MORE:

Claims about me that you just have to take my word for: (Most positive, some double-edged)

* Read a ton of ML papers (for leisure). Do genuinely love the field (afaik).

* Worked in 3 different disciplines and took non-traditional route, so have a bit more perspective than the usual junior-ish candidate. Good at explaining CS to non-CS people.

* Put in extra effort to be flexible, accommodating and amiable. Take time to gauge people's boundaries. Can come off as formal for a week, until I have judged cultural dos-don't of the circle. Turn into every other fun guy after that.

* I am super low ego. Take criticism well.

* Love presentations, talking about work and discussions (as my presence on HN may indicate) (to reach a conclusion, not be right) Friends suggested I do management, but like tech more.

* Show interest in literally everything, but avoid procrastination by religiously keeping lists and daily rituals.

* Like to think I am a fast learner. Proof-ish: have done well (so far) in masters at Top 20 university, despite not having a CS undergrad.

What do I not do well:

* Leetcode (yet): Clocking in 70 hrs/week (40 hrs work + commute + courses) for the last 4-5 months. No energy to do more work. Taking Winter off, so should be good to with Algos/DS by late Jan.

* Consistent over work : Willing to slog it off on weekdays. Want my weekends to unwind. (major breakdown, deadline exceptions apply)

I'm not really looking to be hired just yet, but more of what I can do to help my CV for the future.

Location: Kentucky, United States

Remote: Either

Willing to relocate: Depends. Not really wanting to go to Valley or NYC. Would love Europe

Technologies: Python, Django(REST), Javascript, Java (Android), Bootstrap

CV: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qxeincpy2vh3pav/Davis%20Sandefur%2...

Email: In CV

Note: Definitely more looking for advice and projects I could do to help build my CV. I've added Java because I'm experimenting with Android currently. Working on two apps, and have build a basic third one (Charisma trainer). The two apps will let you track vitals (temperature, blood pressure, weight, pulse currently; the main ones the doctor takes) and see a graph over time.

The other will be a flashcard app that functions by having the cards on whack-a-mole. Looking at possibly doing it in React or Flutter.

I haven't used Django(REST) much since I did the Réimnigh site, though I did some Flask on the other two unpublished webapps. I don't know which I should include, etc., so I'd appreciate any advice on that. And if I should make sure I'm up-to-date on Django before including it even.

Any other comments would be much appreciated. Thank you all!

  Location: primarily Midwest, USA 
  Remote: Yes, only remote as I travel internationally every year
  Willing to relocate: No
  Technologies: Ruby/Rails, primarily backend
  some Elixir and Elm
  JS, React (enough frontend to be dangerous 
  ops stuff: ansible, capistrano, AWS, heroku
Resume: https://cl.ly/2811a69a08c1

5 years full stack (primarily backend) experience. API design and integration are two things I do well. Testing is another. Ruby/Rails is my wheelhouse, but willing to learn anything. Mid-life career switcher with a Masters degree in another field and a bunch of interesting soft skills I bring to the table as well.

Interested in working on a product that has a focus on making the world a better place by addressing a tangible social problem (and is using quant/qual measures to evaluate their impact) whether organized as non-profit or for-profit. Looking to get out of agency life.
