Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (August 2014)

Expert full-stack iOS & Android & Windows Phone developer. Years of start-up experience as engineer #1 and CTO. Highly adaptable to changing conditions. I've built about $800M+ worth of revenue generating products over the years which includes video games, desktop apps, mobile apps, websites, digital products and physical products.

Want someone who ships product? That's me.

How good of a mobile developer am I?

I have regularly taught weeklong corporate training classes covering Android Bootcamp, Android Advanced, Android Internals, iOS Bootcamp, iOS Advanced and Windows Phone Advanced to a client list that includes Intel, Apple, Samsung, Qualcomm, Facebook, Paypal/eBay, SONY, Activision and Microsoft. I have travelled all over the world to present corporate training classes. In the past six months I have taught more than 300 professionally employeed senior engineers about developing for mobile platforms.

I code for the client back-end, client front-end, UI, UX, server-stack back-end, do visual and graphic design, handle project management, fight fires and rescue projects. I even do big data, machine learning, hardware design, video procesisng, vision recognition, 3D graphics, augmented reality, robotics and device drivers.

Obviously, because I cover all three platforms, I can handle Java, .NET, C#, Objective-C and C/C++ along with most of the easier to understand scripting languages such as Ruby, JavaScript, Coffeescript, Lua, Python, PHP, SQL and so forth.

I am gregarious and outgoing, good at evangelizing, professionally attired, have excellent networking and mingling skills, a reasonably experienced marketing background and am both business-oriented and financially savvy. I mentor and advise a number of entrepreneurs and start-ups about building their products. I have nursed projects back to health after they have gotten off-course due to technical misteps and rescued multi-million dollar projects from going down in flames. I've worked as a solo-entrepreneur, a solo-engineer, small-team engineer and lead a 100+ person cross-disciplinary team for a product that had $300M of marketing behind it. I write code every day.

I have availability right now and am considering a change of pace from the travelling I have been engaged in for the past 18 months. Opportunities abound, I just need to find the right one.

Location: I have a loft in San Francisco, CA, a condo in Los Angeles, CA and a small flat in Portland, OR. I can be at any one of those locations at a moment's notice if I need to be on-site with the client. Would prefer remote work though as the weather is nice in L.A. right now and the ocean calls me to me every evening when the sun is setting and the surfboards come out.

I WILL BUILD YOUR MVP FOR YOU.

I have 3.5 years of Ruby on Rails experience and 2.5 years of Clojure. I like working with SaaS and building MVP's, especially SaaS MVP's. I've built a ton of MVP's for my own startup ideas and can build yours.

Don't need an MVP built? I can still do the general Rails work, help you migrate off of Heroku, etc.

What you get working with me:

I will help you get your site ready for an awesome launch so you can beat your competitors and start making money.

Hassle-free hosting so you will save time. You don't have to worry about backups, etc.

Reliability. If I decide to take on a project with you, you’ll have my number and can reach me. I can start right away and will give you updates as often as you'd like.

Save tons of time. I don't really like being micromanaged. If you're the type of person to micro manage then it’s not going to be a good fit. I like being free to work on the project and complete the tasks as I see fit and you can just not worry about me getting it done.

Transparency: My rate is 3000 a week. I won't bullshit your time away and we'll get things done quickly. My rate also increases quickly.
