SEEKING WORK

Contact me if you need the highest quality front-end work. I am an expert in client side technologies HTML/CSS/JavaScript, cross-browser development, front-end optimization and can help with all the buzzwords (CSS3, HTML5, media queries/mobile ready). As a bonus: good grasp on accessibility and usability.

I am equally well-wersed in server-side stuff (PHP, MySQL and RoR) but currently not interested in this kind of contract just that my domain knowledge there will be helpful and make communication easier.

Preferable tasks: design to code implementation, front-end optimization.

REMOTE only. I am in Vilnius, Lithuania.

SEEKING FREELANCER - Berkeley, CA - Remote OK

I'm a Drupal contractor in search of a good Drupal themer who can help me on projects. I have one immediate project and others coming down the pipe over the next few months. I would build the back-end and provide you with the functional site and PSDs so you can build the theme.

I'm looking for someone who: - Already has experience building themes for several Drupal sites - Is comfortable using the Zen theme - Never, never uses !important in stylesheets - Knows the difference between _padding-right and %padding-right. - Prefers to reuse CSS classes wherever possible rather than duplicating style declarations - Knows what l() and t() are and uses them - Generally available and responsive to emails in the 9a-5pm Pacific timeframe

It's a bonus if you know jQuery and excellent if you know PHP.

If interested please send me an email with a brief note about yourself and some links to work you've done. My email is in my profile. Thanks!

There are so many people out there looking for work, sometimes I think I could just be the middle man and take on 4-5x as many projects and just pass them on to these freelancers and make money that way...

If you can get 4x-5x the projects, that is definitely a good model to start your own web design company.

SEEKING FULL-TIME REMOTE

I've got lots of experience (3.5+ years on the job) and a degree in CS. I'm getting bored of agency work and would prefer to work with a respectable startup or well-known company. I've worked on sites of large companies. I've got lots of open sourced material and a blog I'm willing to share. I'm FULL of ideas with an entrepreneurial spirit. Interested parties must be willing to hear my idea rants every so often and at least appear vaguely amused or interested :)

* LAMP developer

* SQL skills

* Frontend developer skills (a boatload of jQuery)

* Zend/Kohana/Subversion/Git/Cap/Network Admin skills

* Love creating scalable code and solving scalability issues

* Client/agency experience

* Worked with NoSQL solutions in production.

* Love to learn, willing to pick up on technologies

* I'm on the east coast.

I consider myself more senior than junior. I've worked with my fair share of developers and realized I need to work with individuals sharing my passion.

Send details my way. I'll be sure to reply with a more appropriate introduction.

this is a throwaway.

Hmm. Lots of employers in the the on-site jobs thread. Lots of job seekers in the freelance thread. We've long had the technology to work remotely, now we're just waiting for corporations to catch up to the 21st century.
