#2I do custom electronics, robotics, and embedded software development - I specialize in quickly turning ideas into prototypes. I've built custom automation equipment for chemistry labs, sensors that are in use in household/utility applications, control circuitry for construction equipment, 3d printing electronics, data acquisition equipment. No project too small. Few projects too large. Deep discounts for open source hardware work.
I would also be happy to come over (anywhere in Europe) and teach any of the above skills to a small group of interested people. I've taught courses in electronic assembly (SMD), 3d printing (building/using printers, iterative 3d model design using programming) and robot design and construction. I've taught courses at several universities, hackspaces, and conferences.

#310 years experience across a mixture of Ops/Infrastructure and web application architecture and development, with a focus on solving unique/uncommon problems.
I’m looking for opportunities to help companies with backend/server-side architecture & development (primarily PHP MVC), system integration and/or server infrastructure setup/maintenance.
I mostly work remotely from Thailand, on a very flexible schedule (I can schedule work hours to get overlap with most other timezones when required) but on-site visits to pretty much anywhere are a possibility if required too.
Contact me via email to stephen.reay@me.com or via Jabber/XMPP to stephen.reay@dukgo.com if you want to have a chat about what you’re working on!

#5I'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. Prometheus & Grafana for monitoring.
+ 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.

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.
Currently on a project but we love meeting other companies and are happy to introduce you to someone we trust if your timing is urgent.
