I am looking for full-time or part-time work, either one is fine. If you are looking to get a small project done, or you have an existing project where some maintenance work needs to be done (perhaps on a regular basis), then I would love to hear from you.

I am a very experienced Python developer, having used the language in all kinds of areas and situations, including web development (Flask, Django, Pylons, Google App Engine, etc), GUI development, database access (using MS SQL Server, MySQL, and Postgres), ORMs, REST APIs, scripting, backend development, automated testing, web crawling/scraping, data extraction and parsing/ETL, parsing, language implementation, games, etc.

I have a lot of experience with relational databases and SQL as well, especially MS SQL Server. In fact, in all of my previous jobs I have used SQL, including designed database schemas, writing queries, measuring performance and optimizing queries, writing views and stored procedures, etc.

I am also available for technical writing (I kept a programming blog for many years, mostly about Python), and for front-end development using React.

(For the record: Although Python is my main programming language, I am also interested in, and have worked with, many other programming languages, including C, D, Delphi, Go, C#/Mono, Ruby, OCaml, Prolog, Lisp, Scheme, etc, on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux systems. I am also available to work on projects in these languages.)

I'm a full-stack developer with 18 years experience. My specialties are Rails, Postgres and Chef/AWS. I'm also very comfortable in Angular, Vue, React, Java, and Python (lots of projects in Django, Flask, and CLI tools for DevOps and ML). I've made modest contributions to Rails, Postgres, and lots of other OSS projects.

At the low level I've done paid work writing custom Postgres extensions with C and SIMD CPU instructions and implementing performance-critical network services with Rust. At the high level I can design and wireframe features, show their business value, talk to customers, lead other developers, mentor, consult on application architecture, and advise on scaling/performance. You don't want me to pick your color scheme though. :-)

I am reliable, easy to work with, quick to turn things around, and a good communicator. I can work solo or on a team, either as lead or a team member. I value client satisfaction as highly as technical excellence.

We are a development shop that focuses on software craftsmanship. Our calling is to help companies create amazing, intuitive web & mobile applications, APIs, products, and services.

Pair programming, continuous integration & delivery, kaizen, and TDD/BDD aren't just ideas we pay lip service to, but core practices of our day-to-day work.

We love polyglots. We use lots of Ruby, Python, Elixir, and JavaScript (mostly React and React-Native).

As PromptWorks grows, so does demand on our engineering team. We often find ourselves fielding development inquiries from excellent clients working outside our preferred stacks and expertise or we occasionally don’t have enough staff to fill out a team with employees. In those cases, we like to work with seasoned, versatile contractors that are excited to dive in. We are seeking experienced freelance engineers to mutually expand our business.

Skills we are currently looking for:

• Ruby & Rails • Elixir & Phoenix • Kubernetes, Docker, AWS Lambda • Python • React, Angular • React Native • .NET • iOS, Android
