Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/frazerkirkman, http://frazerk.net/cv/tech.html, http://frazerk.net/testimonials

4 years tech experience, 10 years community building and seminar presentation experience.

Roles that would suit me: Tech evangelist, vibe manager, full stack engineer, UX consultant, technical writer or communicator, product manager or futurist. I'd excel in a role where I can be technical and also work with people, with room to contribute ideas, passion, and business skills.

I've won algorithm competition prizes, was top of most of my programming and math classes, and tutored in Java and C while I was at university.

I learned a lot running my own business for the last 4 years involving positivity psychology and a retreat center, giving hundreds of workshops and public seminars. Many of my presentations have been to hundreds of people, even conferences to thousands of people over 4 days. I managed bookings, event creation, finances, and marketing.

I have a passion for education, mindfulness, health, positive psychology, virtual reality, and positive entertainment.

I am excited to branch out to new languages, and have been dabbling with AngularJS, go, coffeeScript, openGL, meteor, mongoDB, and would like to learn the flashiest html5, css3 magic. I'm a fast learner.

I'm a machine, so I'd be happy with a 9-7, but if the product or pay was right, I'd also be keen for a start-up culture, on call, 16 hour days, live-breath-sweat-create.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

I'm looking for a position to improve my tech skills. I've been investing a lot on Javascript and Ruby even if I come from a Java background. Love everything about backend development, I really believe in lean approaches. Also, I'm a linux nerd, I mostly prefer Vim over any other editor. Drop me a mail!

  Location: South Dakota, USA
  Remote: Yes
  Willing to relocate: No
  Technologies: Python, Linux, Windows, PostgreSQL, MySQL, C#, C, C++, git, bash; currently learning HTML5/CSS/Javascript and learning about the changes in C++11

I'm a software development generalist with a long history of learning whatever I need to do the job. I believe in simplicity in design and implementation whenever possible, in thorough testing, and in taking the time to understand your problem deeply before trying to solve it.

In the past I've worked on AI research in C and Python, telecom systems in C++ and Python, on Windows desktop software using C++, C#, and VBA, and assorted other projects scattered across four operating systems and at least seven languages.

I've typically worked on small teams, which means being the architect, developer, tester, database administrator, sysadmin, and even the front line support. I've successfully worked remotely for almost nine years and I'm looking for another remote opportunity to continue building solid software.

  Location: Rochester, NY
  Remote: Yes
  Willing to relocate: Yes
  Technologies: Python, Clojure, Ruby, JavaScript, Perl, R, HTML5/CSS, OSX, Linux, Postgres, MySQL, git, bash scripting
  Résumé/CV: http://www.bsima.me/pages/resume.html
  Email: bensima@gmail.com

I've done work in front-end web development, a little of backend work, some data science (actually, bioinformatics), and have been studying machine learning lately. My current (work-in-progress) project is Aristotl.co (https://github.com/bsima/aristotl) in which I apply machine learning algorithms to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy to make a graph of articles and analyze the references. (I studied philosophy in college.)

I'm looking for contract work or full-time positions in a place that will help me grow as an engineer and a person. Contact me if you're working on interesting problems.
