but we think it'll be the best of both worlds!

I am not actively looking right now but would not mind hearing interesting and challenging ideas.
Mostly I am involved in Python and PHP Laravel. Python for data scraping, EDA, and at times web development.
I am always in learning mode. In past few weeks, I learned and share about technologies on my blog. For instance:
- Getting started with Kafka in Python (https://goo.gl/nYUbdd)
- Elasticsearch and Python (https://goo.gl/PtfFHE)
- Create your own custom crypto token and use in existing business use cases - (https://goo.gl/rMVUWm)
and many others on my blog(http://blog.adnansiddiqi.me)
