SEEKING WORK - San Francisco or Remote

Do you need help with a hardware project - circuit design or embedded software? Much of my recent work has been on wireless connectivity (Bluetooth, Wifi, Zigbee), but in the past I've written firmware and designed hardware for industrial machines and for robotic systems.

Please get in touch if you have a project you'd like to discuss.

I'm a data scientist / machine learning engineer who researches and implements various ml pipelines (ad optimization, ad matching, revenue optimization) in R, python, ruby, java, and/or hadoop as appropriate. I understand how to scale models and data pipelines but won't waste time with hadoop/hive unless absolutely necessary.

Skills:

- R expert;

- hadoop/hive, on emr or on real machines;

- ML (regression/glm, gradient boosting, rf, neural nets, trees)

- data cleaning and insights

SEEKING WORK / REMOTE (London)

System Administrator AKA DevOps Engineer

I’ve years of experience as a system administrator, and even more with computers in general (going back to 8-bit demoscene). In past I’ve been working with various companies from different places in the world, from startups to large US corporations.

I was performing migrations from live datacenters, Linux and BSD based environments to AWS and Rackspace, using Puppet since days when it was in versions like 0.24, was designing and writing full stack automation platforms using bleeding edge technologies like Python, Basho Riak, Zookeeper, FreeBSD Jails, XenServer and many others.

I am always happy to talk about your project and how I could see it improved, free of charge - its always worth to talk :)
