SEEKING WORK -- remote

I'm a full stack developer based in Europe. I'm primarily a rubyist, but I think languages are an implementation detail, and I'm comfortable in any language. I like to tackle hard engineering problems, my main expertise is optimizing performance of large scale web applications. Last position was Project Lead on a medium sized Rails codebase. I've also worked for YC startups before.

SEEKING WORK - Remote or travel around Europe fine. Native British developer based in Warsaw, Poland.

Back-end and front-end jack-of-all-trades, concentrating on PHP/Python/jQuery/Angular/MySQL, experienced with Apache/Nginx/IIS, and general Linux admin, plus the odd bit of AWS and EMR fun.

A few sample projects I work on in my spare time, using PHP/Laravel/MySQL/Angular/jQuery:

https://www.wphub.com

http://track-chat.com (also uses Erlang, but I am by no means an expert!)

http://www.cuteleads.com

http://interactwive.com

http://tweetingmachine.com

I'm very good at finding solutions to complex problems, enjoy rescuing projects in trouble, and like working with technology in general.

I always enjoy chatting about projects, whether they're in the planning stages or just need a bit of help; drop me an email today at tom@tbbpolska.com and I'll be delighted to have a chat :)

SEEKING FREELANCER Elevate | iOS Engineer | REMOTE or Bay Area, part time or full time

Apple's App of the Year in 2014. http://elevateapp.com

I work full-time on Elevate's iOS app. We make brain training games, so most of the company works on cross-platform games. I'm the one responsible for everything on iOS that isn't a game.

We ship improvements to the app and a new game every month. You would take your own tasks and help with code review for each release.

Objective C and some C++ experience is necessary, we also use Swift in some isolated places, and would like to use Swift wherever feasible.

The app is very animation heavy. CoreAnimation experience is useful. Understanding what causes performance issues and how to use Xcode's profiling tools is useful too. We have really talented designers who cry when you build ugly things.

It's a pretty chill gig. We probably need at least half of your time around a deadline, but usually you can spend as much time as you want working on stuff. The well of tasks never runs dry. We have an office, but Slack+Trello means you can work from anywhere.

Send at least your Github username to me: david+hn@elevateapp.com

Links to anything you've done that is on the App Store is way more interesting to me than a resume.

SEEKING WORK - Silicon Valley or Remote

Principal technical founder of an ad-tech startup - available for contract engagements.

I bring to the table 15+ years of experience in software development, architecture and operations, as well as product management / marketing and business development. Available to supplement and/or guide your existing team - think of the biggest challenges your operation is facing and what kind of problems your staff is not currently equipped to solve. While my particular strength is "connecting the dots" across various disciplines, I am always happy to get my hands dirty to get projects delivered. I've had experience with Silicon Valley companies throughout their entire lifecycle, going back to the original dot-com era.

While I have some level of experience with a very long list of technologies, above all I believe in pragmatic approach to choosing tools to fit the task at hand. The most recent/intimate experience in the current stack has been with delivering scale, performance and fault-tolerance in Big Data operations using the following principal technologies:

- Front-End : Python, Django, JavaScript, Bootstrap

- Backend/IDL : Java, Thrift, Avro, Protobufs

- Data Stores : Hadoop/HBase, Redis, MySQL/PgSQL

- Data Science : Custom-engineered algorithms/solvers with performance way above off-the-shelf packages

Due to the sensitive nature of my current committments, details on my background would only be available to qualified clients able to articulate the specific problems they need help with.
