At this point in my career, I consider myself a generalist. Most of the work I've done so far has been web-related, but I'm always eager for a chance to pick up new skills outside of a typical CRUD app. While I may not specialize in anything in particular, I can get up-to-speed with the problems I'm given and be productive very quickly. I love learning and understand that learning has to be balanced with shipping. Big data, search, and space are just a few of the things that interest me.

If you are solving hard problems that require some serious brainwork before diving in and are looking for a generalist, let's chat.

My name is Mark, I expect to complete my PhD in computational physics this summer, and am looking to become a data scientist. With a background in electrical engineering, I'm especially interested in applying the tools of machine learning and data science to systems in the real world. I've really enjoyed completing Andrew Ng's online machine learning course and participating in Kaggle contests, and I can't wait to get started making a difference at your company!

I'm an EU citizen, and willing relocate elsewhere in Europe, or North America.

Remote/Relocation (almost anywhere), Part Time/Contract Stack: F# preferred (could do C#/Haskell too), Linux preferred (could do others too) I specialize in Mono+Gtk#+etc References & CV on request. Contact: knocte at gmail

Do I read this right that you do F# on linux as a preference? Could I ask how you manage this? Last time I tried setting up mono defeated me to be honest!

Overview: "data scientist" looking to develop quantitatively oriented systems requiring automation.

I am the primary developer of CrossCat (https://github.com/mit-probabilistic-computing-project/cross...), the backend of BayesDB (https://github.com/mit-probabilistic-computing-project/Bayes...).

I've developed infrastructure to

* programmatically create VMs for deployment, https://github.com/mit-probabilistic-computing-project/vm-in...

* programmatically deploy a Jenkins server to EC2 to run performance diagnostics for stochastic systems, https://github.com/mit-probabilistic-computing-project/jenki...

Experienced developer with a strong background in Mathematics looking for small to medium projects (approx. 20 hrs/week). I enjoy writing reliable code in strongly typed functional languages, or using the techniques of strongly-typed functional programming in other languages. Contact me if you're interested in using those techniques to write verifiably correct code.

Location: outskirts of Ithaca, NY. I'm not relocating but up to 50% travel is possible.

Stack: I've programmed in just about everything, but lately I've been focused on deep Java, Hadoop, and cloud native systems.

Linked In: www.linkedin.com/in/paulhoule/

I succeed where others fail when it comes to Linked Data, RDF and generic databases that reflect the world of human experience. I've spent the last year developing tools and techniques that let me repeatably do in 24 hours what other people will put a team on for six months with a 30% chance of success.

I'm interested in developing systems that make subjective decisions, such as full text systems. I'm frustrated with both how most search systems ignore the TREC evaluation methodology but also with how academics are all to happy to beat their competitors by 1%. I'm looking for people to work with who need precision that users can feel.

I'm comfortable doing any role. I've worked on backend, frontend at a startup and done data related activities on the side or through online courseware I've taken (I've done a lot of this).

Ideally I'd love to work at a startup where I work on a mix of backend and data/ML roles.
