SEEKING WORK | EU | Remote WORLDWIDE

Data-driven DevOps / Cloud / infrastructure specialist available immediately - NO JOB TOO SMALL.

I am a highly experienced IT engineer with many years experience in cloud (Azure, AWS), DevOps (Terraform, CI/CD, Python, Fluentd, DataDog, Splunk, GitLab/GitHub, Grafana), virtualisation (Docker, libvirt, QEMU, LXC) and Java.

I particularly specialise in data-driven applications that use Kafka, Mongo, Elasticsearch, Solr, Zookeeper, Hadoop, Redis and RDBMses of all shapes and sizes.

You name it, I've probably used it.

Recent examples of my work:

  - Design and delivery of a multi-region, multi-environment, HA platform based on Azure, Docker, Confluent Kafka and Mongo
  - Organisational-level DevOps tooling and security implementations
  - Disaster recovery (vm to regional-level scenarios) design and implementation 
  - Implementation of a PXE-booted self-provisioning clustering system using Packer, QEMU, libvirt
  - Productionalising Kafka and Confluent Connect clusters (SSL, SASL, ACLs, Debezium)
Onsite possible within the EU.

SEEKING WORK | USA | Remote I provide consulting services for everything in the OpenAI / LLM / ChatGPT realm. I'm an ex-Google consultant who now enjoys working with LLMs. After extensive work on projects for the likes of Village Global, I've developed advanced techniques for solving traditional problems in the space.

I mainly provide Chat Bot / Assistant / Co-Pilot / Question Answering systems over your custom / private dataset. Everything from basic (vector similarity retrieval + chat functionality) to advanced (massive accuracy improvement over vector similarity) systems.

I also have extensive ETL / data experience, so if your dataset is large, and/or is not already cleaned / prepared / queryable, that won't be an issue.

All projects are fixed-price (no hourly billing). A typical basic chat bot / question answering system is $15,000 flat fee (excluding cloud hosting and OpenAI API costs) with a 2-week turnaround.

SEEKING WORK | SF Bay Area, CA, US | Remote US

Current tech: Python, JS, Bootstrap, SQL/DB. Past tech: K8s/Helm, Clojure, Java/Maven, JSF, PHP.

I'm a long time freelancer who's taken full time gigs in Big Tech / SV and pretty much settled on freelancing now. I can offer $15/hr for at least the first 90 days with a 30 day rate change notice period.

I feel offering a minimal intro rate helps us learn how we work together in a risk free way and lets clients explore where I can help them unlock value. Ideally I'd like to mentor people to take over manual work at that rate as I automate and do higher impact work at a rate that reflects the value, closer to industry standard.

This seems unconventional but it reflects how in kitchens I can evolve from dish washer to helping with food prep and beyond, as the chef sees fit.

I thrive in R&D roles but can also do DevOps and put out production fires. I've been in the industry for my whole adult life and I don't think I've become entitled/unhumble and rigid as people sometimes imagine older devs. Well worth the $15/hr, not upset to be fired or afraid to fire if it's not working out.
