SEEKING WORK - Remote/Chicago

Designer/Front-End Developer.

Best suited working with developers who know they need better design but don't know how to get from A to B. Also good working with design/dev/consulting agencies (experience with everything from two man shops to bigger firms like McKinsey and Edelman).

All work is done in the browser, meaning no time is wasted on Photoshop back-and-forth. Iteration is quick and actionable for everyone involved.

Specific skills: HTML, CSS, JavaScript. Can develop in: Meteor, WordPress. Familiar with: Ruby on Rails (asset pipeline) and Django.

All work is vc'd with Git. Comfortable working in an existing repo or starting from scratch.

I work on a day rate @ $600/day (8 hours). Also willing to bid on projects flat if the scope is both reasonable/fixed.

Take a peek at recent work:

SEEKING WORK - Remote or Germany

I am running a two man web, print and iOS agency (me coding, my partner moving pixels). We are located in Heidelberg and Leipzig / Germany.

I have been a freelancer for 10 years. I prefer Django and Python but I also have shipped projects with Ruby (Sinatra, RoR), C++ and PHP (Wordpress). Server administration was and still is part of my daily life as writing solid, test covered code and doing the usual frontend work.

My partner studies printing technologies and joined me after finishing her apprenticeship as digital media designer, as one of the three best graduates in her year. Her daily work includes designing logos and brands (business cards, catalogs,...) and making the things I build pretty.

We typically work with freelancers and small businesses but also realized big projects for international clients.

If you are interested in working with us - or one of us - you can send us an email at info@blazeit.de
