SEEKING FREELANCER - Remote is fine, we're based in Chicago if you want to meet up in person, mainly using PHP/MySQL in various forms.

I run a small not-for-profit that does all of its work online in the field of Contemporary Art. We serve an audience of more than 1 million unique visitors per year despite having a tiny budget. We are a team of four full-time staff, but as the founder I am also the sole web developer for all of our websites. I'd like to find someone we can work with periodically on a project-by-project basis, and have some small, quick, easy projects to start. These are mainly things I could do myself given the time to focus on them, but that inevitably haven't gotten done.

Because we are a not-for-profit, we don't have a lot of money so cost unfortunately will be a factor in who we can work with and how much work we can afford to commission at a given time. The ideal for me would be to find someone great who we can return to again and again. My task list for a programmer is endless if we can find the money and the right partner.

Please email me directly with any questions! If interested, please include the amount you'd ask per hour and a couple of past clients I could get in touch with: forrest @@ contemporaryartdaily.com

Gratefully, Forrest

SEEKING WORK - Remote, travel possible depending on location and duration.

Location: North-east UK

What I do: Backend engineer / Sysadmin.

Do you need a backend service to talk to your flashy new web / mobile app? Does your current build and deployment system give you nightmares about the only dev who understands it falling under a bus? Need a proof-of-concept for your latest, hard-to-pigeonhole idea?

I do have experience of the full stack (including AngularJS and Coffeescript; see below) but am looking for work primarily involving the back end of the stack, or server admin / reliability / scaling. In previous lives I've run large-scale Debian installations doing devops before it had a name, and been responsible for servers in Antarctica.

Recent work:

* Feasibility study investigating the possiblility of writing custom code to interface with a biometric timeclock (Common Lisp)

* Proof-of-concept hardware development for projects linking the physical and virtual worlds in real time (Arduino, Node.js)

* Project management webapp for construction companies (Rails, AngularJS, Bootstrap)

Buzzwords: Debian, Ubuntu, Chef, AWS, Heroku, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Perl, Common Lisp, Ruby, Go, Arduino / AVR

Tools: Git for version control, Jira for issue tracking, HipChat to keep in touch.

Got something you think is a good fit? Drop me a line at mike -at- lambdafunctions -dot- com

SEEKING WORK - Victoria, BC (or Vancouver is possible) or remote

I am the director of a hackerspace in Victoria with good manufacturing facilities, so although my primary expectation here is for programming work, hardware prototyping is also a possibility. (As is synthetic biology, my main non-programming interest at the moment, although I'm not sure what a synbio freelancer gig would look like!)

My preferred languages at the moment are c# (mostly in unity) and python. I do a reasonable amount of MATLAB coding for my current electroencephalography project.

In the past I've done significant C++ projects and a lot of backend programming. I spent 10 years at Microsoft in a variety of roles including several years on a Microsoft research speech recognition project.

Resume is here: http://biobit.ca/derekja_resume.pdf

Thanks for looking!
