SEEKING FREELANCERS - NYC only

LiquidTalent allows you to click a button and request a phone call with hiring companies (both contract and full-time).

Hirers need to respond within 15 minutes or else the request expries, and you'll know what they decide in that time.

We've been sourcing hiring companies from our personal networks, events we go to, etc.

Right now, we mostly have web and mobile projects with clients based in NYC. If that doesn't help you, you can still sign up, and we'll let you know once we expand.

We're still in the early stages, so any constructive feedback is appreciated.

We're a vetted community, so email me at ken@liquidtalent.com and mention HN if you'd like me to fast track your application.

SEEKING WORK - London UK, consultancy, mostly remote. NO RECRUITERS.

I'm a DevOps consultant with 15 years experience hosting web applications and I'm on the lookout for interesting new projects.

I work closely with dev teams throughout the project lifecycle (d'oh, DevOps!) to build scalable and long-term robust architectures. Load testing, continuous integration, deploy systems, monitoring, post-mortems, dev projects of my own - you name it I've done it. For larger organisations I've even built & led whole infrastructure teams.

Recent work includes:

+ AWS/Docker platform to securely host a large public-sector microservice-based web app taking millions of pounds per month (yes, PCI) in payments.

+ Physical platform hosting a large, successful news site for the financial sector.

+ Large multithreaded Python 3 application for automated cryptocurrency trading. Don't try this, you won't get rich.

+ Lots, lots more.
