SEEKING WORK - Remote

At least, one very specific type of work. Tarsnap keeps me busy enough that I don't have time for much consulting, but I'd love to work with any companies which have products built on FreeBSD and want to get them onto EC2.

My qualifications: I'm the guy who made FreeBSD on EC2 happen. :-)

We are a passionate team of experienced Java developers located in Wroclaw, Poland (2 hr direct flights to major European cities), mixing Spring and Hibernate with SCRUM and JIRA to produce advanced web applications, currently working with clients from Stevenage, the UK and Palo Alto, US. We have just released an online market for physical gold trading capable of handling 10k+ concurrent users with horizontally scalable architecture.

We are looking for new challenges. You can find out more about our works in the Portfolio section of our website: http://www.codedose.com

SEEKING WORK (August only, have a free spot between clients)

Full stack developer, I like launching products. (From customer research to user experience design, ruby back-end development and Ember.Js front-end. Lean startup approach, lots of analytics and learning/adapting as we go. Think co-founder for hire rather than CTO or tech lead)

I'm based in London, open to remote work and I have a network of people for larger projects. Plenty of relevant experience launching things quickly and adapting them to fit a market. See my profile for email :)

(Note: I love to chat about new businesses anyway. Even if you don't want to hire me, email me for a free chat and my thoughts on what you're doing)

SEEKING WORK - Remote or travel around Europe fine. Native British developer based in Warsaw, Poland.

Back-end and front-end jack-of-all-trades, concentrating on PHP/C#/MySQL, experienced with Apache/Nginx/IIS, and general Linux admin.

A few sample projects I work on in my spare time, using PHP/Kohana/MySQL/jQuery:

http://track-chat.com (also uses Erlang, but I am by no means an expert!)

http://interactwive.com

http://tweetingmachine.com

I'm very good at finding solutions to complex problems, enjoy rescuing projects in trouble, and like working with technology in general.

I always enjoy chatting about projects, whether they're in the planning stages or just need a bit of help.

SEEKING WORK, remote or shorter on-site gigs. I'm based in Minneapolis and can travel.

I like solving hard problems. The point of computers is making life as a human easier, and my favorite thing is taking something complicated and difficult and making it seem easy and powerful to the user--whether the user is an end user or another programmer. In the past I worked for a Big Finance Company, working on things Enterprise Java and big databases, distributed systems architecture, full-stack HTML5 apps, expressing business logic with domain-specific languages, and performance and consistency of trade processing systems. I know a few different languages but am best with Java and Clojure.

Here's my current (languishing) pet project, a context-free grammar parser with an intuitive front-end: https://github.com/eightnotrump/clearley

(shameless plug)

We recently launched a new version of http://www.myrudis.com. It's a new take on the freelance marketplace model with key, important differences. Freelancers, keep 100% of your income. Most importantly, SPAM issues are obliterated. You'll no longer drown in bids from individuals who didn't even read the project description. Employers, find freelancers who are really serious about the gig.

Hopefully that is acceptable for this thread. I realize it's some self-promotion, but really relevant.
