SEEKING WORK - Remote, US-based

Remote: Yes (have worked exclusively remotely for past 13 years)

Willing to relocate: No

I've been doing backend work for the past 13 years, with Python, Django, and Django REST Framework. I'm intimately familiar with schema and data migrations, including migrations between Django projects. I've done a lot of full-stack work as well, with HTML, CSS, JavaScript/jQuery, and React.js. I've worked extensively with startups and I've worked with Twitter. I have a lot of experience working with distributed teams and am open to occasional travel. Available full (~32hrs) or part time. Interested in Python work or full-stack with Python.

SEEKING WORK | local or REMOTE

Location: Africa or REMOTE

Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where I can get the necessary permission to live and work. Occasional travel is possible.

Technologies: Linux, Front or Backend Web Development, General Software Development, System Administration.

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

Contact Email: see profile or http://codingforafrica.at/

Like this 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 in the process 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.

I am also open to work for companies anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.

In addition, my plan to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. If you want to support this, I would love to work with you. Also if you are interested in hiring African developers yourself. I can help you build up your team.

SEEKING FREELANCER | MorphMarket | FULLY REMOTE (all countries) | Designer FE Engineer | 20 - 40hrs/week ongoing contract

I'm the CTO of MorphMarket.com. We are an online marketplace that connects breeders and keepers of lizards, geckos, snakes, frogs, spiders and other pets. Our users passionately love the least loved animals - e.g. here's our COO's TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@brittniszoo/video/706572491190134711...

We're looking for someone who has web design skills and ALSO enough front-end programming skills to help implement layout changes etc. into the site. The ideal candidate

- has a spider-sense for design inconsistencies (e.g. poor alignment, font mismatch etc.)

- is able to use _some_ tool to produce quick designs for feedback (we're agnostic about which one: it could be Figma/Sketch/PhotoShop/some random WireFraming tool)

- can write and debug CSS to help us implement the design into our codebase -- and also knows enough React to help move things around.

- can help our team identify our canonical UX components and our visual language and spearhead a project to produce a design inventory to help the team coordinate better on design in the future

- has opinions about what makes a good UX and notices good patterns on other websites and apps

Work culture:

- Mostly async and written communication. Our team is distributed across Europe, Asia, and USA. We don't have common working hours, but you will need to find a way to sync up for perhaps 2 hours per day with colleagues for communications.

- Emphasis on learning and team education (e.g. here's my own YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/@semicolonsons) I try to keep things fun and engaging for the team.

- About 15 people on the product team and perhaps 10 staff in other roles.

- Friendly and social on Slack

- We devote every Friday to tech debt / sharpening the saw

If you're interested, fill out this form with a statement of interest, your billing rate, etc. https://forms.gle/KmgNYP3rB3xGbU7RA
