I run a small consultancy but willing to work individually. You can see some of our projects at our website.

Three of us with similar skill sets available to work on projects. Prefer working on new projects as first technical team to build an MVP, but also enjoy team augmentation with the right team.

SEEKING WORK - London UK or remote. NO RECRUITMENT AGENCIES.

I'm a senior/lead DevOps with 15 years experience tuning & hosting web applications and I'm on the lookout for the next challenge.

I work closely with developers throughout the application lifecycle to build scalable and long-term robust architectures. Load testing, CI, deploy systems, monitoring, config management, security audits, dev projects of my own - you name it I've done it. For larger organisations I've even led whole infrastructure teams.

Recent work includes:

+ AWS/Kubernetes/Docker deployment to support a large, distributed (15 microservices + persistence layer) application. Worked closely with developers to ensure services were the best possible fit for containerized hosting, resulting in a very scalable application that makes great use of k8s' scaling & resiliency features. Multiple stacks namespaced onto same k8s cluster for efficiency; containerization of all services; automated deploys from CI. Persistence layer comprising Cassandra & Kafka with service discovery through Zookeeper.

+ AWS/Docker platform to securely host a large public-sector microservice-based web app taking millions of pounds per month in payments.

+ Chef-managed deployment of large microservice stack across varied configurations on cloud and physical servers

+ Large multithreaded Python 3 application for automated cryptocurrency trading. Didn't get rich, still posting on the HN freelancer thread.

+ Jenkins + docker-compose platform for efficient builds of microservice-based projects

+ Lots, lots more.

SEEKING WORK

Remote (Based in Baltimore, MD)

Get more users, sales leads, or customers.

I consult B2B tech companies on customer acquisition. That includes doing inbound marketing, acquisition funnels, optimizing conversion rates, lead generation, marketing operations, and marketing automation.

- Multinational telecom company

- NoSQL DB (one acquired by Apple)

- DevOps monitoring software

- Recurring billing platform

- Leading enterprise data science platform

- Mobile advertising platform

Far more technical and effective than your typical marketer; I deploy code and can talk shop with engineers and data scientists just as well as with marketers.
