Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (June 2018)

I build and maintain Rails apps and grow online communities.

I co-wrote the “Ruby Cookbook” (over 1,000+ pages of Ruby) and “Programming for PaaS” published by O’Reilly media.

I’ve built multiple Rails websites that scaled to millions of users, 10’s of millions of database records, and hundreds of thousands of customers.

I’ve also raised $9.8 million from leading venture capitalists, lead a team of 45 employees, and negotiated and closed a major acquisition with a Fortune 150.

I have a proven track record of writing scalable code and growing large online communities with cutting edge content marketing techniques.

I stand out because I’ve been in your shoes. I know what it’s like to struggle to build my dream, and I know the secrets to achieving your goals.

Reach out to me, I’d love to hear your story.

I am Robin and have been doing commercial software development for 15 years. I've worked on a large variety of stacks, including Javascript, C#, Java, Ruby on Rails and PHP. I've written useful code in Haskell, Scala, and C, and I've developed FPGA-based systems in Verilog. Oh, and I've done a fair bit of React and Redux, including giving a talk explaining Redux at a local meet-up.

I've also managed developers and lead multi-disciplinary teams in agile environments. I enjoy mentoring and working with other developers and non-developers to design good solutions and then implement them.

I have a PhD in Computer Science if that floats your boat; 95% of the time it's no use at all, but occasionally if we need something fancy I know where to look for it.

I'm looking for interesting projects where my polyglot skills and wide range of experience will come in handy, either in developing software, or helping you work out how to develop better. I enjoy working with others but can also work well alone if you just need something doing quickly and well.

Hi, I’m Lee Whalen, Principal of Fuzzy Logic, a Seattle-Based DevOps consultancy with deep experience in providing business results through technical solutions.

We help SaaS companies save money on hosting through extensive automation - infrastructure deployment, code-checking/deploy, CI/CD - and good-practices for on-premise or public cloud management.

Business results we’ve obtained for our Clients include:

+ Savings in excess of $1.4M/yr by environment-wide migrations from Rackspace fully managed hardware to a privately hosted Openstack environment

+ A 33% savings from previous OpEx through optimizing public-cloud spend, replacing expensive SaaS products with internal services, etc

+ Cut DevOps engineer 'time to first commit' from two weeks to two days with documentation and optimized onboarding processes

Hey all! My name's Neill. I'm your local linux enthusiast, web developer, cyclist, travel bug, and serial entrepreneur addicted to making cool stuff with awesome people.

I'm an experienced full-stack engineer and have been working with various companies and startups over the past four years and have taken on roles that include quality assurance engineering, frontend web development, mobile development, backend / database work, linux server administration.. if you have a vision I can own development from front to back and make it happen.

I'm always on the lookout for awesome workplaces with strong, engineering-driven culture to connect with and possibly be a part of and help grow. I learn very quickly and am always excited for whatever comes my way.
