SEEKING WORK - Freelance/Contract - Remote from US

I build scrappy solutions to complex problems with high ambiguity. As a solo person I can scope, design, and build end-to-end products.

I'm a serial founder who's built and sold multiple companies, and I've held leadership roles in engineering + product at major companies like Webflow and Trusted Health. But, my passion is building things - and I use my background in software and product to companies develop and launch products.

Here are some recent projects I've completed:

- Built a collaboration tool for AI researchers to evaluate their work at a government contractor

- Managed the transition and handover of a web application in a private equity transaction

- Prototyped a new data tool leveraging OpenAI for a startup and helped them get a first user

- Helped a non-technical crypto founder develop a business plan around a concept, resulting in pre-empted term sheet for a seed round.

- Designed a shift-swapping solution for an enterprise workforce management tool that is now used by tens of thousands of people per day

I've worked in a variety of web stacks ranging including Next.js, Rails, Vue, Go, Laravel, and Kubernetes. I'm an advanced user of Stripe, including their Connect product for marketplaces.

Here are a couple of projects I've built solo:

SEEKING WORK - Austin, Texas or Remote

I am an experienced engineer with a career spanning over a decade, working on a wide variety of commercial and open source projects in different industries.

In the past few years I have worked on real-time drone control and low latency video streaming, embedded linux OS deployment and maintenance, cross-platform mobile and desktop development, and I designed and implemented an encrypted cloud storage system for a company in Europe using the Rust language.

For several years I was the lead developer and maintainer of the OpenHD project[1] where I reorganized and modernized the development and release process, and created a cross platform touchscreen drone controller called QOpenHD[2].

I have real world experience with embedded Linux, Mac, and Windows systems programming (primarily C, C++, and Rust), iOS/iPhone and macOS development (Obj-C, Obj-C++, Swift, Rust FFI), and Windows desktop development (C# .NET/WPF, Rust FFI).

I have also used the Qt framework for several years and have in-depth knowledge of lower level platform-specific rendering and video handling APIs (OpenGL, Linux v4l2/dmabuf, GL texture/buffer sharing).

For personal projects I have designed my own FPGA IP cores, experience which gives me a much better understanding of how the hardware we run our software on actually works in practice.

Currently I am working on an animal safety monitoring system (embedded linux, Qt framework, C++ and Rust languages) designed to detect hazardous conditions and events that could be life threatening for a particular species (such as a baby tortoise flipping over directly under a heat lamp), using a combination of habitat sensors, thermal imaging, and computer vision. It integrates with common commercial streaming and notification systems such as the YouTube Live streaming platform, Twilio SMS notifications, and Apple HomeKit.

SEEKING WORK | Tulsa, Oklahoma | Remote: Yes

Hey, I'm Sam, and I'm a Consulting Software Engineer who helps SaaS companies master Technical SEO.

I love long walks on the beach and taking on impossible-to-solve Front End Performance challenges.

For client projects, I recently worked on a WordPress site for a Manhattan Synagogue that involved a heavy rewrite in Tailwind.

Another recent client was a React PWA built with Next.js, where I also got to implement Natural Language Processing via JavaScript to make event dates smarter.

SEEKING WORK, Kyiv Ukraine, Remote only Amazon Redshift specialist. Web-site : https://www.amazonredshiftresearchproject.org Email is on the site. I offer consulting, rather than fingers-on-keys building-a-system. For clients with existing systems, typically I explain how Redshift works, why they're having problems, and that it's the wrong database for their use cases. For greenfield clients, typically I explain how…

(Your post said "SEEKING FREELANCE" but I've changed it to "SEEKING WORK" in keeping with the instructions at the top.)

Hi dang,

Would you be kind enough to consider updating the format for 2023?

Instead of SEEK1NG W0RK and SEEK1NG FREELANC3R, how about something more explicit like I AM A FREELANC3R and SEEK1NG FREELANC3R respectively?

That way only commenters doing the hiring get to use the word SEEK1NG at the start of their post. It also eliminates the confusion for everyone else.

PS: I used leetcode to avoid polluting the results for others.
