Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (February 2017)

Location: San Francisco Bay Area

Experienced Silicon Valley engineering professional seeking contract opportunities. These days I'm focusing on designing and implementing software stacks (APIs, microservices, CI pipelines) running in modern container environments - Docker, Kubernetes, CoreOS, GCE, AWS, Azure, Pivotal.

Specifically if you need to quickly develop scalable APIs or microservices for your infrastructure I can help. Get critical work started while you look for that perfect permanent hire.

I also have extensive experience managing technical organizations and large IT infrastructure and can help you organize and execute your engineering projects.

My tech stack these days is mostly Go, Docker, C++/C, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Prometheus, Grafana. And Jira, lots and lots of Jira :)

Contact me at contact@nulladmin.com to discuss how I can help you save time and money.

I run a mobile dev studio and just closed a contract requiring two Android developers, but my usual contractor is currently occupied and I need someone to pick up the slack.

This is a full time (40hrs/wk) contracting gig. Must be within US or EU timezones.

Email me at james@gradient.nyc with your rate and experience if you're interested.

Need to shore up the security of your web-based software? Need someone who can work within real-world security requirements?

PHP powers over 82% of websites on the Internet today, though it's often shunned by other information security professionals. For most companies, rewriting everything from scratch in a different language is not a viable strategy for minimizing the risk to themselves or their customers.

Is it possible for software written in PHP to be secure (in spite of what other security experts say)? Yes. If you still have doubts, get in touch.

My research and professional background mostly consists of software development, web application security, applied cryptography, code auditing, and penetration testing.

You may find much of my recent open source security research here: https://paragonie.com/security/advisories

A sample of PHP projects I've developed or contributed to significantly:

- random_compat - PHP 5 polyfill for the CSPRNG functions introduced in PHP 7; this security library has over 19 million installs according to Packagist - https://github.com/paragonie/random_compat

- sodium_compat - A pure-PHP implementation of much of modern elliptic curve cryptography and (AEAD) symmetric encryption - https://github.com/paragonie/sodium_compat

- CMS Airship - A secure-by-default content management system - https://paragonie.com/project/airship

- CSP-Builder - A developer utility to promote the adoption of Content-Security-Policy headers - https://github.com/paragonie/csp-builder

I can be reached via https://paragonie.com/contact or email: security@paragonie.com

Generally available for freelance web app engineering work. I've been working with Rails and JS for ~9 years now, at all points up and down the stack. Everything from performance work on existing code to bringing up a full-fledged product from wireframes. I’ve also been doing some Swift lately.

In the past, I've worked with companies like CircleCI, Remind, Leap Motion, Anki, Rocket Fuel, and TaskRabbit. Before that, I had two startups of my own. In my spare time, I fly airplanes. Currently available.
