I'm a competent C and C++ programmer. The C++ spec weighs a lot, so I'm hesitant to call myself an expert, but I have a good working knowledge of the languages. For a previous employer I worked on a commercial Windows IDE for ~3 years.

I've been working on the foundations of a 3D game engine for ~3 years, which has taught me a great deal about C, systems and graphics programming on both Win32 and Linux. I chose to build it without libraries (Handmade Hero style) which began as a learning exercise, but ended up teaching me to value simplicity much more than I expected.

I can configure and maintain webservers, proxies and load balancers having worked with the web for 10 years.

I have a good understanding of the Linux network stack and APIs at the systems level - I've worked on several custom TCP + UDP protocols in the past.

I love building tools. Sometimes I feel like I was made to build tools. I build all kinds of tools - tools for computers, tools for automotive maintenance, tools for making tools. I've been building a game engine, which I would consider a collection of tools, for years and I still enjoy working on it.

Lastly, and I think this is interrelated with the tools thing, I'm a systems programmer at heart. I love having direct access to the chip and needing to understand the hardware architecture, as opposed to the internals of an interpreter, to write well-working and well-performing code.

That's the cliff-notes on my technical background. As a person I'm friendly and easy to get along with. I like the phrase "Have strong opinions, weakly held".

I enjoy backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, rock-climbing, hiking, biking and beer! I live in a small town called Nelson in British Columbia, Canada and would strongly prefer to work remotely. I've been working remotely for several years for companies in the SF bay area and love it!

If you think I could be a good fit for your team and would like to chat I can be contacted by email at jesse.hughes.it@gmail.com

Recent Bootcamp graduate who has his toe in code for over 15 years. I've spent years problem solving and driving results for corporate America, and am re-entering the tech field to try and make a difference here. My experience as a flagship retailer and bartender has created an individual who isn't afraid to get his hands dirty, and leverage tools around him to drive results.

Available for all work, but seeking full time employment with a company that will allow me to thrive as I enter this new field.

Data Scientist with a specialty in spatial statistics. After graduation (2017), I worked at Oak Ridge National Laboratory on population estimation for a year. Since then, I've spent my time travelling the United States and Canada to see where I should live next. Conclusion: I'll be happy most places. I'm now looking for a new opportunity and would appreciate the opportunity to learn about your company.

I am a web developer looking for a remote or overseas job in my field. I consider myself very versatile and most of what I've learned was by necessity. I am a quick learner and can handle myself with existing and new projects.
