SEEKING WORK - UK based and often found working remotely connected via Skype, forums & email.

Areas where I am strong.....

* Alcohol production - bet that got your attention ;)

* Manual testing of social media apps/games, digital campaigns, websites and mobile & tablet (iOS, Android & Blackberry) apps

* Asking the "stupid" questions... why test what you can see when you can query why the design was created the way it was and whether the target market has any specific foibles.

SEEKING WORK | REMOTE | Europe (DE)

I'm a platform engineer. I make API's that power web, mobile, and tablet applications. I also make the clients that consume then. You should hire me for any of these reasons:

* You need an API built

* You want to use Ember

* You want to use Rails

I prefer to work with tech companies. I'm available for remote work or possible onsite commitments in Europe (depending on location). I prefer short term contracts so I can deliver you something quickly.

You can find my code on github: http://github.com/twinturbo

SEEKING WORK - based in London, though working remotely

We are a small web development team mainly focused on Ruby/Rails, along with expertise across the rest of the stack - CoffeeScript, Spine.js, SASS, LESS, Chef, PostgreSQL, Redis etc. We have domain expertise integrating with external APIs such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter, and also in handling high load both in terms of web traffic and background processing with Sidekiq or Resque.

We are a whole team who work well together. We can either integrate to your existing dev team or take and implement a standalone project. As many of us are overseas (China, Ireland) we are less expensive than many other development companies (£400 - £500 / day or potentially £55k / year per developer depending on project length, size of team etc).

I personally am based in London and have 12 years professional development experience. If you would like details on projects we have done as a team, just send me a quick email.

SEEKING FREELANCER looking for a "data reporter", Burlingame, CA and/or remote

About Us

We think that OkTrends (http://blog.okcupid.com/) is one of the best blogs for compiling research on real-life usage patterns in an interesting, visual, way, and we want to re-create it for car-buying.

We also think that people should be able to buy a car using the internet for as much of the transaction as possible. Our mission at CarWoo!(YC S09) is to become "THE Transactional Car Buying and Selling Marketplace." We are getting closer to our goal all the time, and have now seen many thousands of transactions come through the site. We're sitting on piles and piles of data, and we need to get it out in a more broad way.

To fulfill our mission, we have to get the word out about who we are. That's where you come in.

About You

You should be curious about patterns in data, have a background in research or other relevant experience, and have a knack for writing in a way that is relatable to ordinary folks, yet packed with insight and deep understanding.

More Details

We've got lots of ideas on posts, you'll be free to add your ideas to the pot also. As far as the actual content of the posts, think lots of charts, statistical analysis of our data, and a story around everything from who our visitors are, to what times of the year people do their car-buying, to trending & popular cars, etc.

If you're interested, email me at adamc@carwoo.com This would be an ongoing project, with a steady stream of work.

SEEKING WORK -- Delhi, India (Remote work preferred; I am also willing to travel)

I'm a software developer and operations guy. I love taking on interesting and challenging projects where there's a lot of figuring out to do and an elegant system to be built. I have more than eleven years of paid work experience; I have been hacking and programming for much longer than that.

The five most recent languages I used are .NET/C#, XSLT, JavaScript/node.js, Windows PowerShell, and shell script, with a side of HTML5 and CSS.

WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU

Pretty much anything, but here’s what I absolutely love doing:

1. Setting up servers. I love building servers on AWS and Azure, and more generally, setting up an infrastructure for app deployment/website hosting, like on Google App Engine, Heroku, or static sites on S3. I love building out the automated scripts and processes that take your code, build it, and deploy it to one of these.

2. Packaging software. I love writing Windows installers for all sorts of software, and even more so, developing tools and build scripts that actually generate installers.

3. Automating stuff. I love writing scripts and software to automate anything and everything, from simple Microsoft Word document processing, to more complex Node.js scripts to send out hundreds of email messages per second via Amazon SES.

CONTACT ME

You can contact me via email: nik@niksci.com or Skype: ndabas.

On a side note, I like using Elance as a project management and escrow platform, and you can check out my Elance profile (work history + client reviews) at http://niksci.elance.com/. On Elance, I am usually ranked among the top 1000 contractors, out of a total of nearly 150,000.

Thanks, Nik.
