Hi, I'm Michael Geary. I've programmed in many languages and environments over the years. Some of my current interests are:

• Aviation and geographic data. For example, airspace and obstacle data importers for Wing; election results and voter information maps for Google; many interactive maps for other companies.

• Hardware interfacing. In a way, I am a "full stack" developer, but my stack may involve a front end to a piece of hardware rather than the cloud. I first got into programming via ham radio, so RF hardware remains an interest.

• Designing and building APIs. Too often an API is designed by exposing the internals of whatever system provides the API. My philosophy is the opposite: start with the apps. I like to build a series of sample apps before starting on the API. This way I can imagine what API will make those apps and others like them easy to build.

• Talk with users! I don't like to sit in a back room cranking out code. I want to make sure it's the right code for what my users need, and that it's easy to maintain and improve as we learn more about what they want.

Open to full time or contract.

I look forward to talking with you!

Remote: Open to Remote, Hybrid, and In Person roles

Willing to relocate: Yes

Technologies: TypeScript, Node.js, Python, Vue, Nuxt, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, Docker, AWS, GitHub Actions, Jenkins

I'm a Full Stack web developer coming off of 6+ years at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where I took on roles including web app design and development, improving observability and automation in large scale data pipelines, team leadership, and developing services to configure and secure deployments to cloud infrastructure. I've worked with a large variety of technologies, and developed a robust set of skills in all layers of the web dev software stack.

Hey, I'm Andrew! It's nice to meet you. You might already know me through

* my various software projects to help people learn Finnish @ https://finbug.xyz/ ,

* my somewhat popular Ubuntu dev machine bootstrapping scripts @ https://github.com/hiAndrewQuinn/shell-bling-ubuntu , or

* my old, tiny SSG tutorial, "Minimum Viable Hugo" @ https://github.com/Siilikuin/minimum-viable-hugo .

I also wrote https://andrew-quinn.me/fzf which got over 1000 points here on Hacker News, and which many people use as their first tutorial to `fzf` to this day. My posts occasionally do quite well here.

I am seeking part time IC roles in software engineering, stuff I can do on the weekends with a 5- to 15-hour weekly commitment. Traditional compensation is of less interest to me than gaining experience and working on interesting stuff with interesting people.

I have been programming since 2009, starting with Python. The first non-trivial program I ever wrote with it was a polynomial division calculator to check my math homework, if you want an idea of the kind of person I am.Recently I've taken a liking to Go, Perl, PHP, Tiny Core Linux and other fully RAM-based solutions, good old POSIX shell, and SQLite.

If you think you have something that might interest me, send me an email! I always love hearing new ideas.

Remote: Yes

Relocation: Case-by-case

I'm a CTO, expert engineer, and data professional interested in team-building, consulting and architecting data pipelines. At Edmunds.com, I worked on a fairly successful ad-tech product and my team bootstrapped a data pipeline using Spark, Databricks, and microservices built with Java, Python, and Scala.

At ATTN:, I re-built an ETL Kubernetes stack, including data loaders and extractors that handle >10,000 API payload extractions daily. I created SOPs for managing data interoperability with Facebook Marketing, Facebook Graph, Instagram Graph, Google DFP, Salesforce, etc.

More recently, I was the CTO and co-founder of a gaming startup. We raised over $6M and I was in charge of building out a team of over a dozen remote engineers and designers, with a breadth of experience ranging from Citibank, to Goldman Sachs, to Microsoft. I moved on, but retain significant equity and a board seat.

I am also a minority owner of a coffee shop in northern Spain. That I'm a top-tier developer goes without saying. I'm interested in flexing my consulting muscle and can help with best practices, architecture, and hiring.

Would love to connect even if it's just for networking!
