Hi interested reader! I'm an experienced System Engineer turned Solution, Cloud and Technical/Infrastructure Architect, my knowledge is quite broad but focussed on Cloud and Automation. I am a consultant, I have my own company (1 man company) and work short to long term opportunities. I love to share my knowledge and to design the perfect solutions that will contribute to your company's success! I design in-house solutions (from private-cloud to HA systems, DR, and more) as well as purely (public) Cloud solutions, my preferred Cloud platform is AWS but I have experience with other platforms as well. I also have experience with Docker/Container solutions, both in production as well as in DEV/ACC. If you're looking for an experienced Architect with real hands-on experience, able to talk with all sides and linking business with tech, don't hesitate to contact me!

SEEKING WORK - Remote (GMT+2)

Building software applications is as much about coding as it is about understanding and solving the actual business problems!

I'm a Zend & SensioLabs certified web developer / consultant with a focus on solving business problems and adding value through product optimisation. This can be done in many ways: creating a new application, suggesting an action plan or architecture, optimizing current set-up / architecture / applications, etc.

At the moment my technology focus is on PHP, Symfony, AWS, MongoDB, MySQL, APIs, JavaScript, Vue, Node.js, and Docker. I also care a lot about security (InfoSec), performance, quality, best practices & continuous learning. You can contact me for projects at http://ifdattic.com

Few of the problems I solved for my clients:

    * optimize infrastructure to reduce costs by $10000+ per year
    * custom applications for improving work flows (document 
      submission, sports coaching, inventory system, etc.)
    * teaching students how to create web applications
    * set up coding standards, testing practices,
      development environment, fix security vulnerabilities,
      document inner workings of an application
    * implement CAS authentication for Single Sign On (SSO)
    * implement direct file upload to AWS S3
    * implement secure file download from AWS S3
    * profile and optimize performance

SEEKING FREELANCER: Deep Learning Retreat | Part-time instructor | San Francisco | REMOTE | Part-time

Side gig for someone who loves teaching and mentoring. Can be on a weekend day, make sure your contract with your fulltime employer allows that. If you don't know deep learning to a level you can teach it but know classical ML, you are good. You are a specialist in one ML domain. You're a good communicator, you're self-sufficient & you're passionate about the work you do.

==Mission==

Take 'Bedroom deep learning' to the next level. Every participant comes out of the door with a portfolio project that has social impact, ideally at scale.

At DLR, we believe (in spite of the hype) deep learning is actually underappreciated. It has more potential to generate an impact than most other technologies. Big companies (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Netflix, Waymo, Uber, Apple, etc.) are ‘killing it’ using deep learning in their products. You hear you need lots of data and computation to build anything remotely useful. This is just not true. You don’t need to be a corporation to have ridiculous amounts of effect with deep learning!

The more we talk to companies interviewing today, the more apparent it is: A portfolio project is decisive when making hiring judgments. Jeremy Howard recommends it. Andrew Ng recommends it. Why? It’s far better at discriminating talent than any other proxy (CVs don’t work; pedigree doesn’t work; puzzles don’t work).

You can read more about our method here: https://deeplearningretreat.com/method-and-manifesto/ See also the kind of projects we build: a combination of cheap hardware and deep learning that produces serious social impact.

==Company Values==

https://deeplearningretreat.com/work-at-dlr/ We follow the 'Teal' model (Book: reinventing organizations). The company has a strong purpose and everyone is autonomous and empowered.

Other instructors tell us that they learn a lot by teaching here. You can join anyone else's session anytime.

We are customer funded.

==Interview==

Video call (1 hr) >> Test (3 hrs) >> teaching to DLR participants (half-to-full day)
