SEEKING FREELANCER | Open source https://github.com/privacybydesign | The Netherlands | Remote (EU) or on-site

We're looking for a part-time/freelance mobile developer with an affinity for security and privacy to work on our mobile app and associated software.

- We're primarily looking for someone strong on the frontend who can implement smooth interactions, and make a complex topic intuitively understandable in an interface.

- You'll be working on top of a cryptographic protocol and client that tries to preserve the privacy of the user in everyday tasks.

- We're keeping an eye on Flutter as a technology that offers performance and a well-rounded set of official components for mobile. Be sure to respond if you feel confident in this area.

- All our code is open source. That also means the code you write is yours to take anywhere.

- We pay a decent rate (or salary), but it will probably not be the top amount.

See my HN profile for contact information.

SEEKING WORK ~ Melbourne, Australia ~ 100% Remote

Copywriting. Don't DIY. Hire me instead.

Need help with your landing pages, positioning, email sequences, or onboarding? Let's chat. I'm a friendly guy. :)

I'll talk to your customers (if you have them), analyze your competitors (if you don't), and come up with compelling copy that speaks to your prospects' pain points, motivations, hesitations and concerns.

I'll A/B test the heck out of your copy (and design) if you have the traffic. Not quite there? Let's work on your search strategy instead.

Hit me up: https://measuredcopy.com, or luke at that domain.

Very open to offers!

SEEKING TWO FREELANCERS | 1. Java, Full-stack web developer (Spring or Play Framework optional but nice to have) 2. Web InfoSec | Seattle | Remote in the US or Canada is ok (Pacific Northwest is a plus for occasional in-person meetings, but not required.)

I work for a large foundation in Seattle, WA. I'm looking to fill two contracts:

1) For an ongoing project involving Java full-stack web development for an internal tool used to collect and disseminate information within a program team. We're using PlayFramework currently but are looking to migrate to Spring. We will continue to use Java most likely.

2) For a security researcher to do an information security audit of the system described in 1 and to provide a comprehensive report of their findings.

SEEKING WORK | Location: Seattle, WA | Remote

Are you an eCommerce company who is looking to save money on hosting through extensive automation?

Working with iOffer[1], an established eCommerce platform, we cut their hosting costs by 80%, while matching the previous hosting provider's SLA. This added up to more than $500,000 per year in hosting cost savings.

Here's what iOffer's CTO had to say about the outcome of our work together:

> “If you point to any particular piece of our infrastructure, Fuzzy Logic has improved it. Everything is automated – all the provisioning, new services. We have a complex setup with all the applications, databases, storage and search servers. Fuzzy Logic set it up in a way that we’ll be able to continue to grow each of the services.” – Ian James, iOffer CTO

As the Principal of Fuzzy Logic, a Seattle-Based DevOps consultancy, we have deep experience in providing our clients with the business results they need through technical solutions:

- Infrastructure deployment - Code-checking/deploy - CI/CD - Best practices for on-premise or public cloud management

Clients who have worked with use have experienced great results, including:

+ Savings in excess of $1.4M/yr through environment-wide migrations from Rackspace fully-managed hardware to a private-cloud Openstack environment

+ A 33% savings from previous OpEx through optimizing public-cloud spend, replacing expensive SaaS products with internal services, etc

+ An 85% reduction in 'time to first commit' for DevOps engineers (going from two weeks to two days) through improvements to documentation and optimizations to the onboarding process

You can read more about the outcomes we've helped our clients achieve through technical solutions here: https://fuzzy-logic.org/page/project_sections/

## Your Next Step

If you're an eCommerce company that's looking for help achieving business results through technical solutions, let's have a conversation about where your business is going and what we can do to help get you there.

SEEKING WORK | Philadelphia, PA or Remote

I specialize in backend web programming using Python, Django, and PostgreSQL. On top of that, I can do a little bit of everything web-related, particularly:

- frontend (JS, jQuery, basic React)

- AWS (EC2, Elastic Beanstalk, RDS)

- Docker

- databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, Redis, Elasticsearch)

- microservice architecture (if necessary!)

- Linux administration

My experience at startups has helped me learn how to build systems, and how to keep them running, simply and with minimal resources.

My latest project is a chess training site at https://www.checkmatechamp.net/ . That site runs on the Google Cloud Platform and uses Python and PostgreSQL on the backend. The frontend is a mix of vanilla JS and OCaml (using js_of_ocaml).

SEEKING WORK - Remote

UI/UX designer and developer from Iceland looking to work on great projects where I can be a powerful asset in scaling a business.

Portfolio at: https://gilli.is

Over eight years of experience of working in Fin-tech, Journalism, TV and Media, Health, Science, and more.

I can provide the following for you:

- Design — Whether you need a design from scratch, a redesign, or you're having issues with a small part of you product, I can design it.

- Front-end Development — I can build the design into a pixel perfect product, this is rare among us designers and has proven to be extremely powerful for the end result since there is less wasted effort.

- Analysis — Your users know everything that's wrong with your product but have difficulty communicating it. Often it comes out in anger and frustration. That's where my usability and experience analysis comes in. I'll review your app from an outsider and expert point of view, and give you actionable feedback.

- Free advice — You might not be sure if I am the right fit and I very well might not be. I can help you figure out the best direction to go, for free.

I take my work very serious and put a lot of work into good communication, good planning, and, last but not least, properly understanding your product so that we can produce great results.
