Hi, I'm Andrew Trettel. I'm a scientist with a PhD in mechanical engineering looking for any potential opportunities outside of academia and research labs. I have over a decade of experience in scientific research, especially on the numerical side. I have years of experience in writing software for and running large simulations on high-performance computing (HPC) systems. I have also developed software for non-scientific purposes, like creating user interfaces for desktop applications. I have years of experience working with large datasets, including the tasks of calculating statistics and developing hypotheses/models/theories from data. I've worn many hats over the years and love learning new and interesting topics.

Remote: Yes

Willing to Relocate: No

Backend engineer with experience building agentic and RAG systems. At my previous job, I architected and wrote the LLM platform code powering a suite of LLM-based workflows used by major law firms.

At my current job, I built an LLM-powered document generation system (generating trusts, wills, etc.) and an agentic system for onboarding new clients. I am most productive in Python, but we have been switching to Kotlin at work and I think it's great. I have also been learning Rust and employing it in a side project (generating static sites based off of Google Maps info, also using LLMs).

I have a JD from a top law school and spent time in biglaw, so am particularly suited for building legal tech or adjacent products.

I have spent my entire career at early-stage startups and have had the experience of building from scratch multiple times. No strong preference in terms of size of company, industry, etc. Mostly looking for people who are easy to work with at a company that is building something reasonably useful.

I've been doing backend work for the past 14 years, with Python, Django, and Django REST Framework.

Hi, I’m Matyas! I have about 4 years of professional experience in IT infrastructure, managing large environments and automating with Python and PowerShell. I’ve enjoyed working with SCCM, Intune, and Azure AD, but my real passion is coding.

Outside of work, I’m a self taught developer and I’ve spent ~10 years programming, contributing to open source and running a homelab: building Go/Python backends, writing proxies and CLIs, and maintaining Linux/Windows servers, containers (docker, kubernetes), and virtualized setups.

I’m now looking to move into software development full‑time and turn my passion into a living.

Available for remote work worldwide, very flexible across time zones. Looking for permanent or contract positions. Hi! I’m Olga, an experienced software engineer looking for frontend or fullstack projects.

I have experience building greenfield projects and complex features that “just work,” as well as diving into complex legacy codebases, fixing “unfixable” bugs, and performing major refactoring.

In addition to React/Next.js and Node/Express.js development, I also have experience with cloud-native workflows (Golang + Kubernetes), OpenAI API integration and agentic workflows, native iOS development, and game development. Thanks to my multi-platform experience, I can help you port large products across different platforms.
