SEEKING WORK | Ontario | REMOTE

I'm a CPA turned developer. I was an auditor who taught myself programming on the side, and am now working in the space of helping transform internal financial processes with code

I'm interested in anything that might intersect finance and tech, such as things like providing advice on accounting software. I can also help you with financial planning, budgeting, financial analysis, internal control design, evaluation of processes, recommendations for improvements, help with the audit process, accounting education, etc. I'm experienced with Python, Django, SQL. Unlike most accountants, I know how to use git properly.

I have around 5-10 hours a week available, might be able to swing more for short-term projects.

SEEKING WORK | The Netherlands | Remote

Software engineer with a focus on but not limited to backend development.

I have worked on long-running applications with a large codebase and have started projects from scratch. Besides developing software, I have experience with managing and implementing customer software projects, CI/CD, designing software system components, and leading a development team of 7 people. While I am happy to take on projects in any problem domain, I have some domain knowledge in the Dutch healthcare and Dutch pension industry. I work as part of a team most of the time, but am open to solo projects.

Most of my experience lies in Java, C# and Node.js development, but have worked with others and any technology stack is negotiable. On the front end, I have most recently worked with Vue.js, but other frameworks are not uncommon to me. I also have a Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence.

Currently available for ±10hrs/wk. Please contact me for my rate and upcoming availability, or if you simply want to connect or have a chat that's also fine :)

SEEKING WORK | local or REMOTE (within Africa)

Contract or part-time

Location: Africa

Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where i can get the necessary permission to live and work.

Technologies: Linux, Fullstack, System Administration.

Résumé/CV: on request (software development, CTO, mentoring, training, fluent in English and German)

Like a recent Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so i am looking to relocate to Africa.

While i could find a job elsewhere i believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location i am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.

I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and i am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.

SEEKING WORK | UK Remote | Tech Writing

I am an ex dev technical writer (30 years in the industry) who keeps up to date with development technology. Looking for part-time work either remote or within a reasonable commute of my Hampshire, UK location. I love docops, docs-as-code and modern doc stacks like Docusaurus. Hate non-modern doc stacks like DITA. I've worked with dev tools, APIs, analytics and ML. Not interested in Fintech/Crypto. I've also spent time in technical Sales and Marketing roles, so can write more salesy material - like technical web content - than product documentation on its own. Contact ropley at the place where the big G hangs out.

SEEKING WORK | Seattle | Remote OK

I am a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), Google Style, with experience at both large and small organizations. I've been using Kubernetes since the very beginning, been actively working at scale, and worked across the stack and with diverse technologies. I'm looking to help small dev teams increase their velocity by implementing best-practices of Devops: CI/CD, Kubernetes Deployments, and effective Monitoring frameworks. My current availability is limited; I'm well stocked on clients though trying to increase throughput and wrap up some projects. I'm available for consulting on your initial setup, for fixing your build, as well as on retainer for operational Oncall. I'm actually quite busy at the moment, but happy to have a conversation if you've got something small or forward-looking, or happy to forward it on to my network.

SEEKING WORK | The Netherlands | Remote

I have 5+ years of experience with Django and worked with many tools/technologies/libraries related to it (Vue/Vuex, pytest, various CI/CD tools, docker, htmx, websockets etc).

This is my Github page with some open source stuff on there: https://github.com/GDay, most of my open source work is in this repo: https://github.com/chiefonboarding/ChiefOnboarding.

I also have a blog featuring Django content: https://djangowaves.com

Contact: https://djangowaves.com/contact/.

Writing docs/tests (where applicable) is important to me. I, unfortunately, won't work on a project if tests are not part of the plan. If you currently have an existing app without tests, then I am happy to write those for you.
