SEEKING WORK | Berlin, Germany | REMOTE (flexible timezones)

CV: https://cv.thelastcode.io

Email: tyteen4a03@thelastcode.io

I am a software engineer with over 6 years of experience building web applications.

Since my first website at 10 on GeoCities, I've gone on to work on Minecraft custom servers, MMORPGs, web application used by millions, and led volunteer teams to deliver IT services powering a homeless shelter network every Christmas.

I enjoy being "the glue" to IT projects, working across disciplines to ensure they get delivered on time, meet budget and satisfy users. I specialise in modernising legacy applications using modern technologies and frameworks, and have created greenfield applications from scratch.

I speak PHP, Python, JavaScript / TypeScript, and have worked with frameworks like Next.js and FastAPI. My current obsession is headless CMSes (PayloadCMS gets my vote).

SEEKING FREELANCE | REMOTE | Hybride on Brussels (Belgium/EU)

Willing to relocate: No

Hi, I’m Laurent, a senior Python developer with a lot of different experiences from full stack (django, flask, sanic…), backend, asyncio, open source contributions (18k contributions on github), tools building, framework development, automated refactoring and more.

In addition I’ve develop side skills like application oriented sysadmin (deploying python projects and all), config management basics (salt), monitoring (prometheus stack), observability, CI/CD pipelines (a lot of gitlab but I know github too) and team coordination/organisation.

My skills: python, django, flask/sanic/quart/asyncio, jupyter, SQL (postgres), peewee/sqlalchemy, javascript, vue (basic), git/jj/mercurial, debian/ubuntu/linux, nginx/caddy, docker/docker-compose, prometheus/grafana/influxdb, kanban, DevOps (gitlab/github CI, salt), doing conferences and many more

I love building software while ensuring we focus on what really matters. I’m always happy to learn new things and would gladly jump on new technologies.

SEEKING WORK | Remote | US (Eastern and Central) & EU timezones

vCISO & Cloud Security (AWS, ISO 27001, Risk Management)

I’m an independent security consultant with 20+ years in operations and cloud security, now running a remote-first vCISO practice from Spain. I focus on helping AWS-based startups and SMBs (50–250 employees) strengthen their security posture, meet compliance goals, and prepare for audits.

Services I provide:

* vCISO retainer ($5k/month) – security strategy, governance, board reporting

* AWS security architecture reviews – design and remediation guidance

* ISO 27001 gap analysis & roadmap – prep for certification

* Risk assessments (NIST CSF, ISO 27005, CIS Controls)

* Cloud security program build-outs

Who I work with:

* SaaS / Internet companies scaling quickly on AWS

* Startups seeking a pragmatic, fractional CISO instead of hiring full-time

If you’re looking for someone to build or improve your security program, align it with compliance frameworks, and work directly with leadership/engineering, I’d love to chat.
