Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (August 2025)

I like to make projects with personality. I'm pretty decent with UI, UX, architecting things and prototyping complex apps. I have a nice job experience in different startups, research centers and in FAANG-like companies. (I can send CV upon request)

As a example of things I like to do I put together a small collection of experiments with funky UIs that leverage LLMs behind the scenes. Give them a try and let me know what you think!

Thanks for reading! :)

I'm Phil and I have a PhD in computer engineering, specializing in operations research (mathematical optimization, constraint programming, mixed-integer programming, etc). For the past several years I've implemented custom, production-ready solutions for a variety of problems (scheduling, routing, etc). Recent work includes a constraint programming solution for goal-based selection of indexes in Postgres, a heuristics-based scheduling tool used in hundreds of vehicle workshops around the world, and an optimization model used for scheduling autoclave cycles in a drug manufacturing facility.
