SEEKING WORK | Germany, remote or in-house (willing to travel)

I'm an old generalist programmer. I prefer to work on your custom codebases and I enjoy optimization work.

Backend: server-side web programming with PHP, Node, C++

Games: Pixi.js, Three.js, HTML/Canvas, Godot, custom code/engines using OpenGL or Vulcan

General programming: Python, C++, JavaScript, Pascal, Go, Lua, Swift

Platforms: MacOS, Proxmox, Arduino/Microcontrollers/SoCs

I like working on:

  - proofs of concept and MVPs
  - getting projects ready for demo day
  - turning MVPs into fully fleshed-out products
  - code reviews
  - hot spot optimization and scalability
  - developing/maintaining in-house tooling
  - project rescues in the face of looming deadlines

SEEKING WORK | London | Remote (US/EU timezones)

I run a boutique software development studio, where I focus on helping startups get their MVP off the ground, or assisting companies with more intricate and involved development tasks. I'm particularly geared towards projects which involve more complex interactivity or problem-solving.

Clients come to me when they want more than a copy/paste solution, as I take the time to understand their business and goals in detail, collaborating with them to deliver something highly tailored to their precise needs.

Thanks!

I'm currently nomading around Southeast Asia and am keen to find some contract/freelance/consulting work. I'm pretty flexible with what I'm looking for in all honesty, my main want is to help solve problems and write some great code.

SEEKING WORK | local or REMOTE

Contract, part-time, technical co-founder

Location: Africa or REMOTE

Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where I can get the necessary permission to live and work.

Technologies: Linux, Fullstack, System Administration.

Résumé/CV: on request (software development, CTO, mentoring, training, fluent in English and German)

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.
