SEEKING FREELANCER

Autokroma.com | C / ffmpeg / systems programming | Lisbon remote

We do audiovideo software (video editing, visual effects) and work remotely. I'm looking for self motivated individuals, who are good at async remote text communication and able to organize, plan, report and manage the work themselves.

Send me an email, the first part of the email is "contact" and after the @ it's the domain name. Tell me your story, what you're looking for in your life now, previous bad work experiences you'd like to avoid and good work experiences that inspire you for the future

SEEKING WORK | Cambridge, UK | Cambridge/London/Remote

I'm a software engineer with two decades of commercial experience. I've helped startups get started and big companies keep going.

I've organised a couple of jobs through HN now; it's been a good way to find interesting projects, and my clients have been pleased with the work. One said: "Thank you! I've played with it a bit and it looks very impressive! Way better than what I imagined this project could be."

I've worked on a very wide variety of web-based projects, as well as React Native, Windows, and other platforms, so I will be able to hit the ground running on most projects. If you're doing something a bit esoteric, that could still suit me – I've done image analysis of microscope images, processing big data for satellite imagery, devised novel algorithms, written network protocols, hacked on FPGAs, basically a bit of everything.

I did a PhD in programming languages so I'm pretty good at picking them up. In the last 5 years I've done commercial projects in (at least):

Typescript/Javascript (React Native, browser, and Node.js), C#, Python, Java, Swift, Ruby and Golang.

As well as building things, I am also good at talking to people to help figure out what we should be building. I enjoy working with other developers and helping the team learn, but I am also happy to get my head down and build what you need. I'm happiest on fixed-term projects that I can complete on a schedule that suits both of us, and my clients have been very happy with this process too.
