Interested in moving into the big data/analytics/machine learning field. I've started working on some of these problems and find myself more and more interested, so I'd like an opportunity to learn more and contribute in this area. I've done stuff in computer graphics, networking, GPGPU, image processing, classification and more. I like to cultivate a broad range of skills and drill down when I need to, so I consider myself able to contribute in a wide variety of ways.

Stack: Ruby, Rails, JS, iOS, ReST / API creation, HTML, CSS, MySQL, MongoDB; previous C, C++, Java, VB, some Python/PHP; expert in scalable infrastructure, elegant UI, complex business rules. CTO capable, but absolutely love to code and have maintained solid developer/designer skills. Contact me through Angel List or E-mail below.

  I've been working on personal projects for the past few years as a way to learn new technology. I'm quick to pick up new things. My most recent project is http://www.chazzen.com as a way to practice integrating with other website's rest/api.  The biggest thing I am looking for is an interesting project. I've been doing a lot with automation/scripting and it is something I enjoy. I use windows and mac daily and have been apart of the LUG for 10+ years.

Stack: C/C++, Python, Lisp (Common Lisp, Scheme, Clojure, Hy), OpenStack

Contact: In my CV, profile

10+ years of experience across a wide range of technologies. My passions are distributed systems, graphics, artificial intelligence, and compilers. I've worked on large and small web projects, object storage, devops, and contribute to open source projects such as Firefox, WebGL, Openstack, Hy, and others. I am completely self-taught.

I'm currently catching up on chemistry in my spare time. I'm enthusiastic about following the work of T.J. Hutton on artificial chemistries, artificial life, etc and even more recently, agronomy. I just built a raised garden box in my backyard and am setting up some sensors (based on the arduino board) to detect and report water levels. My goal is to find (or develop if I must) cheap (ish) sensors to detect more complex compounds such as phosphorous, nitrogen, carbon, potassium, etc. I hope to turn crop rotations into a constraint search/machine learning problem. Along the way I may end up optimizing the component cost of my raised boxes to make dense, affordable urban farming accessible to busy urban dwelling people (automate all the things!).

If you have a challenging problem or unique application that requires someone who is methodical and passionate about their craft then I might be the person you're looking for. I'm interested in projects related to science, game development/graphics, distributed systems, or computing environments (I believe the power of programming should be available to anyone who needs it in environments and languages they're accustomed to). I prefer to work on Open Source software where possible. If you need a technical co-founder for a really interesting project (something that could help us avoid the post-antibiotic future, adapt to climate change, are interested in exploring programming-system-as-operating-system, or bring back people traumatized by mathematics) you should send me an email and get in touch.

Stack: Clojure[Script], Javascript (Node & browser), Haskell, Go

At my current day job (a large megacorp), I build web applications and automation solutions using modern tools in support of internal workflow and process improvement. On a more general level, I love working with (and talking about) functional languages and write most of my code with a functional slant, and I'm comfortable working on both the front-end and back-end. I'm not a designer, but I value a good experience. Be sure to reach out if we have something in common or if you'd like to talk.
