SEEKING WORK - Mannheim, Germany - Remote or onsite
I'm an experienced software developer with a strong full-stack web background. I don't just build your app/site, I'll also help you put the concept together if need be, and I'm good at filling the blanks with underspecified projects.
Server-side (PHP, Ruby on Rails, Node.js), client-side (HTML5/CSS/JS), also C/C++, ObjectiveC (iOS and OS X development), Java, Ruby, Delphi and many other languages and technologies.
I offer scalability consulting for high-throughput web apps and can make MVPs very quickly.
My background is in working with advertising agencies and I have a biosciences education as well.
On a personal note, it’s been one month since I started transitioning away from my agency-based life into freelancing and it’s been an awesome experience so far. As a result of my post in the last HN freelancer thread, I had the opportunity to build many colorful things: a gambling website and exchange based on MMO money, a proof-of-concept Twilio web app in pure Node.js, a responsive Wordpres plugin that works with data from different Google services, a cool messenger app on iOS (with more platforms to follow), and a minimalistic intranet portal.
In large part due to the HN freelancer post, this past month has been a great start and I'm really glad I rediscovered how much fun it is to just make something. So: thank you!
SEEKING WORK - Remote (Paris, France - but can travel in Europe)
Full-stack web developer with sharp marketing skills.
I can help with figuring out how to make more money out of your application (B2B SaaS apps are where I have the most experience).
By understanding who your customers are and what they're looking for, I can help create a better experience for them (examples: fixing application hot spots, adding live feedback chat at the right spot, customer satisfaction surveys, analyzing and reducing churn rate...)
Do you have poor signup rates? Low activation or retention metrics? Do you think you could make more money out of your current application?
I have 8 years of experience as a software developer (Python/Django/Javascript), and I've worked both on my own products and for other startups.
I can also help with your MVP, help you come up with the right questions, and developing the right product.
FYI, Colin charges $175/hr. I have no idea how anyone has the gonads to charge that rate for Rails work. I'd love to see some discussion around the age-old sales-man technique of "It's too expensive, you probably can't afford it anyways [scoffing]"
I've charged more than $175/hr in the past, when I wasn't in a startup. There are many clients for whom above-average rates are worth it and then some. (For reference, I'm not in the Bay Area.)
$175/hr, on its face, is not an outrageous number. That's fairly typical of a skilled mid-level developer's time at a consulting firm with a good reputation and track record of success.
(Edit: Another poster pointed out that OP edited his earlier post to remove the line "I'm very good and very expensive. You probably can't afford me." [0] I didn't see that when I responded, but that's not a great way to encourage people to work with you, IMO.)
Maybe he's very good? I have no idea who Colin is, but surely it's up to him what he charges. If it's too much then nobody will hire him. What's the problem?
The problem is that he edited his post after I posted my comment in order to conceal his pompous attitude that is ruining San Francisco and other great cities.
"I'm very good and very expensive. You probably can't afford me"
Well if the tech industry can't afford you, then you might want to become a lawyer, buddy. We don't need that pompous tech-valley-swag-trash in our industry.
Welcome to the free market. If you don't want to purchase his services at 175usd per hour don't - if you do, do. Ranting about the expense of a freelancer in a freelancer thread is unlikely to make him change his rates.
The Free Music Archive is an interactive library of high-quality, legal MP3 downloads directed by WFMU, the most renowned freeform radio station in America. We're one of the largest repositories of Creative Commons music on the web, and our curated approach means it's not just free music, it's good music. We're based out of WFMU's magic factory in beautiful Jersey City, NJ.
YOU ARE:
A skilled backend engineer, with solid background in modern languages and techniques, who loves going down the rabbit hole to solve difficult problems related to performance, user experience, and long-term structural stability of a modern, high-traffic website (and who doesn't mind working with legacy code).
We're also ideally looking for significant overlap with at least a good chunk our current stack:
* mostly backend: PHP, MySQL, RDS, S3, Redis, Sphinx, Memcached, Chef; REST & API design generally
* and sometimes frontend: HTML5, JS, CSS3, Flash
Along with experience with reasonably modern source control (Git/SVN/Hg) and build practices. Note that we aren't zealots about any of the above; what we're most after is solid engineering chops -- if you're currently working with Rails or Django or Scala but don't mind digging into modern PHP for a good cause, that's fine. We need someone willing to roll up their sleeves and take long-term ownership of the project and address problems holistically.
You'll be working solo with a non-technical project manager, so your outstanding communication skills & technical leadership abilities will be greatly appreciated. Work will be very part-time (5-10 hours per week); pay would probably be around $45 per hour.
At the Free Music Archive, you'll have the chance to make valued, long-term strategic contributions to one of WFMU's most important projects. For more info, please send a note to andrea -at- freemusicarchive.org, including a CV or a resume, your GitHub profile (or other portfolio) and any other information about yourself you think would be helpful for us to know.
SEEKING WORK - Writing, Content, Marketing - Remote or Bay Area
I'm a writer and content marketer. Need an inbound specialist? Need a robust editorial calendar for all your audiences, channels, and content types? Need someone who can write a pretty sentence and back it up with analytics? Need a self-described "reasonably good-looking, like, I dunno, maybe 75th percentile" San Franciscan?
Look no further! I'm available for freelance content, marketing, and copywriting gigs. I've written for Slate, Priceonomics, Harvard Business Review, and other publications. I've also worked on some TV shows of equal audience size and lesser repute. I've run successful product launches and content campaigns for B2B and B2C startups, BigCos, etc.
I am a capable Haskell and Python developer. To get a feel of what I can do:
My side project is Reesd, a redundant storage service for developers. It is made of:
- Several Docker containers (tentatively linked through Open vSwitch),

bucket plan limits, and on-the-fly SHA1 check,
- Redundant backend store,
- Background jobs to check files SHA1 to detect early corruption,
- Payment done through Stripe (almost done),
- HAProxy,
- Email through mandrill,
- I'm working on adding PostgreSQL synchronous replication.
Looking for a remote pair, around the intermediate to senior level. Possible transition to salary down the road.
----
Essential:
* willing to embrace pair programming
* fluent in english
* excellent internet connection
* available during EST (-500)
* vim (I hate to specify an editor, but it's required due to the nature of how we remote pair. Don't have to be pro.)

Nice to have:
* pairing experience
* node
* express
* coffeescript
* rails

We've posted about this on HN a few times and have been amazed by the response. I apologize in advance if it takes a while for us to get back to you -- we interview everyone personally and are still ramping up the process.
Right now, we're particularly looking for NYC-based iOS and Android devs, as well as designers.
You tend to ignore people, you're the same as a recruitment agency. I personally think these threads should be restricted to direct hires, not your skimming-the-top fodder.
If we've ignored you, it's unintentional and I apologize.
Ken and I (Andrew) list our email addresses on our home page. Similarly, every automated email we send comes with the reply address set to one of our personal email addresses. Sometimes, people reply to those automated messages asking for things we can't really help with. I try to respond to everyone, but honestly, sometimes messages just slip through.
I've considered removing our email addresses from our web page. I'm sure that would decrease the number of messages we receive, which would increase the percentage we could reply to. But that would ultimately make us less available.
If you have any suggestions on how we can keep track of a high volume of inquires, I would love to hear them. Neither of us have run a startup at this scale before, so we're naturally trying to figure things out as we go.
I am a Ruby and Javascript developer who works mostly with Rails. I have also done smaller projects in Node.js, Backbone & Sinatra. In my work I value readable code & making systems as dead simple as possible. I believe that comes through if you take a look at my code on Github. Recent projects include writing a parser for SEC XBRL filings and a participatory visualization of endorsements in the 2013 NYC Mayoral primary (http://nyc-dems.com). I am currently working part time for a client porting his in-production Drupal web app to Rails, but I have time for another 20-30 hours of consulting per week and that's what I'm looking for. You can visit my website or Github for more info:
SEEKING FREELANCER - Remote (anywhere within UTC-8 to UTC+2)
PROJECT: Design and build a minimal, clean, static site for a software developer (namely, me!). You'll author SASS and a small number of HAML templates that serve as the foundation for the personal site, then use Middleman [0] to actually generate the site along with their blogging extension [1].
MOTIVATION: I've been giving a lot of talks lately, and I know my co-founder would appreciate it if I spent some time on making my web presence a little more legitimate -- right now, I don't have a public site that I blog about or do anything interesting with, and I'd like to change that.
I'd love to do this myself, but I know that if I try I won't be able to stop myself from going down the rabbit hole of writing my own blog engine first, and that's not going to be good for my sanity. Better to outsource this to someone smart!
SKILLS: If you're interested, you should...
-- Have a good eye for minimalism, clean lines, and a focus on content
-- Know how to write well-structured SASS (and know your way around Compass to avoid reinventing wheels), and how to write organized HAML
-- Able to write some minimal Ruby (enough to wire the Middleman glue together with YAML and some configuration blocks)
-- Understand how to write a readable, understandable git commit
-- Be able to communicate in written English at a reasonable level (if you can read HN, you're probably good!)
My e-mail address and more about me is in my profile. Get in touch with any questions, or ask them here and I'll try to get back to you.
Unity 3D C# developer for over three years, specializing in serious games, educational games, training simulations. I'm also interested in plain ol' regular games.
I've shipped products on Windows desktop and iOS. I can also build for OS X desktop and WebPlayer.
I've worked with artists and educational specialists to design interactions and generally end up doing more than simply programming.
Recently I've been working with the Oculus Rift, Vuzix AR glasses, and the Epson AR glasses. I've worked with OpenCV to roll and AR system from scratch, as well.
In a past life I was an electrical engineer, so I have experience with electronics, microcontrollers, robotics, etc. More importantly, I bring a solid real-time system perspective to the table.

We are an online LaTeX editor that very recently went open source, we are now looking for someone to join the team who will focus on the front end. The site is very functional but a long way off where it should be in terms of design and UX. We want someone to come in with a lot of ideas to help us shape how this tool will look and feel. The application is used by thousands of scientists around the world to help them work more efficiently. We have advertised this as a full time position as well but to be honest we are just looking for the right person, a good freelancer for a couple of months could be perfect as well.

I hold a (rather fresh) Ph.D. in Human-Computer Interaction where I explored the use of paper-based interfaces with augmented reality on a camera+projector system [1].
I am most experienced with C++ and OpenCV on Ubuntu, but I am not afraid (and actually enjoy) experimenting with whatever tool best fits the job. For example I toyed with cala, Python, Ruby, Java, Bash, GNU Make, CMake, Inkscape, Android, Arch, TinyCore...
For example, I am the lead developer of Chilitags [2], an OpenCV based, C++ library to detect fiducial markers for augmented reality, but I'm currently exploring their use in browsers (via a emscripten conversion to javascript, with three.js), and their port to Android.
I would love to give a hand on proof of concepts or technical designs of innovative solutions to make computers understand humans better. I like the challenge of processing "natural" data, such as images, video or 3d movements to make a reliable solution to a problem.

Freelancer - SEEKING WORK - Mumbai, India - Remote
I have just completed my ongoing projects and I am back here for more. I have been doing freelance work from reddit and HN successfully for the past year or so.
I am a software engineer working in one of the country's largest e-commerce websites.
I love learning and working on new technologies and platforms, but currently, my main experience is in Node.js and PHP. I also have some experience in working with Ruby and Sinatra. I work on linux, and I have deployed and managed web, database and application servers on CentOS and Ubuntu. I am familiar with bash scripting. I am also familiar with some basic Python and Go, but I have never really got a chance to work on it.
One of my previous jobs involved working with a large WordPress application, so I am quite adept with WordPress too. Most of my freelance work from reddit has been on the wordpress front: Customizing and working on various plugins.
I have worked with various data stores too: Mysql, mongodb, redis are the primary ones.
On the front end side, I have worked on big JavaScript projects working with various html5 APIs. I dig semantic clean HTML markup and know my way around CSS.
I have worked on AWS on an earlier job, though my current organization has its own servers in a data center. I like working on big problems, "architecting" solutions which scale out and working on them, and tackling and troubleshooting live issues. I usually try to work on git whenever possible.
I am looking for medium to long term projects, and I love working remotely. Let me know if you have anything interesting and we can chat. Email me at mail@munimkazia.com.
I'm a front-leaning, full-stack developer that has recently moved to Berlin from NY. I am American, and know just a bit of German (but am learning).
I have experience with every aspect of creating an application, from mockups and UX design, to graphic design, to the full-stack implementation, to deployment. I've successfully built and sold a past start-up of mine, and have a great deal of insight with product development. Because of this, I'm probably of most value the earlier a project is in its life cycle.
Backend stack: Ruby on Rails, with DBs/data stores such as MySQL, Postgres, Mongo, and Redis. I've also worked a bunch with Elastic Search. I can also use Node.js or PHP for the right project, but lately I've been doubling down on being a backend mono-glot.
Frontend stack: my preference is Angular.js, though I've also worked Backbone and Meteor. I am well-versed in current best practices, can build responsive mobile-friendly websites, and code pixel perfect CSS and HTML5. I have a great deal of graphic design experience and can help there as well.
Electronic hardware design, product prototyping and microcontroller programming for displays, sensors, actuators and feedback loops - interface libraries written in c, c++, python and LabVIEW. Microcontroller experience includes PIC dsPIC and Arduino. Previous work includes automation of high precision physics experiments as well as digital interactive entertainment applications.
Full-stack web developer and freelancer with 10 years of experience and a math background looking for work in the Chicago area. So far I’ve specialized on digital startups, and have worked with clients out of Chicago’s 1871. Throughout my work I’ve also been involved in helping startups build the back end of their application, design and optimize their websites and develop their business. Interested in short and long term projects.
Primary Specialties:
- MEAN (MongoDB, Express, Angular.js, Node.js)
- LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP), including Wordpress
- Server set up on: CentOS, Solaris, Ubuntu, and Debian
- Data analysis in R and SAS
All of my development is responsive. In the past, I’ve worked on e-commerce sites, social networks, mobile versions of websites, and other projects. Here are some publicly available examples:
http://loadcost.com - Node.js (JavaScript), data analysis model written in R
I work with HTML5, JavaScript and CSS on the frontend; compiled from Hogan/Handlebars, CoffeeScript and LESS/SASS with Backbone as the logic handler. For the backend I primarily use Node.js again either built with JavaScript or CoffeeScript. I have also worked with PHP and Django. Components are installed with Npm and Bower, then compiled and minified via Grunt.
I have web experience in many areas dating back to 1996. I also maintain some web applications: Gignal (http://www.gignal.com) with Parse as backend; Konfect (http://www.konfect.com) with Neo4j as database;
I have used MySQL since 1998, but primarily uses MongoDB and Redis now.
Author of Hacking the Kinect (http://amzn.to/1aljFwQ). I'm a robotics guy looking for some side work. I'll solve your robotics problems. I'm out of Cleveland area right now.
Skills: Sensor Fusion, Mathematical Filters, Localization, Planning, Kinematics, Sensors and more. Computer Science is the easiest for me, but I've worked at every level (EE, ME). C/C++, Python, Java, Android, Go, Ladder, etc.
- If you're just browsing and you run a business, drop me an
email, I'd love to figure out ways that I can add value to your
business, and I won't charge anything for this time.
- If you have an idea already I work with most technologies
and can quickly build an MVP/prototype from scratch or
get up-to-speed to contribute on a currently-running project.
* * *
I'm an experienced full-stack developer that practices Behaviour Driven Development (BDD).
I've worked in the following technologies on the server-side (Node.JS, Express.JS, Python, and Django), and on the client-side (JavaScript, Angular.JS, Backbone.JS, HTML5, CSS3, Objective-C.) However, I can probably pick up any language or tool that you're already using, so if I haven't mentioned it, just ask.
Don't hesitate to get in touch if you think I can help you in any way!
SEEKING WORK - Remote or Chicago, Boston or Austin (Data Science)
I turn raw data into answers for your business. If you have the data, great. If not, I'll instrument your business to collect that data.
---------------
PAST PROJECTS:
* Real-time high-frequency trading dashboards that make six-figure returns. This included building and deploying a distributed system for processing hundreds of data streams in dozens of ways.
* Directly advised the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs on policy for rolling out telehealth. Advice based on dozens of interviews and the analysis of millions of deployment and medical records.
* Used AI to find the few hundred relevant records among hundreds of thousands when working with research physicians at a Boston area hospital.
I thrive in startups but have also worked in government and academia. I've studied engineering and policy at MIT & Michigan. I have experience keeping sensitive data safe (incl. classified, HIPAA and Fortune 50 highly confidential).
Email me at john@jthess.com with your business questions and I'd be happy to set up a time to chat.

SEEKING WORK - Remote (UTC-6 to UTC+2 -- I'm in Europe)
I'm a full stack software developer with 15 years of experience. I've been building Ruby on Rails apps since 2007 (my github id is in the high 200s) and rich clients since 2009. I've helped launch several successful projects, one of which saw 40,000 signups on its first few hours after launch.
I'm only dogmatic about writing simple code. I'll try to push for simpler solutions if they have similar benefits to more complicated ones. It's crucial that I understand the motivation behind each feature request. Expect me to ask "why?" a lot.
I prefer lasting relationships. I'll do my best to earn your trust.
I'm not interested in building apps related to gambling, pornography, or that otherwise try to exploit the worst there is in people.
Technologies: Ruby (Rails, Sinatra), Clojure, JavaScript, CoffeeScript, ClojureScript, HTML, CSS, SASS (with or without Compass). Heroku, EngineYard, Amazon EC2.
Looking for part-time work to build out a portfolio. I have done mostly corporate work but I'm looking to get out on my own a little bit more. This means I need more experience to show but that's kind of hard when your employer owns the source :) Chicken/egg and all that.
I'm a full-stack senior developer with about 12 years of experience, mostly in Microsoft-based stuff (C# and ASP.NET MVC/Web API is my current comfort zone), but I'm also dabbling in Node and PhoneGap (and Xamarin!). I also prefer git and Angular for front-end stuff so I'm not completely brainwashed. Lots of database experience with SQL Server, but I also like Couch and MongoDB as well. Oh, and I've done SharePoint too if that helps (or hurts).
I can help you design and develop your MVP or I can just help you fill in the areas you're missing on your dev team.
My email is in my profile, or you can hit me up on Skype at cbsmith5.
I work with HTML5, JavaScript and CSS on the frontend; compiled from Hogan/Handlebars, CoffeeScript and LESS/SASS with Backbone as the logic handler.
For the backend I primarily use Node.js again either built with JavaScript or CoffeeScript. I have also worked with PHP and Django.
Components are installed with Npm and Bower, then compiled and minified via Grunt.
I have web experience in many areas dating back to 1996. I also maintain a web application called Gignal: http://www.gignal.com
i live in san francisco and most recently was the lead devops engineer at bleacher report, the 3rd largest sports website and the 36th most trafficked website in the states. i am a consulting (systems administrator | systems engineer | devops engineer | site reliability engineer) and am currently looking for a new client.
here's a brief description of the work i did at bleacher report, which is the 3rd largest sports website and the 34th most trafficked website in the us. i reduced costs by migrating from engineyard to aws. i built completely new infrastructure and increased scalability & reliability by using autoscaling. i succeeded in halving monthly infrastructure costs from ~$150k to ~$80k and refactored chef cookbooks for all stacks. managed traffic surges of key sports events that surpassed 2,000 requests per second.

I'm one of those right-brain centric big picture thinkers, so I have a knack for joining the dots between disparate systems and coming up with novel solutions. I'm a full stack developer but I have a preference for the frontend, particularly AngularJS.
Here's a quick laundry list of technologies that are fresh in my cranium:
I'm a Ruby developer based in London, looking for contract work to go alongside my part-time work at a successful YC startup and my undergraduate studies.
I love working in Rails, and have particularly outstanding experience building Twilio applications, from whole-company phone systems to small SMS services. I spoke about a cloud-based phone system I built at Twilio's European conference in 2013.
Apart from that, I have plenty of general Ruby experience, working with clients from charities to web hosting companies. I'm not afraid to work in Javascript, HTML5 and CSS3, and am happy to negotiate on price to find an arrangement that works for you.
SEEKING WORK - Remote/Freelance Python/Django/jQuery, with extensive experience building e-commerce marketplaces. I have a research background, data analysis, playing around with NLP right now. I run a django dev shop, currently taking gigs for it. Here's my portfolio:
SEEKING WORK - SF Bay Area / Remote - Long or Short Term Consultation
I am a Product Designer (Interaction Design/UI/UX). I have experience relevant to products from iOS & Android to Large Web Platforms. I typically consult on or perform the following:
- Product management - strategy, best practices, team building, implementation.
- Product design - strategy, best practices, team building, process, interaction design, ui design, iconography.
- Front end dev - I tend to build most things I spec at the very least to a minimum in which there is no chance of fidelity loss from prototype to final product. I've also setup processes for growing teams and established best practices for new hires.
WFMU seeks to engage a firm or individual on a contract basis to act as Software Architect for its Audience Engine Project. Audience Engine is an open source platform and strategy which will provide digital distribution of audio, video and audience engagement tools fully integrated with social fundraising tools, to radio stations, journalists and digital libraries. The functional requirements for Audience Engine are based on WFMU’s existing platform which can be seen live at wfmu.org. None of WFMU's existing code base will be utilized in Audience Engine. Audience Engine will be developed on top of an existing open source CMS system which will function as an Application Framework that can be integrated with any web based Front End. Whenever possible, Audience Engine will utilize existing open source components, such as CRM, Chat/Comment and Crowdfunding software by creating open source enhancements to provide specific functionality. Several new applications will be developed as open source CMS modules. For some functions, best of breed commercial components will be implemented initially until open source versions become fully functional.
The software architect shall guide and analyze the work of two or more full-time coders who will be hired by WFMU on a permanent basis. Deliverables will include a software blueprint and timeline for the Minimum Viable Product and post-MVP functions of Audience Engine, as well as user interface design. The purpose of the Audience Engine is to help media institutions become self sustaining entities, by providing them with a platform and strategy for distributing their content online, building meaningful traffic and audience around that content, engaging that audience socially around that content and then effectively raising individual donations via crowdfunding. The elements of the Audience Engine are to be built in a modular way so that existing media entities can use its various elements in conjunction with their existing sites and platforms. Interested parties should contact General Manager Ken Freedman at ken at wfmu dot org
I love programming, and I've been doing it for over 20 years. I'm looking for side work to keep me sharp while I'm taking a break from fulltime employment. My skills are varied, and I pick up new ones very easily.
- Python, Javascript, Go, maybe even C, C++, Java if the price is right-- I know a lot of languages but these are my specialties
- Any sort of web stuff, frontend or backend or in between
- SQL or NoSQL, I don't care
- Complex distributed service, or a simple script, it's all fun
Years of experience in the industry and in the open source world have taught me how to collaborate well. If you need an experienced programmer to crank out some quality code fast, then take a look at my work:
SEEKING WORK - San Francisco, CA (preferably the Peninsula) or Remote
I'm a full stack Ruby/Rails developer. I started working with Rails in 2006, and I've been writing software for over a decade. Outside of Rails, I've been working with Python at my day-job for the last six months. I am finishing a Master's with a Finance concentration now, and I have a BS in CS, in case you might be interested in someone with some specialized knowledge.
I am particularly interested in working with startups, working on data issues (I process data for a site with > 100M Uniques at my day job), or working on anything marketing-related. I've got a lot of experience running A/B tests and offsite marketing.
I actually want to work for FREE for some time (2 months or so, after that I'll charge you an arm and a leg), as long as it's Go coding. I'm an old timer (I remember the #joiito IRC channel, the RSS/Atom wars and worked my way through PHP/Ruby/Python startups). E-mail me at jonasgalvez@gmail.com and you can learn more about me.
I'm specialised in Python and JS but want to move towards Go. If you're using or want to use React.js that's a plus. If you're using or want to use Docker that's another huge plus. You see, I want to work on really interesting/innovative technology (at least from my POV), and you get an awesome full stack developer to work for free for some time. If you think that's a good deal, let's talk.
Web Developer (Rails) freelancing while I build my startup. In a past life I spent three years as a Data Analyst at PricewaterhouseCoopers. I also play around with Machine Learning in my spare time.
I'm open to contract work at a big company, but I particularly enjoy helping startups and founders get their products off the ground. I'm currently working on that problem myself, so I'd like to think I know the pain points and best practices.

I'm looking for short side projects in which I can quickly contribute value to you. I have strong background designing and implementing user interaction, but I've lead a fair share of complex backend projects. I can help you with anything from UI to setting up automated testing and deployment.
If needed I can travel for a week or two at the time.
If you don't want to appear in the front page due to you security problems, just hire me. I will help you in your security design, processes, procedures, ERP, DRP, compliance, key management, PCI-DSS...
I will walk with you and I will enable you to achieve your goals in a secure way. I don't overkill just smart security for your business.
I can work with you hourly based (do you want me to review some technical documents or code? ) or project based ( you just need some security documents, design... ).
Do you want to pentest your platform?
Just drop me a line to my e-mail or answer me here.

I've only got about five pages but I'm not so good at the design. I freely admit the budget is low £50-£125. Drop me a mail if you think you might be interested despite that. (UK only because payment by bank transfer is simpler that way.)

Have been an independent developer for the last several years, with many years of experience in many technical areas. Have contracted/consulted to multiple startups based in USA and India. Earlier worked for large well-known
US software product and Indian software services companies.
Skills: Python, C, Linux, UNIX, many open source technologies, many databases, XML-RPC, PDF programming (both PDF generation and PDF text extraction), file and data format conversion, data munging, command-line utility development, Flask, MongoDB, Bottle, various others.
Worked on Ruby, Rails and Java earlier. Was server lead / senior engineer for two commercial Rails-based dot-com products earlier, by US companies. One of them was TaskBin - http://taskbin.com .
Databases worked on: Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, Oracle, Sybase, Informix, SQLite, MS SQL Server. Used databases in most of the projects I've worked on in my career.
Worked on a best-selling retail banking product (earlier, in C with proprietary DB and UI libs). Was team leader for a database middleware product (in C) that was widely used in client projects by a top software services company.
Did a lot of UNIX support and successful troubleshooting for years (some years earlier), still have some of those skills, which are often useful in development too. Had many times recovered clients' data from corrupted file systems or crashed machines (with no backups :), using various tricks of the trade learnt on the job, and solved various
other software problems, often involving various interacting software components (from OS level through language compilers to application programs and databases). Wrote lots of utilities in C and UNIX shell tools (sed, awk, grep and friends) to automate various tasks (for both users and developers), convert data between various formats from one
platform to another, etc.

Update 1: Apart from freelance consulting / contracting work, I also conduct Python training courses, both online and offline, for both corporate and individual clients. Recently completed one such online Python training for a corporate client.
Update 2: I'm also looking to build up a contact base of a small number of Python/Linux/database freelancers, for possible joint work in cases where the projects are too big for me to handle on my own; I get inquiries for such projects now and then. Anyone interested, please feel free to contact me via my contact page mentioned above - thanks!
Freelance developer based in Brighton in the UK (50 minutes from London). I am flexible, resourceful and reliable and I can help you turn your ideas into reality. I can build mobile and web apps as well as fun things involving custom hardware. I can build prototypes or full apps on my own but also happy to work as part of a team (and I have a bunch of great
people I work with if you need help putting together one).
I work a lot with Python (often with Django) and JavaScript (Node.JS and browser) to build rich client browser based and mobile apps. I also do hardware based projects, I have experience with coding in Assembly and C on various micro controllers and Arduino development.
A very non-exhaustive list of technologies I have built real things with (and enjoyed): Python, JavaScript, Django, Node.JS, Backbone.JS, AngularJS, OpenCV.
Some recent projects:
- The software and technical design for a "magic mirror" that was used at London Fashion Week. Behind the scenes it was built with 15 network Raspberry Pis with camera modules. http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/tag/london-fashion-week
- An iPad app for a medical company for quick lookup of drug interactions. This was built with HTML5 and made use of Angular.JS.
- A web app for a training company to provide complete courses online combing video, slides and quiz's.
- Lead developer on a team building a collaboration application featuring a RESTful API and browser and mobile clients. See
- Head pose estimation from a video feed for a interactive store-window display (it superimposed masks over the faces of customers as they looked through the window)
I can show you more of any of these if you're interested.
