Senior full-stack engineer & tech lead, 10+ yrs, Python/Django-first. I ship MVPs that reach production and stabilize/modernize legacy systems without breaking what works. Comfortable across backend, frontend, and infra.

Strong on SaaS, integrations and data flows: Zapier apps (Platform/CLI), ERPs, billing, CRMs, webhooks, ETL — plus LLM integrations (OpenAI/Claude). Years spent making systems talk to each other reliably.

Ex-Zapier (integrations), ex-Tesorio. Experience across SaaS, fintech, and e-commerce.

I am a people & open source obsessed Product Manager with over 10 years of experience working on databases and developer platforms. I was an iOS developer for 5 years prior.

I have lead product teams at:

- Grafana Labs (Loki, k6)

- Sauce Labs (Sauce Orchestrate, Modern Frameworks)

- Cloudflare (Workers KV, Cloudflare Queues, Pub/Sub)

- Salesforce (Mobile Platform)

I am looking to get more focused on the people side of tech, either through expanding into a role where I help other PMs grow & succeed or through pivoting to UX Research or Developer Advocacy. I am also looking for volunteer OSS opportunities.

I prefer to be in roles where I have high agency and the ability to act directly.

Location: Charleston, SC

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: If assistance is provided

Technologies: Grafana Loki / k6, Cloudflare Workers / Developer Platform, Sauce Labs / Selenium, iOS Development, IoT Device development

   Location: Farmington, NM (Four Corners)
   Remote: Yes, required
   Willing to relocate: No
   Technologies: Linux (Ubuntu), bash, Python, nginx, Cloudflare (DNS/Tunnel/Workers),
     SQLite, Flask, git, Claude Code/CLI orchestration, cron/systemd, backup/restore
     (rclone/R2), homelab ops (20+ production services)
   Résumé/CV: https://laurensjones.com | https://laurensjones.com/resume.pdf
   Email: laurens.whipple@gmail.com
 ```

 USAF Staff Sergeant (weather forecaster, 2001–2007) and former backup/storage admin at Constant Contact. Spent the intervening years doing things that
 don't look like tech on a resume. Came back to the terminal about 18 months ago and haven't stopped.

 I run a production homelab: 20+ cron-driven services (trading pipelines, daily digests, NLP scraping, EEG tools), real backup/restore cycles tested
 against R2, incident response on live systems, published open-source tooling (github.com/responsiblparty). I use Claude Code as a force multiplier for
 orchestration — I spec, I verify, I own the outcome.

 Not a senior engineer. Closer to a capable junior-mid ops generalist with high autonomy and a real bias toward things staying up. Starting EMT-B in
 August, so healthcare IT / clinical informatics is a natural fit, and async schedules work well.

 Looking for remote Linux ops, junior sysadmin, or MSP support roles. Contract fine.

Senior backend developer, ~20 years, looking for full-time senior backend work.

Location: Alabaster, AL (Birmingham area) Remote: Yes (strongly preferred) Willing to relocate: Open to discuss Resume/CV: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WTvOBA6-ALtwNL9YXPJwu7WK... | linkedin.com/in/jamescookplease Email: jcook.rubyist at gmail dot com

I'm at my best cleaning up messes. Good fits: legacy systems nobody wants to touch, financial data that has to be right, performance work, or the quietly-expensive infrastructure everyone's been avoiding. Mostly Ruby/Rails, on systems where correctness and money matter.

What I'm strongest at:

Ruby/Rails, ~20 years, deep on the backend Database performance and correctness (Postgres/MySQL, query optimization, migrations that don't lose data) Financial and billing systems (billing/subscription integrations, cost-to-serve reporting, and keeping financial data correct across systems)

Experienced but not specialist:

AI-directed development: I use Claude every day, but I stay in charge of the design and I read everything it writes. It's wrong in predictable places, and I know where to look. Building LLM-powered features (a natural-language-to-SQL reporting tool with safe parameterization, an MCP server over real data) Infrastructure and background processing (AWS, Heroku, Cloudflare Workers, Sidekiq/GoodJob)

Dabbled, would enjoy more of:

Golang (a side project: client, background daemon, IPC), TypeScript/Preact, some C (a Ruby C-extension CSS parser)

Looking for senior backend work at a company doing durable, useful stuff, where systems judgment actually matters. Thanks for reading.
