Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (October 2023)

Location: EU

Remote: Yes, EU timezones preferred

Willing to relocate: Depends on the location (but with a strong bias for EU-Schengen/US locations)

Technologies: Java, Python (and variants thereof like Groovy, Pypy), Node/TS | AWS/Lambda Serverless, GCE/Kubernetes | Redis, MySQL, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB

Resume: https://bit.ly/3B3o65M (It links to my CV repo at Github, pinky promise. You can also visit github.com/.)

I'm not actively looking (hence why my resume link is obfuscated like that) but I'm at least interested in getting a feel for the market right now. That said, I'm willing to consider a position with a great fit for my skill set and career goals.

Here's my pitch: I have experience in a multitude of industries and positions. From improving legacy infra and processes in an established telco company to scaling a fast-moving startup from 200K to 2M users. In my free time, I love writing Code That Is Poetry but day-to-day I am not an idealist engineer who doesn't compromise. Well-engineered code is clean and correct but correct above all else.

Oh, also, I'm great at writing documentation. I consider myself introverted but apparently my communication skills are above average for Software Engineers. I also pride myself on my humility and modesty.

I'd love to explore other technical positions in the games industry short of joining a AAA studio because (a) I don't want to crunch and (b) my skill set does not lay that way; other techo-creative industries would also appeal to me! Another particular interest is in B2C businesses where the 'C' is software developers. I'd love to chat and network about opportunities; if you think you have a product that could benefit from my skill set, drop me a line!

Hi! I have been working 12+ years in software engineering and 5+ years in Elixir; Focus on backend and systems development. I've been remote for 7+ years.

I would describe myself as an engineer with a product and business sense.

My experience spans multiple sectors, including enterprise software, staffing solutions, and most recently, financial technology in the realm of payments.

One of my roles was as a team lead in a (later) YC backed startup.

My preference is to continue to work primarily with Elixir, though I'm open to explore other opportunities.

I would love to explore how I can add value to your project, let's talk!

  Remote: yes (remote only)

  Willing to relocate: no

  Technologies: C# (ASP.NET, .NET 7), React, React Native, Node, Javascript, Typescript, PostgreSQL, MSSQL, AWS, Docker

I've been coding (full-stack + infra) and consulting for 12 years, mostly working on CRM/ERP systems in C# and React, but also third-party integrations and APIs. I'm specializing in legacy app reworks. Comfortable leading solo projects. Currently working on a mobile app for safer hunting (huntsquad.app).

I like interesting challenges (my latest favorite was figuring out how to get industrial printer ink levels from a raw ICMP response), sane and cost-effective solutions, but also keeping a healthy work-life balance. I'm a quick learner, so I can handle new technologies fairly swiftly.

Outside of work I love all things IoT and home automation in general, DIY electronics (I've designed a PCB once and it was fun), video games and music (learning drumming lately).
