SEEKING WORK - Remote OK (or Toronto)

I am a full-stack web developer and have been freelancing for a couple years now -- previously I was the CTO/cofounder of an acquired startup, and I have more than a decade of professional development experience under my belt.

My preferred weapon of choice is Ruby on Rails and its associated stack -- I've been working with Rails for 8 years, so I know the entire stack and ecosystem backwards and forwards. Other alphabet soup: Coffeescript, jQuery, Heroku, AWS, Ubuntu, Vagrant, etc.

I am looking for contract/freelance work on large or small projects alike. I frequently work with US and other international companies remotely (with site visits if necessary).

SEEKING WORK - Android Developer in Adelaide, Australia (will consider remote work / in other cities)

I am an experienced Android developer (nearly 5 years of Android development). I have a very deep knowledge of the Android SDK and of Android UI/UX guidelines which is essential to create great Android apps with an "Android" feeling.

While in London I have worked for great companies like IG Group (the largest global CFD provider) and Bloomberg.

SEEKING FREELANCER - Remote (SF Bay Area)

I'm looking for a Drupal 7 developer with very strong experience themeing, creating complex Views, and writing custom modules. Looking for someone who believes in doing things the "Drupal way" as opposed to creating short-term hacks. Must be comfortable with git. Organic Groups experience is a plus.

We'd start you out with a small, paid project setting up a slightly-more-complicated-than-usual View on an existing site and then themeing it, to see how you do. If we're a good fit for working together, I have a number of large projects in the pipeline I could use your help with on an ongoing basis.

I'm looking for someone who is a full-time, independent freelancer -- i.e, someone's who's available to collaborate/Skype/email during typical US working hours.

Get in touch via the email address in my profile and let me know your Drupal.org ID, and any relevant D7 sites that you've built (and your role in them). Thanks!
