I offer high yield with low drama. 15+ years experience across the modern web stack. Looking for contract work.
I’m a Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience building scalable systems across backend, frontend, and cloud environments. I’ve worked on everything from fintech platforms (trading, reconciliations, internal tools) to AI-powered testing systems and developer platforms.
Recently, I’ve been:
- Building and scaling microservices (Scala, Java, Node.js, Python) in AWS/GCP
- Improving CI/CD pipelines and test reliability (Playwright, automation)
- Developing internal financial tools and crypto trading integrations
Software engineer with 6+ years of startup experience building AI-powered products — production systems with real infrastructure, not API wrappers.
Most recently, I built an AI-powered media intelligence platform(https://youtu.be/manjyiUsfU8) for filmmakers from zero to production in 4 months as the sole engineer — featuring agentic RAG across video, audio, image, and PDF archives, coordinating 5 AI APIs with automatic failure recovery, and processing 8.5 hours of video in under 35 minutes.
I also built an automated CI/CD pipeline with macOS code signing & notarization (https://youtu.be/-DSCZX3uG_c).

My last performance win was moving an endpoint from 400ms to 13ms with Redis and proper indexing. There's always something new to learn.
I'm Aaron, 21, and I've lived around computers since day one. At 17 I was already shipping production code. Since then I've worked directly with CTOs, built systems across Venezuela, Spain, and the US, and held my own alongside engineers with double my experience. Tangible outcomes matter more to me than years on a CV
Right now I'm building MotoGearPick, a PCPartPicker-style gear comparison platform with a dual-model AI pipeline (Gemini + Claude) processing thousands of products at $0.005/item, running on AWS Startups credits. Before that: PCI compliance and deep link systems at a Portuguese fintech, high-concurrency microservices for a betting platform
I bring high energy, full accountability, and the kind of ownership most people don't show up with until they're 30.

I work on infrastructure and backend systems, with experience running production workloads.
At Syngenta, I helped scale AWS infrastructure across 100+ accounts, improving reliability and driving ~$500K in annual cost savings. At State Street, I built an internal AI system (RAG-based) and automation tooling that reduced manual setup effort by ~60% and improved developer workflows.
I enjoy owning systems end-to-end, from design to production, especially where reliability, performance, and real-world usage matter. Looking for roles in infrastructure, platform, or AI systems where I can ship and iterate quickly.
I build AI agent infrastructure, most recently Tracea (tracea.dev), an open-source observability platform for AI agent teams that patches the HTTP transport layer to trace LLM calls without framework changes. Also built ObservAgent (300+ users, open source) and published research on GRPO fine-tuning for medical reasoning (+11% accuracy over SFT baseline).
Looking for full-stack or AI/ML engineering roles at early-stage startups or growth-stage companies where I can work on production AI systems with high ownership and real impact. Strong preference for roles involving LLM integration, agent infrastructure, or AI observability.

I help make performant systems easy to use, both the first time and the 1000th.
Last year I built Linguabase, a semantic graph of 400K terms and 63M relationships from 130M LLM inferences. I work across the stack, from systems architecture to highly usable design, and I've led cross-functional teams of 9 to 40. Currently an AI Engineer at the U.S. Treasury. Previously ran a word-game studio funded by a $295K NSF SBIR. Earlier work includes SpicyNodes (40M users), ProstateCalculator (neural-net health AI, 1.5M patients), and time.gov. I judge games for IGF, MAGFest, CODiE, and GEE.
I'm good at communicating clearly: my interactive article on multi-word expressions in English trended on Hacker News in February.
Looking for an applied AI role at a smaller company where I can help you strategize, build, and deploy. I'd shine on developer tools, learning platforms, knowledge products, creative AI, thinky games, or anything that needs to be more accessible to users.
Hi, I'm Alex Stout, I'm a full-stack software engineer who's combined their mastery of the fundamentals with modern AI development techniques, e.g. RAG pipelines, agentic systems, MCP, tools, and skills for IDE agents like Claude Code. Last year I co-created Unilogs, a scalable log observability platform, and earlier this year I helped launch Mastra version 1.0 (an agentic AI framework). Most recently I've been running an experiment on an agentic debate system, which you can read more about in this short write-up: https://medium.com/@alex.stout55555/agentic-debate-an-archit...

Email: stephan /dot/ fassmann /at/ gmail /dot/ com
There are 2 kinds of documentation: how to make something and how to use something. They are very different.
When you are making something you need to document what it is supposed to do (because the code tells us what it does and bugs are when it does something incorrect). You also need to document why you decided to do it that way so when you go back in 6 months you can pick up more easily.
When you are making user docs you need to think like a user, mainly assuming they never used it before, and they just want to get that task done so they can do all the other tasks they have to do.
Documentation is customer facing because when docs work, customers learn to trust you.
I create documentation that builds trust and help customers use the product successfully. I reduced tech support calls by 60% and increased support website lists by 40%.

I'm Yassine, a software engineering student at INSAT, Tunisia with hands-on experience building systems that need to be correct, fast, and trustworthy, qualities that matter a great deal in expense automation and compliance.
My background spans AI engineering, full-stack development, and systems design. I’ve shipped production-grade tools under real constraints, including a data science competition platform that handled sustained load for a hackathon we hosted at IEEE INSAT, an AI CLI assistant with 230+ GitHub stars and +800 Docker pulls, and an IoT anomaly detection engine for live solar sensor data for a winning hackathon project. Most recently, I’ve been building a multi-agent clinical reasoning platform at my part-time at a biotech startup alongside my studies.
I'm looking for remote internships or part-time positions in backend or AI.

I am a seasoned C++ developer with 23 years of experience in the industry. I have experience in Desktop, Embedded and Mobile development. I also did some back-end work and even some reverse engineering, though that was a while ago. I also have some ML experience (PyTorch) - also a while ago, but not that much. Most recently I've doing 3D graphics (simulation and later maps). My Linear Algebra is quite decent - I use it regularly.
My preferred next career move is independent contracting. 6-12 months contracts ideally. I will also consider permanent fully remote positions, but only quite senior ones - Staff Engineer / Architect level.
I've been fully remote since 2018 and I intend to keep it that way.
I build systems that replace the spreadsheet-and-Slack-message chaos that quietly costs companies 20+ hours a week.
At a US marketing agency, I own the entire automation layer: lead qualification bots, AI-driven customer support pipelines, and internal reporting that used to need 3 people.
A few things I've shipped:
- An AI support agent that finds out the reason for the overdue tickets.
- Scraping pipeline that tracks 50k+ real estate listings daily without getting blocked.
I don't just write code. I sit with the ops problem first, then build the smallest system that solves it permanently.
Hello, I'm Rita. I am an independent software engineer with over 4 years of full-stack development experience. Recently, I created an app "Pet Feeder Tracker" using PostgreSQL, Ruby On Rails 8, StimulusJS, Tailwind CSS, OmniAuth(User Authentication), functional test, Gemini CLI to transformed messey datasheet to organized and visualization chart trend.
Looking for: Ruby on Rails Developer/ Fullstack Engineer/ Backend Engineer.
18 Years Web, SaaS, Full-Stack, Backend, and SRE/DevOps/Platform Engineering.
Looking for freelance clients/projects and part-time opportunities.
Would love to work with universities, research institutes, public good non-profits, and so forth but open to working with all kinds of wonderful people!
Work-life balance is my goal over getting rich; if you support my lifestyle then I am happy to reciprocate with my time & skills.
At home, you can find me homesteading and exploring merging tech knowledge with the natural, real world. Currently refreshing my old electronics skills to build sensors and automation systems for various projects around the house (e.g. growing food, rain water collection, etc..)
I have recently traveled to Boston a few times (its ~3 hours by train) and its amazing! Would love to make some connections down there as well. I can't come down every day but am open-minded to dropping in every once in a while.
I also really want to check out MIT (swap meet & library!), FSF, and all of this super cool culture in Boston that was too far away when I used to live in Ohio.

I'm a final-year Information Systems Engineering student at Sakarya
University (graduating July 2026). For the past year I've been building
TerapistBul — a therapist-matching platform for the Turkish healthcare
market. Shipped end-to-end: Next.js frontend, Laravel API, database
modeling, deployment. Registered as a sole proprietor (NACE 621000) to
operate it legally and to invoice internationally without paperwork friction.
Looking for: Junior Full-Stack or Frontend role at a remote-first company.
Want to ship from day one and learn from engineers operating at scale.
Comfortable owning problems end-to-end.
Open to contract or full-time. No US visa needed (remote work from Türkiye).
I'm an independent software architect. Companies bring me in for the painful infra and backend projects their team can't get to without derailing core work, usually migrations, reliability fixes, and cost takeouts.
Recent: AWS to GCP migration saving $5K/month with zero downtime. Cassandra to DynamoDB migration, no downtime. Build times 30min to 3min, success rate 70% to 97%. Once replaced a planned 2-month rewrite with a 6-line diff.
Background: 6 years at Facebook (reliability/performance/security at billion-user scale), then architect at two growth-stage startups. Independent since 2025.
Best fit: growth-stage company with a defined infra-shaped problem and budget to have someone senior own it end-to-end. Probably not the right call for ongoing IC work or pure feature delivery. I work fixed-price when scope is clear, hourly when it isn't.
Technologies: Django, FastAPI, Python, React, AI (OpenAI, Anthropic, ChatGPT), Roku BrightScript, Linux, AWS, Google Cloud, DigitalOcean, Ant Media Server (HLS/RTMP streaming, 24/7 channels), video pipelines, automation
Who I am:
Fractional CTO with 25+ years of experience building and scaling products across multiple generations of the web. I’m often brought in to turn ideas into working systems quickly, or to stabilize and evolve existing platforms.
I’ve led teams, hired engineers, defined architecture, and stayed hands-on in the code. My work spans AI-driven platforms, streaming media systems, and full-stack web applications. I’m comfortable operating at both the executive strategy level and deep in implementation.
Known for being a “Swiss army knife” technologist who can bridge product, engineering, and execution without overengineering.
What I am looking for:
Part-time Fractional CTO or Head/Director of Technology roles.
Best fit: startups or growing companies that need someone to own technical direction, ship quickly, and make practical decisions without unnecessary complexity.
Strong interest in AI-powered products, media/streaming, and content platforms, but open to any project where execution speed and clarity matter.
I'm a full-stack engineer with 11+ years of professional software development experience in a diverse range of environments. Seeking a full-time position working as an individual contributor on a small to medium sized team. Opportunities to mentor or lead also desired.
Just about done finishing up a CS master's degree, and looking for opportunities starting in the late summer or fall. My background is in programming language theory (particularly logic/relational programming), so would be very happy to work with functional languages, compilers, automated reasoning, and/or formal verification. I also have a background in music (I'm a published composer!) so particularly interested in audio/music-related stuff as well. Open both to software enginering roles and research positions (anyone looking for new PhD/doctoral students?) I've also done full-stack work across databases/cloud infrastructure/web APIs/frontends, and independently released a commercial music production plugin (Pivotuner, more info on my website).
Remote: Only. Have done it for most of my career, have home office and not kitchen table, can work async, used to time zone differences etc etc.
Willing to relocate: Not on the first date.

Résumé/CV: Linkedin link in profile, or same user as here.
Email: Description in profile.
General use developer/architect/lead for those keywords above or other keywords.
Used to working independently, architecturizing and/or coordinating tiny teams.
Have carried a lot of customer's bits from wherever they were generated to wherever they were needed. Either just talking to sensors or doing the whole chain, daemons and GUIs if the project required them.
Have done software archaeology on mature code bases and fixed/improved them. As a matter of fact that's what I'm doing now, bringing an old native windows application to the 21st century.
Not necessarily looking for full time employment, if someone just wants to get to know people via part time / fixed duration projects, that would be just fine(tm). Especially if they're a smaller organization, i might do better in one of those.
About: I am a UX Engineer, who loves solving complex problems, with over 15 years of experience in AI, Fin-Tech, Journalism, TV, and Media, Health, Science, and a lot more.

I'm a generalist software engineer with most of my experience (14YOE professional) in backend, platform, infra, and DevOps stuff. I'm currently employed and love where I am and what I do, but I intend to relocate to the EU in 2028 and my job (federal contracting) is incompatible with that goal.
I'm very interested in deep learning, formal verification, and compliance automation, but also artificial life, complexity science, robotics, cybernetics (as in Beer), computational social sciences, network science, transit, city planning, etc.
I use Claude Code happily at work, as directed, and seen significant (though not unqualified) productivity gains. I've used it to varying degrees on different personal projects. I'm avoiding it now on personal projects (to retain and build skill). I can work anywhere along that spectrum.
I enjoy learning about what other people are working on, so even if you're not hiring or not interested in hiring _me_, I'd love to connect. I've had some genuinely transformative conversations with people I've met on HN, and I'd love to have more.
I am a software engineer with 13 years of experience with javascript, and 3 years at a full stack developer with python. I have experience with SaaS, deploying and maintaining ML models in production, Biotech R&D, and LLM workflows. My latest project is a LLM career coach that guides you through achieving your goals and keeps you focused, based on enneagram and emotional intelligence scores.
Senior software engineer and independent consultant (15+ yrs), currently based in Valencia, Spain (CET). I do primarily backend work in Python (Django/FastAPI/Flask) and PHP (Laravel/Drupal), API development and consumption, data pipeline work, and AI integration features (RAG, LangChain/LangGraph, vector DBs).
Strong infra/ops chops (Docker, CI/CD, Kubernetes, Linux), comfortable owning projects end-to-end and mentoring.
Remote-first, with a reliable 4-hour daily overlap with US business hours; invoicing/tax admin handled on my side. Work authorization in US (SS/EIN) and Spain (NIE). Note: Spanish availability is limited due to DNV limitations of no more than 20% revenue sourced from Spanish companies.

Technologies: Full stack web dev for 15+ years in many forms. In recent years I've been focused on game development projects using Babylon/WebGL and working with C++ & Go server-side (MMO servers). Many years of project and product management as well.
I have some cool projects! See my personal site for email and some of those projects:
Coolest released one is probably https://www.idlequest.net/, which is an idle-game web-based version of classic EverQuest, complete with its original 3D graphics in-browser and a real-time MMO server! Had up to 70 players online at the same time a month or two ago.
About to release my biggest project, which is a full reverse engineering and re-implementation of the 2007 MMORPG "Vanguard".
Looking largely for product engineering positions, or project/product management style work. Have done both and enjoy both a lot. Open to contracting or full-time.
I have 10+ years of experience as an engineer and 2+ years as CTO. Over the past 2 years I've been shipping agents/LLM-based flows to production using Typescript, React, Bun/Node, Django and Python.
I thrive in small and highly autonomous teams with a strong focus on product and go-to-market.
Hi, I'm Hajo. 20+ years shipping production systems, 12+ as CTO. I'm a fractional CTO and I offer AI R&D, performance optimization, and due diligence as freelance consulting services. You might know me from:
ImageRights: sole architect, 10+ years in prod. Web crawling stack (5000+ concurrent tasks via Ansible), distributed C++ content-based image retrieval database scaling to billions of web images, all internal AI filters, plus workflow automation. Still running today.
Spatial Audio Designer: sole developer. 500+ channels real-time on 2013 hardware. NEON / AVX-vectorized DSP, plugins for VST / RTAS / AU / AAX, kernel drivers for virtual sound cards on Mac and Windows, ARM port for embedded and VR. Still in use by famous Hollywood studios.
And yesterday, I figured out how to make MSFS2024 run with multi-camera and instrument pop-outs in Proton 11. Understanding the root cause required tracing the full stack from inside the game, through vkd3d, Proton, the host Linux OS, down to the GPU driver.
Ideally, I'm looking for 5-10 days per month part-time projects. Plus I'd love to work on applied AI / robotics.
Hi! I'm a backend engineer (~8 YOE) with strong backend & DevOps experience and decent frontend skills. Looking for a backend or backend-leaning full-stack role.
I worked at Automattic (US), the company behind WordPress; fully remote, async teams across the globe.
I've worked with time-sensitive, high-throughput, distributed services (millions of ops daily) and owned features and small- to mid-sized projects end-to-end from tech design to deployment. I do my best working autonomously, and I like to think of myself as a generalist.
I've been part of teams focused on speed and rapid iteration, and I've also worked on high-quality systems where long-term maintainability and reliability matter the most. I'm a pretty flexible and adaptable person.

Senior full-stack Django/Python engineer for founders and lean teams that need platform, product, architecture, and ops ownership. Django has been my daily driver since 2018 — I've only worked with Django-native startups. I know the framework deeply: ORM, migrations, admin, middleware, signals, async, deployment. I build production web platforms, APIs, integrations, internal tools, document/data automation, and AI-enabled workflows. Recent R&D: generative image/video pipelines, Lora training, multi-model orchestration, prompt architecture, and repeatable creative AI tooling—but the broader pattern is platform engineering.
Open to fractional or project-based work, especially 2-6 week focused cycles with startup founders, cofounders, agencies, or product teams.
What I do: I build agentic systems and full-stack infrastructure — things that ship, observe themselves, and run autonomously.
Recent work:
- Founding contributor at NimbleBrain: designed the agentic loop and workflow engine that guides AI agents through building and publishing MCP server integrations end-to-end
- Co-created Vispyr: self-hosted observability platform on AWS with automated infra provisioning, OTel instrumentation, and a full Grafana telemetry stack
- Mozilla Firefox contributor: accessibility and DevTools CSS refactors
Profile: I'm a Canadian citizen Full-Stack SWE co-creator of Vispyr, an end-to-end, self-hosted, observability tool with automated infrastructure deployment, contributor to Mozilla Firefox, and a founding contributor to NimbleBrain.
I consistently earn the trust of my teams and organizations through a combination of technical depth, operational judgment, and a genuine drive to improve the systems I work in - both technical and departmental. I tend to ramp up quickly and take on expanded responsibility early. See my cover letter (linked above) for more details.
Seeking roles in the realm of DevOps and Site Reliability|SRE.
About me:
Former Amazon Prime Air and Twitch engineer focused on distributed systems, reliability, and large-scale data pipelines.
Recently building EZThrottle — a system designed to coordinate API traffic, retries, and fairness across multi-tenant and agent-driven workloads. Think: preventing retry storms, smoothing partial outages, and making backend systems more predictable under chaotic load.
I care a lot about:
- Reliability under real-world failure conditions (partial outages > total outages)
- Multi-tenant fairness and traffic shaping
- Systems that reduce operational burden, not add to it
Looking for roles or contracts where I can work on:
- Infrastructure / backend systems
- Distributed systems / reliability engineering
- High-scale APIs or data pipelines

Hi, I'm Joseph. I have a special love for the cloud and infrastructure as code. I have 20 years experience doing development, systems engineering, DevOps, and data engineering. I've worked with companies to greatly improve uptime and profits and get their processes under control. I've worked in heavily regulated environments and helped companies prepare for major audits and become certified in frameworks like HITRUST and FedRamp.
I've worked as a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) for over 12 years across startups, midsize, and FAANG companies with a focus on automating tests and processes which are often repetitively mundane or large time sinks. This ranges from writing said automated tests for web and mobile devices to the frameworks that run them. I also have experience in managing teams of people that take care of these tasks.
I enjoy the time saving nature of automation and have a genuine interest in maintaining a high degree of product quality. While my work has been SDET related up until now, I am open to developer roles as well since there is a high degree of overlap.

I am a software engineer with 9 years of professional experience, though I have been programming since I was a kid. I am a huge proponent of Open Source (see my Github[1]). I am looking to join a smaller company, either as a FTE or on a contracting basis. [1]: https://github.com/giodamelio
I founded a real estate development+proptech company, exited an 8-figure gdv residential project and recently sold a decision-support saas for new-development underwriting.
Before that, I did ML research (session-based recsys, re-reranking, model selection optimization), product management at an early-stage vc, and built other end-to-end full-stack AI products that helped real estate brokerages and developers automate more than 150 hours per month in manual research and analysis workflows, increasing their project output by more then 50%.
LLM introspection tooling and observability, mainly around token-level behavior during inference; Also experimented with inference-time interventions (no retraining) e.g. improved DeBERTa on HANS via targeted layer/head adjustments.
I just put up a small demo of part of the tooling (HF Space):
-per-head projections into token space (logit lens-style)
-token rank changes across layers for target-tokens ("rank displacement")
-top-k next-token branches with internal state views
-mute a head at a given L x H coordinate
-inject tokens or rewind context
There's a minimal example in the UI showing how token candidates stabilize (or don’t) across layers
Background:
~15 years in data science/ analytics (higher ed), mostly translating technical work into decisions & policy for leadership.
More recently focused on LLM internals + tooling (Python/Rust, local model stacks, etc.) and agentic analytical tools for operational use.
Background in philosophy / applied linguistics & NLP; previously designed and taught a course on propaganda (how language shapes reactions to media etc.).
Looking for:
roles around LLM tooling, evals, interpretability, or applied AI where understanding model behavior is useful.
Tech: Python, Rust, SQL, embeddings, local LLM infra

Remote: Yes (have worked exclusively remotely for past 14 years)
Willing to relocate: No
I've been doing backend work for the past 14 years, with Python, Django, and Django REST Framework. I'm intimately familiar with schema and data migrations, including migrations between Django projects. I've done a lot of full-stack work as well, with HTML, CSS, JavaScript/jQuery, and React.js. I've worked extensively with startups and I've worked with Twitter. I have a lot of experience working with distributed teams and am open to occasional travel. Available full (~32hrs) or part time. Interested in Python work or full-stack with Python.
Technologies: Embedded systems, automotive, machine learning, signal processing, data science, real time computing, safety processes (MISRA, ISO26262, etc), MATLAB, FPGA.
Background: Masters in control theory and signal processing, working in the auto industry for the last 7 years, first on low level powertrain software then the last year or so on LIDAR/computer vision for autonomous vehicles. I've done the most work in C, but I'm now contributing to safety development work with the Rust consortium and Ferrous Systems through my current employer. Recently had to read the Linux kernel source and use the BCC tool suite to find a subtle issue in the network stack causing high latency on sensor data for AV, also coincidentally fixed most of the network timing infrastructure.
Currently doing software defined vehicle software architecture with a focus on fail-safe and fail-operational, loosely coupled, distributed systems. This includes some standards contributions and work with high level suppliers like Nvidia and Renesas for next-generation software/hardware system co-development.
Primary skills include hard real time embedded systems, safety critical applications, firmware development, system integration and complex hardware/software interaction debugging, along with detailed data analysis problems.
Side interests include machining, 3D printing, embedded system development, coffee roasting and furniture making.

Email: brendanvinson@icloud.com
20 years engineering total, last 5 dedicated to platform/cloud at a regulated bank, leading the replatform of a contractor-built AWS multi-account into FFIEC/GLBA-compliant standards-based architecture. Stood up federated HashiCorp orchestration (Vault Enterprise, Nomad, Consul), GitLab Enterprise from inception, LGTM/OpenTelemetry observability instrumenting Java/Spring Boot services, and developer tooling distributed via a private Homebrew tap.
Most interested in observability platforms, data infrastructure, and AI engineering broadly — anywhere AI is sharpening human judgment rather than displacing it. Currently building out infrastructure tooling in Go using agentic workflows (Claude Code).
Works across the stack — each layer has its own problems worth solving. Publishes on engineering decision frameworks and AI-augmented development workflows.
Pursuing CKA. Not interested in defense, crypto, or gambling.
5+ years building robotics and applied AI/ML systems that ship to the real world. Deployed software to a fleet of 30 autonomous golf-ball picking robots, led end-to-end development of an ABB computer vision vision-guided industrial saffron harvester (UNet, NeRFs, Q-Learning), built a hyperspectral drone system for mine detection (UNet, SimCLR), and designed RL-based flight-route planning (PPO, NAF, DQN). Extensive experience connecting perception, sensors, simulation, and robot control all the way through to production. Also built an ATS with an integrated neural reranker capable of processing tens of thousands of candidates (RAG, PyTorch).
English, Swedish. CogSci BSc.
Open to contract/freelance or full-time remote work, including US hours.
15 years in tech doing a job that has a lot of names depending on the company — platform engineer, support engineer, internal developer advocate — but always the same core function: making sure the humans using internal infrastructure aren't left to figure it out alone. At Atlassian I was embedded with the security platform team, sitting in sprint planning, tracking support patterns, and making sure user pain shaped the roadmap rather than being tossed in the backlog pile.
If your platform team is building great things that nobody can figure out how to use or troubleshoot, that's the problem I'm good at solving.
In The Loop (intheloop.engineering) | Senior Consulting Engineers | Remote (US time zones)

Open source maintainer/top contributor of AnkiDroid: Android client for Anki. 10M+ downloads.
~10 YOE, with 6 YOE open source (4,000+ commits). Ready for stability after years of contracting and maintainership.
I lead a global volunteer team and take full product ownership: setting direction over multi-year horizons, planning and implementing architectural migrations, and keeping a project moving via community engagement, triage, fixes, reviews and mentorship.
Highlights:
- AnkiDroid now releases in tandem with upstream, rather than lagging behind by years
- Migrated a 15-year-old codebase from Java 7 to Kotlin, maintaining git blame
- Migrated to a common Rust-based backend. Android contributors are fully isolated from this complexity
- Improved app rating from 4.5 to ~4.8 stars, dramatically reduced crash rate
- Mentored hundreds of contributors and co-launched AnkiDroid's Google Summer of Code programme
AnkiDroid continues as a hobby; my day job is fully separate.
Looking for: full-time or contract. IC or EM, I'm nontraditional so I'm open to a conversation about which fits. Drawn to work that makes people's lives better, in any stack.

I'm a Senior DevOps engineer, Cloud Architect and Infrastructure Engineer.
I provide contract or ad-hoc services and support to startups, growth companies and enterprises. I'm often called to set up greenfield DevOps installations, architect and build cloud infrastructures, design platform architectures, build cloud-based, SaaS and mobile products and assist with emergency or short-staffed situations.
I also provide fixed-price services which are often ideal for startups: Azure / AWS cloud builds; DevOps greenfield setup; security / DevOps reviews; alerting / monitoring builds; training; support; emergency services.
Some examples of my work:
* Greenfield Azure DevOps and Azure Cloud implementation for a FinTech company
* Ethereum L1 packer-based automation; Solana smart contracts
* Global multi-cloud PaaS cloud & DevOps design for a major data platform
* Architecture & development for custom clouds
* Solr / Lucene search solutions
* AWS / Azure startup cloud builds
* NodeJS / React mobile app development
Senior software engineer, 20+ years on production systems. Working on neural nets since 1996 (neuroevolution, genetic programming) — multiple AI cycles' worth of perspective on what survives the hype.
Currently building a regulatory forecasting system for Polish law: ingesting statutes back to 1944, building a graph of legislation and amendments, reasoning about where the regulatory surface is moving. The hard problems are PDF → structured graph at scale and reasoning under uncertainty, not the model wrapper.
I also write about where AI coding agents actually work and where they quietly fail.
Best fit when the work is engineering-shaped — application/data rather than infra/SRE/Kubernetes-heavy — and the schedule overlaps EU hours.
Comfortable as autonomous IC or small-team tech lead. Domains where messy real-world data meets non-trivial reasoning are where I'm sharpest — regulatory, legal, scientific, financial.

As a career I do CRM implementations, basic web/app development, and consulting, mostly for small companies.
Most of my background in software is from doing game development in C++ back in the day as a hobby (as you may be able to tell from the heavily WIP website), but I'm rusty, as I switched to Godot many years ago.
I'm looking for a new job that won't compromise on my current work-life balance and pays enough to justify living in the city (>120 a year).
I probably wouldn't pass a technical interview, but I'm open to (and enjoy) learning new stuff. The industry you're in doesn't matter, but you will get bonus points if you're working on a meaningful problem like climate.
15 years backend. Ex-Automattic on Jetpack Backup, ex-Media Cloud (Harvard/MIT, ICWSM 2021 co-author). PGConf SV 2018 and APAC 2019 talks on Postgres at scale. Currently running https://aero.zip + https://www.lobsterpack.com in parallel and vibecoding like crazy.
Grug-brain engineer (https://grugbrain.dev) and recovering purist. I'd rather push the needle in the wrong direction fast and correct course than design the perfect thing for six months. AI embracer - I treat it as an exoskeleton, not a replacement.
Not a big fan of: calculator apps on Kubernetes, six-round interview pipelines, unpaid take-homes longer than 2 hours.
Senior software engineer with 5+ years of experience building large-scale
distributed systems, CDN/edge infrastructure, and developer-facing platforms.
Currently at Disney working on the DTC media platform powering ESPN, Disney+,

verification), optimizing multi-CDN traffic mix, and integrating with Akamai,
Fastly, and CloudFront for live events. Previously a founding engineer at a
YC-backed messaging startup (Texts) and ran my own infrastructure-heavy SaaS
for several years. Comfortable across the stack but happiest deep in
backend/infra work - distributed systems, networking, performance, and tooling
that makes other engineers faster. Currently pursuing an M.S. in CS at

After building and selling a couple of companies, now I'm a quasi-retired "technologist" I guess. I like to build. The benefit is that I'm compensation-flexible and offer a straightforward style. Lately, I've been splitting my time building native apps and working on LLMs, but I'm very also comfortable in the middle of the stack and at the systems level. Somehow I wind up doing a lot of custom USB and BT work.
No drama. I don't want to run your company or lord over a tribe. The best fit is a situation where you need something done, you set the direction and constraints, then I bring you options to get it done and deliver it.

Principal, Agentic Engineering Systems · "I ship with agents."
PhD Mathematics · 15+ years production AI/ML.
I build self-improving engineering systems that ship PRs against real enterprise codebases, including personal agents that learn each engineer's context and expertise, and the harness that keeps them in bounds.
Most recently I led an AI tooling team at a Big 4 professional services firm, building production LLM tooling on open-source agent/RAG components. Before that I designed autonomous engineering systems for real enterprise software workflows. They used the same channels any engineer does: repos, PRs, CI, and Slack.
That work, including unsupervised runs on real production code, made the next bottleneck obvious: capability isn't the hard limit anymore. Authority, trust, and blast radius are.
I've hardened the design into an Agent Harness architecture: authority boundaries, blast-radius scoring, multi-agent consensus, and human approval routing. Other teams reached out to learn the approach.
Background: led MLOps adoption across 30+ business units; drove $48M in annual data-cost reduction; built production RAG and Slackbot systems for public sector and Fortune-scale telecom. ML roots in signal processing, frame theory, NLP, time-series, and applied math. US patent pending.
Looking for work building governed engineering-agent fleets: personal agents that learn each engineer's context and expertise, shared team agents that coordinate across repos and workflows, and the control plane that keeps it safe enough to run in prod. Also a good fit for agentic SDLC platforms, internal AI infrastructure, or principal-architect work. Prefer C2C/1099, open to full-time or fractional.
Senior backend and infrastructure engineer, available for part-time contract work (8–16 hours/week) alongside an existing engagement.
I currently own the full backend and infrastructure layer for a EU company: Python APIs (Flask/FastAPI), PostgreSQL and Redis, AWS infrastructure managed with Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, and Kubernetes workloads. I've performed cloud migrations between AWS, Azure, and DigitalOcean, and taken ownership of legacy systems that nobody else wanted to touch. Happy to be the person your team pings when something is broken and nobody knows why.
Looking for 1–2 additional clients who need a reliable, senior-level contractor to own a slice of their backend or infrastructure. I invoice through a registered EU company in EUR or USD.

Open to contract work or potentially full-time roles for the right fit.
Machine learning engineer with 8 years of startup experience building production systems for audio, robotic perception, and edge deployment. Specialties in deep learning for audio/DSP, distributed training infrastructure, and shipping models to embedded hardware.
Currently exploring LLM and agent tooling through side projects, and open to roles that combine that with my core background.
I've mostly been a first or founding engineer, owning systems that have to scale early. I focus on high-throughput pipelines, messaging systems, media transcoding, and recommendations—areas where issues show up under load, retries, and edge cases.
I also build real-time dashboards to observe and control these systems, using local-first approaches and browser-based technologies for media processing and realtime communication.
- Messaging systems delivering millions of emails and push notifications in minutes (retries, deliverability, observability)
- Browser-based video editing and encoding platform using FFmpeg, Supabase, and AWS
- Real-time pipelines and recommendation systems for tens of millions of users
- Scaled event ingestion ~100x for analytics and experimentation
I do my best work in small, product-focused teams, owning systems end-to-end, staying close to production, and communicating early around risks and tradeoffs.
- Founding or early engineering roles (full-time, part-time, or contract)
- Backend or infrastructure-heavy work
- Products with real users or a clear path to them

I'm mostly looking for side work, but may be open to full-time if it seems like an exceptional fit.
If there's anything your current team has been meaning to tackle, but hasn't had the time, feel free to reach out. I can work very autonomously with almost no onboarding.
I build and ship production GenAI systems in pharma (R&D + TechOps), leading a team of 4. My work spans data pipelines, backend systems, and cloud infrastructure to deliver production-ready AI applications.
Recent work:
Report generation framework (unstructured + structured data → compliant reports)
Processes PDFs, documents, and structured datasets to generate consistent, audit-ready reports
GxP-compliant intelligent QMS collaborator (~40% faster QA workflows)
Most of my work is in regulated environments, so I focus on traceability, observability, and building reliable AI systems.

Resume: https://haltman.neocities.org/resume.pdf
Email: harry.j.altman@gmail.com
Hi, I'm Harry Altman! I was the maintainer of Truffle Debugger (https://github.com/ConsenSys-archive/truffle/tree/develop/pa...), a Solidity smart contract debugger, for 5 years. I eventually ended up writing my own decoding and encoding libraries to support it, as well as a bunch of other things.
I'm good at this sort of nitpicky work, spotting and thinking about edge cases. I like getting things exactly right, even though that obviously isn't always possible due to various constraints. I've been kind of wondering if I should get into embedded development; I find it appealing when things are low-level or similarly constrained. I've beaten Microcorruption. :) (The original levels, I haven't played the new ones.)
I'm also quite interested in unusual or obscure data formats, and working on Truffle Debugger and its associated libraries certainly involved a bunch of having to figure undocumented formats and interfaces. :) I put down above what languages I've worked substantially in but I'd say I'm a generalist and will figure out whatever you give me (I knew approximately no Javascript, Typescript, or Solidity when I started working at Consensys).
I'm a mathematician by background and in my spare time, so after the Truffle Debugger project was shut down I took some time off to focus on my mathematical projects, including old ones I've been shepherding through publication. But now I'm looking for work again! If you need someone like me, I'm available for hire!
Former graphic designer turned software developer with 10+ years of professional experience. Most recently, I've been building highly dynamic frontends with React. Prior to that, I was re-writing legacy desktop applications as web based with Vue + Go + Postgres. I'm comfortable working across the stack, and adapting to new (or old!) technologies.
Currently working on a VST plugin in C++, and I have explored a number of other areas over the years. Such as: mobile, games, graphics programming, and embedded systems.
While most of my work has been web focused, I'm open to working in other areas. Check out my website, sectionfourteen.com, for more detailed info.

Senior backend / platform IC, 10+ years on distributed systems at Uber, DoorDash, Jobscan. Looking for a hands-on senior IC role — infrastructure, developer platforms, or applied AI systems.
At Uber, Developer Advocate for Cadence — the open-source workflow engine running 12B+ workflows/month internally. Onboarded 50+ teams, executed multi-region failovers on domains processing billions of daily ops, rebuilt cadenceworkflow.io, and shipped non-determinism detection via shadow replay. Before Uber: refund rules engine for McDonald's/Chipotle at DoorDash (500K refunds/month), and Interim Head of Engineering at Jobscan (97% → 99.99% uptime on AWS migration, $475K/yr recovered via payment A/B testing).
Currently shipping (June 2025 → now):
- Pursuit (co-founder, AI Scalathon Seattle 2026): agent-to-agent recruiting — a 3-min structured candidate/employer interview producing ranked multi-dimensional match scores. Ran live: 51 reports + 120 real matches against Microsoft, JPMorgan, Uber, CoreWeave, Adobe, Block, Boeing, Lululemon, SpaceX.
- Meridian: 29k-line TypeScript autonomous goal-graph executor (Postgres + MCP) that decomposes high-level charters into plan nodes and runs LLM-backed agents on a real-time dashboard.
- ApplyPilot (OSS, github.com/ibarrajo/ApplyPilot): multi-provider LLM orchestration with cost-aware routing across Gemini/OpenAI/Anthropic; Claude Code + Playwright integration across 40+ ATS workflows.
- OpenAI Parameter Golf: 14+ PRs opened to the 16MB / 10-min / 8xH100 LLM-training challenge. Hands-on with Int5/6 GPTQ, test-time training with score-first backprop, Triton kernels, Hessian-based calibration.
Looking for a team where shipping daily is the norm.
I solo-engineered Lustra.news because legislative data is an unmitigated mess. It's now a production-grade infrastructure managing 300k+ indexed pages with 99%+ hallucination-free AI summaries.
Looking for Founding Engineer or AI Architect roles where I can own the system and ship at velocity.
Also selling B2B API / MCP access to my unified legislative data (US/EU/PL/UK/DE/FR). Check the code on my GitHub.

Hi, I'm Nate. I am mostly open to moonlight contract/fractional work these days but interested in offering fixed price custom development for even the scrappiest of startups.
I am a Senior DevOps/Infrastructure/Full-stack engineer. First 10 years of my career was software development (LAMP & C# work). Last 10 years have been DevOps, SRE, and Infrastructure where I often still ended up in the code. I enjoy working in the security, finance, healthcare, and educational industries.
Backend engineer with experience leading teams, primarily working in Elixir/Phoenix but comfortable across the stack with GraphQL APIs, Node.js, React, Postgres/MySQL, and cloud infra on GCP/AWS with Kubernetes and Docker. Passionate about 0-to-1 work and product-driven development where engineering decisions are tied to real user outcomes.
I'm a full-stack designer/engineer with a focus on design and frontend working with early to mid-stage startups my entire career taking products from 0 to 1. I've recently been into AI and orchestration and have set up some pretty neat systems and side projects :)

10+ years building backend services, data pipelines, and on-chain infrastructure.
Most recently founding engineer at Moar Market (leveraged farming on Aptos, ~$7.5M peak TVL) — owned the full stack: Move contracts, indexers, off-chain liquidation engine, DB design, and infra end-to-end.
Before that, tech lead at Hubble Exchange — built a custom EVM-forked L1 for orderbook perps that scaled to 50,000 TPS and 30M+ transactions, including the matching engine, indexing stack, and an SDK for market makers. Earlier: backend at Zomato (Hyperpure greenfield) and Delhivery (WMS, marketplace integrations with Amazon/Paytm).
Recent side project: Deploy Terminal — an MCP-based trading terminal exposing Hyperliquid execution to LLM agents (Claude Code, openclaw etc.) with non-custodial wallet signing via Privy TEE.
Looking for: senior/lead engineer roles. I'm interested in web3, fintech, quant infra, and agentic solutions. Comfortable owning systems end-to-end; prefer small teams shipping fast over large orgs.
Not necessarily looking for full time employment, if someone just wants to do a trial via part time / fixed duration project, that would be even better for a start. My last 3 full time roles started like that.
Remote: Yes (in office also acceptable if it's Los Angeles or Pittsburgh)
Willing to relocate: Maybe
Technologies: I have taken many projects from discovery to delivery including both design and development for most projects I've worked on, although in my last position I was primarily focused on UI/UX. Technologies include UI/UX design with Figma, HTML, CSS (SASS, Tailwind), javascript (vanilla), responsive/mobile design, familiar with git and agile development, usability testing, Google Adwords and Analytics, comfortable in any operating system
Backend/platform engineer with 6 YOE. I started in DevOps consulting, building automation, CI/CD, and Terraform/Packer workflows for Fortune 500 clients, then moved into backend engineering on a healthcare claims/payments platform. Recent work includes owning a greenfield ingestion service from first commit to production, shipping cross-service billing integrations, resolving P1 performance issues, and supporting production services through Kubernetes, CI/CD, and observability ownership. Cut runtime by 90% on one client-sensitive workflow.
My name is Alvin. I am looking for a developer advocate role, Developer relations, Support engineer role, Backend engineer role, Systems engineer role, DevOps role.
About: I am a Generative AI Engineer who also happens to be pretty handy across the full stack. Most of my recent work has been building RAG pipelines, AI agents, and natural language search — using LangChain, LangGraph, and vector databases like Pinecone and ChromaDB — with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini APIs under the hood. I care deeply about shipping GenAI features that hold up beyond the demo stage.
Beyond GenAI, I am working on the full stack — React/TypeScript on the frontend, Node.js or ASP.NET Core APIs on the backend, and AWS/Azure for infra. I like owning things end-to-end and building software that's simple and reliable.

I do AI consulting to quickly deliver the outcomes you want. I'm primarily a founder building my own products, so consulting capacity is intentionally limited. If I take a project on, I deliver the scoped outcome on the agreed timeline. If it's not a fit, I'll tell you up front rather than stretch.
I build production AI features: LLM pipelines, paid AI products end-to-end (billing, licensing, deliverability), real-time data processing. And I ship fast using Claude Code Max + Codex for code review.
Recent shipped work:
- TimeBox — AI-native calendar (Electron + TypeScript, OpenRouter — provider-agnostic, any AI SDK; Supabase). In production, reaching out to potential users.
- PodcastBrief — Enter an Apple Podcast episode URL, get a brief on it with real reference links on all things mentioned, speaker quotes, and key ideas. Automated podcast-to-brief pipeline using Next.js, Railway workers, Deepgram, Browserbase, Arcjet, Stripe.
Problems I can solve:
- Subscription billing + license-key provisioning for paid desktop apps (LS/Stripe webhooks, installer downloads)
- Long-running async AI jobs that don't drop work
- Media processing pipelines
- Anti-abuse on AI endpoints
I do best with early-stage startups that need to ship an AI feature or integration in days or weeks, not quarters. I'm comfortable owning a full vertical — architecture, implementation, deployment.
Rate: Outcome-based, scoped per engagement. No hourly billing. 3 tiers of pricing: basics, enhanced value, and full accountability (above and beyond).
I help startups with the UX/UI and web design of their products. This includes web apps, websites, landing pages, copywriting, and I can assist with frontend development where needed. My background of launching my own products and being a full stack developer helps me create practical designs that balance usability, aesthetics, development effort, and performance. I work to fixed price quotes for self-contained projects.

The best live example of my work is Checkbot (https://checkbot.io/), a browser extension that tests websites for SEO/speed/security problems. The entire project is my own work including coding the extension itself, UX/UI design, website design (the homepage is optimised to load in 0.7 seconds, 0.3MB data transferred), marketing, website copy, and website articles on web best practices.

Hi, I'm Michael Geary. I've programmed in many languages and environments over the years. Some of my current interests are:
• Developer experience. I love helping my fellow developers solve problems, and building tools to make their jobs easier and more enjoyable.
• 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.
I'm a senior software engineer with 14 years of experience; I worked with small teams and enterprises, and I successfully contributed to the success of many products, Hire me if you want to onboard a passionate, team player, used to wear many hats, colleague.

Software Engineer · Backend & Distributed Systems · Rust · Remote from Brazil.
Experienced in high load high availability systems.
Backend engineer with 10 years of experience. Most of my work has been in data ingestion, ETL/analytics pipelines, distributed systems. I'm currently running my own company doing project-based AWS contracting work, but looking to return to a team environment.
Like this Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work, but I am open to work on any interesting project. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so I am in the process to relocate to Africa.
I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and I am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.
I value good teamwork over fancy tech, and I don't shy away from working on legacy code. I am primarily motivated by solving problems, so let me help you solve your problems.
I am open to work for a company anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.
While I could find a job elsewhere I believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location I am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.
In addition, I want to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. I also sponsor children that otherwise can't afford to go to school (see my website). If you want to support this, I would love to work with you. Also if you are interested in hiring African developers yourself. I can help you build up a team for you.

Hi, I'm George. I've been an early-stage startup engineer for about ten years and I'm looking for a product engineering role at a seed to Series B company.
I lean product engineer with a strong infra background. At Neurelo I was the first engineer and ran product alongside the founders — owned the roadmap, talked to design partners, and shaped the developer platform from concept to production. At Paramark there was no dedicated PM, so engineering was the product team in practice; I scoped features with the founders, talked to customers, and shipped end-to-end.
Recent work:
Paramark — Product engineer on a team without a dedicated PM. Owned features end-to-end. Also built internal data tooling and async processing pipelines on Kubernetes that took data prep from days to minutes for the analyst team.
Neurelo (founding engineer) — First engineer; led product alongside the founders and defined the roadmap. Designed the core architecture (Kubernetes-based infra for on-demand isolated customer deployments, systems for schemas and API-driven database access), built the team to eight engineers, and held technical and product direction through an executive transition.
Earlier: Stir (fintech for creators), Alto Pharmacy (led a team of five on patient-facing web/mobile, growth and experimentation), Bill.com (CI/CD work, cut Angular bundle size by 86%), and infra/data roles at Mimosa Networks and Zero Systems.
What I'm looking for: a small team, a product I can care about, and room to own real surface area.

I'm looking for monthly/yearly "no-strings" sponsors, not employment, if any individuals, companies (or bitcoin millionaires) would like to help a long-time OpenBSD slacker, unslack, I'd really like to focus more of my time on open source development (and advocacy), rather than making rent. Feel free to contact me (see HN bio).
On the topic of bitcoin millionaires... I'm getting some sponsorship for my FreeBSD release engineering work from https://opensats.org/ . Have you asked them?
I haven't, honestly the application processes, paperwork, project reporting expectations and eligibility criteria for these kind of funds just gives me too much anxiety. I never know how to navigate it as a Canadian either, most of them are US or Europe based.
I guess I'm naive to hold out for the anonymous bitcoin millionaires to donate "no strings" until I find something a bit more frictionless.
Thanks anyway for the suggestion, glad to hear you're getting sponsored for your FreeBSD work.

Engineering leader with nearly 20 years building teams that ship. Looking for Engineering Manager, Director, or VP roles.
Most recent: DevOps and Engineering Manager at Counterpart (insurance), where I led two full-stack teams plus DevOps and built an MCP infrastructure connecting GitHub, Linear, Salesforce, Snowflake, and Slack across the full insurance lifecycle. Agile success rate peaked at 89% against an 80% industry benchmark. A git-tracked Salesforce deployment pipeline I built on GitHub Actions saved roughly $20k a year and made deploys boring again.
Before that: Director of Engineering at Flourish Software (up to 15 engineers, 60% improvement in on-time delivery, 50% reduction in support load), Senior Full Stack at Expensify (moved millions of dollars a day, six-stack infrastructure), CEO of RedDep Labs (17 people, $8.6M valuation), CTO at iCracked (Y Combinator, 400+ technicians, dispatching system).
How I lead: I hire people who care about each other's success as much as their own, set clear commitments, and then trust the team to do the work. I trained as an actor and was a special education teacher before I wrote code, which is how I keep technical conversations legible to non-engineers and how I'm comfortable in any room.
Best fit: a team that values shipping over performance, has real users, and wants a leader technical enough to read the code and grounded enough to keep the team steady when things get hard.
Hi, I am Jojo Feng, a software engineer with 5 years of professional experience crafting mobile experiences. I started building mobile apps when I was in junior high, it was 2013, back when the Windows Phone was still a thing. I was appealed to the design system of Windows Phone (also because I was not able to afford a MacBook) so I learned C# and XAML after school and started build apps for it. Seeing positive reviews of my apps from users and how they provided values for them motivated me to pursue a career as a mobile engineer, and to this day, I'm still trying my best to bring the best mobile experience to those in need.
Full-stack JavaScript-focused engineer/entrepreneur with lots of experience in building scalable single page apps in different frameworks, web3, multiplayer web games, building transformers and other networks, all sorts of things. Product-oriented, executive and leadership experience, comfortable in both autonomous and collaborative settings, capable Linux sysadmin. I know how to ship, end to end.
I've focused for several years now on agentic and generative work such as simulating networked LLM-augmented embodied agents, interface research, too much to list here but always happy to talk more over email. While the rest of the industry is just starting to latch onto agentic systems, I can offer years of experience, product insight and leadership.
Available for consulting, startups, projects, anything web or agentic.
I've been using Go as my primary language for the last nine years, although I don't overly care about the specific language and have experience with a wide variety of tools and languages such as Python, Ruby, PHP, C, JavaScript, Lua, and probably some more. While I've mainly focused on backend in the last few years, I also have written plenty of frontend code over the years, from the "pre-jQuery" days to VueJS.
In the last few years I mainly focused on GoatCounter (https://www.goatcounter.com) with the occasional contract job, but I'm keen to start working on something new for the longer term.
I've got quite a bit of code on my GitHub, so you can take a look at that if you want: https://github.com/arp242

Compensation Expectation: $140k and $170k USD gross yearly
Hello Hacker News! I'm a CompSci PhD (AI Multi-Agent systems... doing Agents' research back in 2004, before they were cool haha) and a passionate technologist with a warm spot for building high-impact products and teams.
For over 20 years, I've loved being a hands-on leader in FinTech, building everything from scalable crypto trading desks and AI/ML systems for fraud detection, to migrating entire platforms from monoliths to robust, cloud-native microservices. I thrive on aligning engineering with business goals and tackling complex distributed systems challenges.
Zero-to-One Success: Built foundational tech/AI/ML at a Fintech, enabling the company's Series A. Executive & Scaling Experience: CTO of a crypto trading desk; Head of Engineering, Product or AI/ML at high-growth FinTechs.
I'm actively looking for a remote role, or for an absolute amazing opportunity, I would relocate. I am most comfortable as first/founding engineer, also have been head-of-tec/cto building startup's technology teams. Right now I am most interested in doing AI/LLM work, like really pushing the status quo of both the Engineering and AI/ML. (I would love to get into something like SSI).
A couple of interesting personal projects I'm working on now:
* I trained a couple of Transformers+MoE models to forecast the price of a REIT-like time series in Mexico (called FIBRA in Mexico): They observe heavy cyclical behaviours every quarter that can be isolated and used as information for forecasting. Good results, albeit not 'life changing' yet.
* I'm working on a "live weight adjustment" or "live training" framework for Transformers/MoE models to be able to use new information to modify the weights of the network slightly, without having to re-train the whole model. Kind of like LoRA/QLoRA, but making something usable for a live-running model.
* I am also experimenting with non-chat uses of text/token LLMs. LLMs are text generation machines, which leaving them "running" independently would be akin to our (people's) train of thought that starts since we are born. Having an LLM do that and finding ways give it "perceptors" for inputs (like IRQs in computers) for environment communication could yield interesting results.
I'm looking to do something interesting with good people. I'm thinking something pretty niche that's a real product and not some AI-based deal. Not that I have anything against AI, I kind of just don't want to chase the fad, you know.
The last thing place like that where I worked, iCare (formerly Centervue) makes fundus cameras for eye exams, and it was a really productive environment.
I don't need to chase a really high salary; I'm looking for something fun, challenging and meaningful.
HN isn't likely the place to look for it but I'm also kind of interested in something around housing policy or otherwise branching out from software. I've immensely enjoyed my volunteer work with a local YIMBY group (well, ok, I founded the group).
Software engineer with 8+ years of professional experience, focused on open-source developer tooling & build systems. 5 years at JetBrains. Ideally, I'd like my next job to be in Rust.
I do full-stack product design + development in one. In an agentic era, you don't need huge teams. If you have an idea, an LLM will vibe it most of the way, but won't think through real, human UX—I do. When you want to go all the way, hire me. https://inventbuild.studio

I'm building AILedger (ailedger.dev) — tamper-evident chain of custody for every AI inference an enterprise's product makes, aimed at the EU AI Act Article 12 / Article 79 compliance question (enforcement August 2, 2026). Pre-revenue, in early customer conversations. Public Rust work at github.com/jakejjoyner.
Primarily seeking short-term contract work (4-12 weeks, ~20-30 hr/week, $150/hr) to fund AILedger's runway. Open to fractional-engineer engagements. Will consider full-time only if exceptionally aligned with the AILedger thesis — compliance / AI infrastructure / audit / Cloudflare-edge stack.
Strongest fit:
- Audit / compliance-adjacent infrastructure: tamper-evident logging, evidence collection, SOC 2 / AI Act prep, cryptographic provenance.
- Cloudflare Workers / edge compute / API proxying — including AI inference middleware (cost metering, prompt-injection defense, observability).
- Rust greenfield, or Rust-meets-TypeScript stacks.
- Full-stack product work where correctness matters more than ship-speed.

There are 2 kinds of documentation: how to make something and how to use something. They are very different. When you are making something you need to document what it is supposed to do (because the code tells us what it does and bugs are when it does something incorrect). You also need to document why you decided to do it that way so when you go back in 6 months you can pick up more easily. When you are making user docs you need to think like a user, mainly assuming they never used it before, and they just want to get that task done so they can do all the other tasks they have to do. Documentation is customer facing because when docs work, customers learn to trust you.
I create documentation that builds trust and help customers use the product successfully. I reduced tech support calls by 60% and increased support website lists by 40%.
My background spans AI engineering, full-stack development, and systems design. I’ve shipped production-grade tools under real constraints, including a data science competition platform that handled sustained load for a hackathon we hosted at IEEE INSAT, an AI CLI assistant with 230+ GitHub stars and +800 Docker pulls, and an IoT anomaly detection engine for live solar sensor data for a winning hackathon project. Most recently, I’ve been building a multi-agent clinical reasoning platform at my part-time at a biotech startup alongside my studies.
I'm looking for remote internships or part-time positions in backend or AI.
My preferred next career move is independent contracting. 6-12 months contracts ideally. I will also consider permanent fully remote positions, but only quite senior ones - Staff Engineer / Architect level.
I've been fully remote since 2018 and I intend to keep it that way.

- An AI support agent that finds out the reason for the overdue tickets.
- Scraping pipeline that tracks 50k+ real estate listings daily without getting blocked.
I don't just write code. I sit with the ops problem first, then build the smallest system that solves it permanently.

I'm very interested in deep learning, formal verification, and compliance automation, but also artificial life, complexity science, robotics, cybernetics (as in Beer), computational social sciences, network science, transit, city planning, etc.
I use Claude Code happily at work, as directed, and seen significant (though not unqualified) productivity gains. I've used it to varying degrees on different personal projects. I'm avoiding it now on personal projects (to retain and build skill). I can work anywhere along that spectrum.
I enjoy learning about what other people are working on, so even if you're not hiring or not interested in hiring _me_, I'd love to connect. I've had some genuinely transformative conversations with people I've met on HN, and I'd love to have more.
I am a software engineer with 13 years of experience with javascript, and 3 years at a full stack developer with python. I have experience with SaaS, deploying and maintaining ML models in production, Biotech R&D, and LLM workflows. My latest project is a LLM career coach that guides you through achieving your goals and keeps you focused, based on enneagram and emotional intelligence scores.

Technologies: Full stack web dev for 15+ years in many forms. In recent years I've been focused on game development projects using Babylon/WebGL and working with C++ & Go server-side (MMO servers). Many years of project and product management as well.
I have some cool projects! See my personal site for email and some of those projects:
https://brynnbateman.com/
Coolest released one is probably https://www.idlequest.net/, which is an idle-game web-based version of classic EverQuest, complete with its original 3D graphics in-browser and a real-time MMO server! Had up to 70 players online at the same time a month or two ago.
About to release my biggest project, which is a full reverse engineering and re-implementation of the 2007 MMORPG "Vanguard".
Looking largely for product engineering positions, or project/product management style work. Have done both and enjoy both a lot. Open to contracting or full-time.

Hi, I'm Hajo. 20+ years shipping production systems, 12+ as CTO. I'm a fractional CTO and I offer AI R&D, performance optimization, and due diligence as freelance consulting services. You might know me from:
ImageRights: sole architect, 10+ years in prod. Web crawling stack (5000+ concurrent tasks via Ansible), distributed C++ content-based image retrieval database scaling to billions of web images, all internal AI filters, plus workflow automation. Still running today.
Spatial Audio Designer: sole developer. 500+ channels real-time on 2013 hardware. NEON / AVX-vectorized DSP, plugins for VST / RTAS / AU / AAX, kernel drivers for virtual sound cards on Mac and Windows, ARM port for embedded and VR. Still in use by famous Hollywood studios.
And yesterday, I figured out how to make MSFS2024 run with multi-camera and instrument pop-outs in Proton 11. Understanding the root cause required tracing the full stack from inside the game, through vkd3d, Proton, the host Linux OS, down to the GPU driver.
Ideally, I'm looking for 5-10 days per month part-time projects. Plus I'd love to work on applied AI / robotics.

Hi! I'm a backend engineer (~8 YOE) with strong backend & DevOps experience and decent frontend skills. Looking for a backend or backend-leaning full-stack role.
I worked at Automattic (US), the company behind WordPress; fully remote, async teams across the globe.
I've worked with time-sensitive, high-throughput, distributed services (millions of ops daily) and owned features and small- to mid-sized projects end-to-end from tech design to deployment. I do my best working autonomously, and I like to think of myself as a generalist.
I've been part of teams focused on speed and rapid iteration, and I've also worked on high-quality systems where long-term maintainability and reliability matter the most. I'm a pretty flexible and adaptable person.

I started working with AI back in 2014 and consider myself one of the early vibe coders. I’m interested in everything related to AI and security, I’ve worked on benchmarks, optimizations, training and inference, tinygrad, H100, B200, DeepSeek etc. I also developed an ultra-fast programming language for executing complex GPU workloads and created a generative OS for it.
Under 25, I created the core of a security scanner and built a hacking team at a UK startup ($7M investment). We removed the GIL from Python to run 30,000 threads and scan 18,000 exchange IPs for malware overnight.
I have many achievements, I created a Top-10 music app on the App Store and an Instagram filter editor for a social network that had 28,000 users at launch.
I worked on a top-30 cryptocurrency in AI and built a better version of BitChat.

I'm graduating in a month, so I'm seeking junior/graduate-level roles that revolve around backend and systems development where I can learn a lot. My experience includes four internships and multiple side projects (please check my resume and GitHub).
I started programming on my own at the age of 15. Since then, I have explored multiple areas, including mobile app development (native and Flutter), web development (React, Next.js, Vue), QA, MLOps, and AI/ML. During this exploration phase, I realized that I want to focus my career on backend development.
Most of my coding experience is in Java and Python. I also really enjoy Kotlin and am currently learning Go (Golang) by building a simple VPN as a side project. However, I am not limited only to these languages.

I've worked as a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) for over 12 years across startups, midsize, and FAANG companies with a focus on automating tests and processes which are often repetitively mundane or large time sinks. This ranges from writing said automated tests for web and mobile devices to the frameworks that run them. I also have experience in managing teams of people that take care of these tasks.
I enjoy the time saving nature of automation and have a genuine interest in maintaining a high degree of product quality. While my work has been SDET related up until now, I am open to developer roles as well since there is a high degree of overlap.
If you would like to get to know more about my experience work wise or personal projects feel free to send me an email.

What I’ve been working on lately:
LLM introspection tooling and observability, mainly around token-level behavior during inference; Also experimented with inference-time interventions (no retraining) e.g. improved DeBERTa on HANS via targeted layer/head adjustments.
I just put up a small demo of part of the tooling (HF Space):
https://huggingface.co/spaces/anotheruserishere/Cartogemma
It exposes:
-per-head projections into token space (logit lens-style)
-token rank changes across layers for target-tokens ("rank displacement")
-top-k next-token branches with internal state views
-mute a head at a given L x H coordinate
-inject tokens or rewind context
There's a minimal example in the UI showing how token candidates stabilize (or don’t) across layers
Background: ~15 years in data science/ analytics (higher ed), mostly translating technical work into decisions & policy for leadership. More recently focused on LLM internals + tooling (Python/Rust, local model stacks, etc.) and agentic analytical tools for operational use. Background in philosophy / applied linguistics & NLP; previously designed and taught a course on propaganda (how language shapes reactions to media etc.).
Looking for: roles around LLM tooling, evals, interpretability, or applied AI where understanding model behavior is useful.
Tech: Python, Rust, SQL, embeddings, local LLM infra

Hi, I'm Jonathan. I’m currently doing DevOps work for an open source project, operate a small web hosting company, and working as an accounting assistant for a local firm. My skillset is focused on the System Administration/DevOps side, with a bit of general dev experience primarily with Python. I have a PhD in Physics with my research focus being computational biophysics. On the side I also host my own infrastructure as a hobby, from the hardware to the nameservers and everything in between.
Having worked at startups before, I’m comfortable wearing many hats (and enjoy the variety).
I spent a decade as CTO at EMEX, growing the engineering team from scratch through private equity acquisition. Today I operate through Brightform Technology, working with founders who need senior-level engineering without a full-time hire. The kind of problems where product sense and architectural judgment matter as much as code output.
Past work:
* Led all frontend architecture for an IoT platform processing high-volume sensor data across nationwide deployments. Built real-time building floorplan visualization, time-series HVAC dashboards, and a modular device configuration system.
* First engineering hire → CTO at EMEX. Built the flagship real-time reverse auction platform that drove seven-figure annual sales. Grew and led a team of 6 through acquisition.
Best fit: founders with a clear idea and the budget to move fast. You might have Figma mockups, a vibe-coded prototype, or just a well-defined concept. I bring product direction alongside the engineering.

Background: Masters in control theory and signal processing, working in the auto industry for the last 7 years, first on low level powertrain software then the last year or so on LIDAR/computer vision for autonomous vehicles. I've done the most work in C, but I'm now contributing to safety development work with the Rust consortium and Ferrous Systems through my current employer. Recently had to read the Linux kernel source and use the BCC tool suite to find a subtle issue in the network stack causing high latency on sensor data for AV, also coincidentally fixed most of the network timing infrastructure.
Currently doing software defined vehicle software architecture with a focus on fail-safe and fail-operational, loosely coupled, distributed systems. This includes some standards contributions and work with high level suppliers like Nvidia and Renesas for next-generation software/hardware system co-development.
Primary skills include hard real time embedded systems, safety critical applications, firmware development, system integration and complex hardware/software interaction debugging, along with detailed data analysis problems.
Side interests include machining, 3D printing, embedded system development, coffee roasting and furniture making.
Most interested in observability platforms, data infrastructure, and AI engineering broadly — anywhere AI is sharpening human judgment rather than displacing it. Currently building out infrastructure tooling in Go using agentic workflows (Claude Code).
Works across the stack — each layer has its own problems worth solving. Publishes on engineering decision frameworks and AI-augmented development workflows.
Pursuing CKA. Not interested in defense, crypto, or gambling.

15 years in tech doing a job that has a lot of names depending on the company — platform engineer, support engineer, internal developer advocate — but always the same core function: making sure the humans using internal infrastructure aren't left to figure it out alone. At Atlassian I was embedded with the security platform team, sitting in sprint planning, tracking support patterns, and making sure user pain shaped the roadmap rather than being tossed in the backlog pile. If your platform team is building great things that nobody can figure out how to use or troubleshoot, that's the problem I'm good at solving.

Senior software engineer, 20+ years on production systems. Working on neural nets since 1996 (neuroevolution, genetic programming) — multiple AI cycles' worth of perspective on what survives the hype. Currently building a regulatory forecasting system for Polish law: ingesting statutes back to 1944, building a graph of legislation and amendments, reasoning about where the regulatory surface is moving. The hard problems are PDF → structured graph at scale and reasoning under uncertainty, not the model wrapper.
I also write about where AI coding agents actually work and where they quietly fail.
Best fit when the work is engineering-shaped — application/data rather than infra/SRE/Kubernetes-heavy — and the schedule overlaps EU hours. Comfortable as autonomous IC or small-team tech lead. Domains where messy real-world data meets non-trivial reasoning are where I'm sharpest — regulatory, legal, scientific, financial.

Senior Full-Stack AI Engineer with experience building production-grade Generative AI systems, multi-agent architectures, and real-time intelligent applications. Skilled in LLM orchestration, RAG systems, vector databases, and cloud AI platforms. Strong background in full-stack development using React, Next.js, Python, and FastAPI, with hands-on experience designing scalable backend systems, voice AI assistants, and distributed asynchronous architectures. Focused on delivering end-to-end AI solutions that combine modern interfaces with robust, production-ready AI infrastructure.
Most of my background in software is from doing game development in C++ back in the day as a hobby (as you may be able to tell from the heavily WIP website), but I'm rusty, as I switched to Godot many years ago.
I'm looking for a new job that won't compromise on my current work-life balance and pays enough to justify living in the city (>120 a year).
I probably wouldn't pass a technical interview, but I'm open to (and enjoy) learning new stuff. The industry you're in doesn't matter, but you will get bonus points if you're working on a meaningful problem like climate.

Principal, Agentic Engineering Systems · "I ship with agents."
PhD Mathematics · 15+ years production AI/ML.
I build self-improving engineering systems that ship PRs against real enterprise codebases, including personal agents that learn each engineer's context and expertise, and the harness that keeps them in bounds.
Most recently I led an AI tooling team at a Big 4 professional services firm, building production LLM tooling on open-source agent/RAG components. Before that I designed autonomous engineering systems for real enterprise software workflows. They used the same channels any engineer does: repos, PRs, CI, and Slack.
That work, including unsupervised runs on real production code, made the next bottleneck obvious: capability isn't the hard limit anymore. Authority, trust, and blast radius are.
I've hardened the design into an Agent Harness architecture: authority boundaries, blast-radius scoring, multi-agent consensus, and human approval routing. Other teams reached out to learn the approach.
Background: led MLOps adoption across 30+ business units; drove $48M in annual data-cost reduction; built production RAG and Slackbot systems for public sector and Fortune-scale telecom. ML roots in signal processing, frame theory, NLP, time-series, and applied math. US patent pending.
Looking for work building governed engineering-agent fleets: personal agents that learn each engineer's context and expertise, shared team agents that coordinate across repos and workflows, and the control plane that keeps it safe enough to run in prod. Also a good fit for agentic SDLC platforms, internal AI infrastructure, or principal-architect work. Prefer C2C/1099, open to full-time or fractional.

Senior backend and infrastructure engineer, available for part-time contract work (8–16 hours/week) alongside an existing engagement.
I currently own the full backend and infrastructure layer for a EU company: Python APIs (Flask/FastAPI), PostgreSQL and Redis, AWS infrastructure managed with Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, and Kubernetes workloads. I've performed cloud migrations between AWS, Azure, and DigitalOcean, and taken ownership of legacy systems that nobody else wanted to touch. Happy to be the person your team pings when something is broken and nobody knows why.

I've mostly been a first or founding engineer, owning systems that have to scale early. I focus on high-throughput pipelines, messaging systems, media transcoding, and recommendations—areas where issues show up under load, retries, and edge cases.
I also build real-time dashboards to observe and control these systems, using local-first approaches and browser-based technologies for media processing and realtime communication.
- Messaging systems delivering millions of emails and push notifications in minutes (retries, deliverability, observability)
- Browser-based video editing and encoding platform using FFmpeg, Supabase, and AWS
- Real-time pipelines and recommendation systems for tens of millions of users
- Scaled event ingestion ~100x for analytics and experimentation
I do my best work in small, product-focused teams, owning systems end-to-end, staying close to production, and communicating early around risks and tradeoffs.
- Founding or early engineering roles (full-time, part-time, or contract)
- Backend or infrastructure-heavy work
- Products with real users or a clear path to them

In practice I've been a micro-team technical lead and worked at a "Staff" level, just never got the title bump on paper. In graduate school I attempted a solo founder thing and they say that startup itch never entirely leaves you and there is a small part of me wondering if it is time to seek the right Technical Cofounder opportunity.

I'm good at this sort of nitpicky work, spotting and thinking about edge cases. I like getting things exactly right, even though that obviously isn't always possible due to various constraints. I've been kind of wondering if I should get into embedded development; I find it appealing when things are low-level or similarly constrained. I've beaten Microcorruption. :) (The original levels, I haven't played the new ones.)
I'm also quite interested in unusual or obscure data formats, and working on Truffle Debugger and its associated libraries certainly involved a bunch of having to figure undocumented formats and interfaces. :) I put down above what languages I've worked substantially in but I'd say I'm a generalist and will figure out whatever you give me (I knew approximately no Javascript, Typescript, or Solidity when I started working at Consensys).
I'm a mathematician by background and in my spare time, so after the Truffle Debugger project was shut down I took some time off to focus on my mathematical projects, including old ones I've been shepherding through publication. But now I'm looking for work again! If you need someone like me, I'm available for hire!

Looking for: freelance contracts or part-time engagements with founders who need a reliable technical partner, not just someone to push code.
I'm a Full-Stack Developer, Web Designer and Image Editor with over 25 years of professional experience. Problem-solver and avid learner, I'm used to working with small and large teams across enterprise, government and third sector. I take deadlines and delivery commitments very seriously.
At Uber, Developer Advocate for Cadence — the open-source workflow engine running 12B+ workflows/month internally. Onboarded 50+ teams, executed multi-region failovers on domains processing billions of daily ops, rebuilt cadenceworkflow.io, and shipped non-determinism detection via shadow replay. Before Uber: refund rules engine for McDonald's/Chipotle at DoorDash (500K refunds/month), and Interim Head of Engineering at Jobscan (97% → 99.99% uptime on AWS migration, $475K/yr recovered via payment A/B testing).
Currently shipping (June 2025 → now):
- Pursuit (co-founder, AI Scalathon Seattle 2026): agent-to-agent recruiting — a 3-min structured candidate/employer interview producing ranked multi-dimensional match scores. Ran live: 51 reports + 120 real matches against Microsoft, JPMorgan, Uber, CoreWeave, Adobe, Block, Boeing, Lululemon, SpaceX.
- Meridian: 29k-line TypeScript autonomous goal-graph executor (Postgres + MCP) that decomposes high-level charters into plan nodes and runs LLM-backed agents on a real-time dashboard.
- ApplyPilot (OSS, github.com/ibarrajo/ApplyPilot): multi-provider LLM orchestration with cost-aware routing across Gemini/OpenAI/Anthropic; Claude Code + Playwright integration across 40+ ATS workflows.
- OpenAI Parameter Golf: 14+ PRs opened to the 16MB / 10-min / 8xH100 LLM-training challenge. Hands-on with Int5/6 GPTQ, test-time training with score-first backprop, Triton kernels, Hessian-based calibration.
Looking for a team where shipping daily is the norm.

10+ years building backend services, data pipelines, and on-chain infrastructure.
Most recently founding engineer at Moar Market (leveraged farming on Aptos, ~$7.5M peak TVL) — owned the full stack: Move contracts, indexers, off-chain liquidation engine, DB design, and infra end-to-end.
Before that, tech lead at Hubble Exchange — built a custom EVM-forked L1 for orderbook perps that scaled to 50,000 TPS and 30M+ transactions, including the matching engine, indexing stack, and an SDK for market makers. Earlier: backend at Zomato (Hyperpure greenfield) and Delhivery (WMS, marketplace integrations with Amazon/Paytm).
Recent side project: Deploy Terminal — an MCP-based trading terminal exposing Hyperliquid execution to LLM agents (Claude Code, openclaw etc.) with non-custodial wallet signing via Privy TEE.
Looking for: senior/lead engineer roles. I'm interested in web3, fintech, quant infra, and agentic solutions. Comfortable owning systems end-to-end; prefer small teams shipping fast over large orgs.
Not necessarily looking for full time employment, if someone just wants to do a trial via part time / fixed duration project, that would be even better for a start. My last 3 full time roles started like that.

About: I am a Generative AI Engineer who also happens to be pretty handy across the full stack. Most of my recent work has been building RAG pipelines, AI agents, and natural language search — using LangChain, LangGraph, and vector databases like Pinecone and ChromaDB — with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini APIs under the hood. I care deeply about shipping GenAI features that hold up beyond the demo stage.
Beyond GenAI, I am working on the full stack — React/TypeScript on the frontend, Node.js or ASP.NET Core APIs on the backend, and AWS/Azure for infra. I like owning things end-to-end and building software that's simple and reliable.

I do AI consulting to quickly deliver the outcomes you want. I'm primarily a founder building my own products, so consulting capacity is intentionally limited. If I take a project on, I deliver the scoped outcome on the agreed timeline. If it's not a fit, I'll tell you up front rather than stretch.
I build production AI features: LLM pipelines, paid AI products end-to-end (billing, licensing, deliverability), real-time data processing. And I ship fast using Claude Code Max + Codex for code review.
Recent shipped work:
- TimeBox — AI-native calendar (Electron + TypeScript, OpenRouter — provider-agnostic, any AI SDK; Supabase). In production, reaching out to potential users.
- PodcastBrief — Enter an Apple Podcast episode URL, get a brief on it with real reference links on all things mentioned, speaker quotes, and key ideas. Automated podcast-to-brief pipeline using Next.js, Railway workers, Deepgram, Browserbase, Arcjet, Stripe.
Problems I can solve:
- Subscription billing + license-key provisioning for paid desktop apps (LS/Stripe webhooks, installer downloads) - Long-running async AI jobs that don't drop work - Media processing pipelines - Anti-abuse on AI endpoints
I do best with early-stage startups that need to ship an AI feature or integration in days or weeks, not quarters. I'm comfortable owning a full vertical — architecture, implementation, deployment.
Rate: Outcome-based, scoped per engagement. No hourly billing. 3 tiers of pricing: basics, enhanced value, and full accountability (above and beyond).

SEEKING FREELANCE WORK | UX/UI & web design
I help startups with the UX/UI and web design of their products. This includes web apps, websites, landing pages, copywriting, and I can assist with frontend development where needed. My background of launching my own products and being a full stack developer helps me create practical designs that balance usability, aesthetics, development effort, and performance. I work to fixed price quotes for self-contained projects.
---
The best live example of my work is Checkbot (https://checkbot.io/), a browser extension that tests websites for SEO/speed/security problems. The entire project is my own work including coding the extension itself, UX/UI design, website design (the homepage is optimised to load in 0.7 seconds, 0.3MB data transferred), marketing, website copy, and website articles on web best practices.

Hi, I'm Michael Geary. I've programmed in many languages and environments over the years. Some of my current interests are:
• Developer experience. I love helping my fellow developers solve problems, and building tools to make their jobs easier and more enjoyable.
• 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!

Like this Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work, but I am open to work on any interesting project. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so I am in the process to relocate to Africa.
I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and I am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.
I value good teamwork over fancy tech, and I don't shy away from working on legacy code. I am primarily motivated by solving problems, so let me help you solve your problems.
I am open to work for a company anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.
While I could find a job elsewhere I believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location I am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.
In addition, I want to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. I also sponsor children that otherwise can't afford to go to school (see my website). If you want to support this, I would love to work with you. Also if you are interested in hiring African developers yourself. I can help you build up a team for you.

Independent systems developer, 27.
Filed US Provisional Patent #63/942,399 in December 2025 covering an offline memory lifecycle management system for mobile AI. Reference implementation on Android (M3mo Vault): FTS4 + TF-IDF hybrid search at 0.78 microseconds/memory on 10K-entry scale, 7-factor decay algorithm validated via ablation study (12x weight differentiation vs 2x baseline), 7-layer ServiceLocator DI replacing Hilt.
Also building Entropix Engine — a zero-GC browser game engine in vanilla JavaScript sustaining 3,000+ entities at 60 TPS. Structure-of-Arrays memory layout, GridHash spatial partitioning, deterministic fixed-timestep loop, featuring an adaptive grid-sampling fix resolving buffer overflow on high-refresh-rate displays. Live prototype on https://retroindex.org. 60 days into development, 13 milestones shipped. Weekly devlog on r/gamedev.
Past commercial work: scaled an e-commerce operation from $20K/mo to $140K/mo (7x) over 2 years through hand-coded HTML and SEO engineering — 700+ product pages under strict eBay platform constraints (no external CSS/JS allowed), with automated template pipeline reducing launch time 20%.
Background: BS Data Analysis Psychology, UC Davis (2021).

Hi, I'm George. I've been an early-stage startup engineer for about ten years and I'm looking for a product engineering role at a seed to Series B company.
I lean product engineer with a strong infra background. At Neurelo I was the first engineer and ran product alongside the founders — owned the roadmap, talked to design partners, and shaped the developer platform from concept to production. At Paramark there was no dedicated PM, so engineering was the product team in practice; I scoped features with the founders, talked to customers, and shipped end-to-end.
Recent work:
Paramark — Product engineer on a team without a dedicated PM. Owned features end-to-end. Also built internal data tooling and async processing pipelines on Kubernetes that took data prep from days to minutes for the analyst team.
Neurelo (founding engineer) — First engineer; led product alongside the founders and defined the roadmap. Designed the core architecture (Kubernetes-based infra for on-demand isolated customer deployments, systems for schemas and API-driven database access), built the team to eight engineers, and held technical and product direction through an executive transition.
Earlier: Stir (fintech for creators), Alto Pharmacy (led a team of five on patient-facing web/mobile, growth and experimentation), Bill.com (CI/CD work, cut Angular bundle size by 86%), and infra/data roles at Mimosa Networks and Zero Systems. What I'm looking for: a small team, a product I can care about, and room to own real surface area.

On the topic of bitcoin millionaires... I'm getting some sponsorship for my FreeBSD release engineering work from https://opensats.org/ . Have you asked them?
I haven't, honestly the application processes, paperwork, project reporting expectations and eligibility criteria for these kind of funds just gives me too much anxiety. I never know how to navigate it as a Canadian either, most of them are US or Europe based.
I guess I'm naive to hold out for the anonymous bitcoin millionaires to donate "no strings" until I find something a bit more frictionless.
Thanks anyway for the suggestion, glad to hear you're getting sponsored for your FreeBSD work.
They're US based but I'm in Canada and haven't had any issues. Yes they ask for some information but it's not at all unreasonable.

My resume: https://resume.gauntletwizard.net/ThomasHahnResume.pdf
My LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-hahn-3344ba3/
My Github: https://github.com/GauntletWizard
Most recent: DevOps and Engineering Manager at Counterpart (insurance), where I led two full-stack teams plus DevOps and built an MCP infrastructure connecting GitHub, Linear, Salesforce, Snowflake, and Slack across the full insurance lifecycle. Agile success rate peaked at 89% against an 80% industry benchmark. A git-tracked Salesforce deployment pipeline I built on GitHub Actions saved roughly $20k a year and made deploys boring again.
Before that: Director of Engineering at Flourish Software (up to 15 engineers, 60% improvement in on-time delivery, 50% reduction in support load), Senior Full Stack at Expensify (moved millions of dollars a day, six-stack infrastructure), CEO of RedDep Labs (17 people, $8.6M valuation), CTO at iCracked (Y Combinator, 400+ technicians, dispatching system).
How I lead: I hire people who care about each other's success as much as their own, set clear commitments, and then trust the team to do the work. I trained as an actor and was a special education teacher before I wrote code, which is how I keep technical conversations legible to non-engineers and how I'm comfortable in any room.
Best fit: a team that values shipping over performance, has real users, and wants a leader technical enough to read the code and grounded enough to keep the team steady when things get hard.

Hi, I am Jojo Feng, a software engineer with 5 years of professional experience crafting mobile experiences. I started building mobile apps when I was in junior high, it was 2013, back when the Windows Phone was still a thing. I was appealed to the design system of Windows Phone (also because I was not able to afford a MacBook) so I learned C# and XAML after school and started build apps for it. Seeing positive reviews of my apps from users and how they provided values for them motivated me to pursue a career as a mobile engineer, and to this day, I'm still trying my best to bring the best mobile experience to those in need.

Compensation Expectation: $140k and $170k USD gross yearly
Hello Hacker News! I'm a CompSci PhD (AI Multi-Agent systems... doing Agents' research back in 2004, before they were cool haha) and a passionate technologist with a warm spot for building high-impact products and teams.
For over 20 years, I've loved being a hands-on leader in FinTech, building everything from scalable crypto trading desks and AI/ML systems for fraud detection, to migrating entire platforms from monoliths to robust, cloud-native microservices. I thrive on aligning engineering with business goals and tackling complex distributed systems challenges.
Zero-to-One Success: Built foundational tech/AI/ML at a Fintech, enabling the company's Series A. Executive & Scaling Experience: CTO of a crypto trading desk; Head of Engineering, Product or AI/ML at high-growth FinTechs.
I'm actively looking for a remote role, or for an absolute amazing opportunity, I would relocate. I am most comfortable as first/founding engineer, also have been head-of-tec/cto building startup's technology teams. Right now I am most interested in doing AI/LLM work, like really pushing the status quo of both the Engineering and AI/ML. (I would love to get into something like SSI).
A couple of interesting personal projects I'm working on now:
* I trained a couple of Transformers+MoE models to forecast the price of a REIT-like time series in Mexico (called FIBRA in Mexico): They observe heavy cyclical behaviours every quarter that can be isolated and used as information for forecasting. Good results, albeit not 'life changing' yet.
* I'm working on a "live weight adjustment" or "live training" framework for Transformers/MoE models to be able to use new information to modify the weights of the network slightly, without having to re-train the whole model. Kind of like LoRA/QLoRA, but making something usable for a live-running model.
* I am also experimenting with non-chat uses of text/token LLMs. LLMs are text generation machines, which leaving them "running" independently would be akin to our (people's) train of thought that starts since we are born. Having an LLM do that and finding ways give it "perceptors" for inputs (like IRQs in computers) for environment communication could yield interesting results.

I'm looking to do something interesting with good people. I'm thinking something pretty niche that's a real product and not some AI-based deal. Not that I have anything against AI, I kind of just don't want to chase the fad, you know.
The last thing place like that where I worked, iCare (formerly Centervue) makes fundus cameras for eye exams, and it was a really productive environment.
I don't need to chase a really high salary; I'm looking for something fun, challenging and meaningful.
HN isn't likely the place to look for it but I'm also kind of interested in something around housing policy or otherwise branching out from software. I've immensely enjoyed my volunteer work with a local YIMBY group (well, ok, I founded the group).
