Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (June 2014)

by jader201·12y ago·250 comments·view on hn ↗
Note: This was posted last month [1], and received a lot of up votes and some positive feedback [2]. So re-posting again for June 2014. Also note that I will not be submitting my resume this time due to making a successful connection [3] with an awesome startup as the result of last month's run.

If you're looking to be hired by a company, please use this thread to let other HN members know.

If you're looking for talent, by all means, check out the candidates below and if you see a good fit, connect! Please no recruiters, unless specifically indicated (opt-in).

If you're not hiring/looking to be hired, take a look over the candidates below and connect with them if you're aware of a potential fit for them.

Up/Down Voting: I would propose that up/down voting be reserved to help promote high quality submissions, and push down those clearly not putting in much effort or are off-topic. Use sparingly.

I am loosely proposing the following format (obviously you're welcome to use any format you'd like):

  [Location], [Remote | Relocation], [Full Time | Contract | Part Time]

  Stack: [Comma delimited list of technologies]

  Resume: [Link to resume]

I've been programming since I was 14, and started doing it professionally at 20. I'm currently the "jack of all trades" programmer-and-more in a small IT department for a ~2000 employee company. I've enjoyed incredible flexibility to learn and implement different technologies in my current role, but unfortunately, I have to begin looking elsewhere as we're quickly losing our autonomy to our enterprisey parent company.

The approximate responsibility split at my current job is 60% pure software development, 20% devops, and 20% networking. I absolutely adore C#, but since it isn't as vogue as I wish it was, I should mention that I'm almost as fluent in several other languages. I'm proud of having a well-diversified set of skills, and if my "keyword soup" resume piques your interest, I'd love to have a more in-depth conversation with you.

I'm tied to the area for family at the moment, but I'd be happy to spend a bit on a coworking space and work remotely.

Sao Paulo/Brazil, Remote / Relocation, Full time

  What I'm looking in a company:

  Sorry for the expression, but I'm willing to shove shit for your company in order to work and live abroad. I'm very interested in moving to the US, Canada or Europe.

   I code since I was 10. I'm a very all around software engineer and currently work for one of the major media companies here in Brazil. I deal daily with mid-large scale issues and develop a inhouse CMS(in Rails) that powers the R7.com website and A LOT of webservices in node.js and sinatra.

   I've worked in my past for Rocket Internet in a taxi app and as a lead engineer for a Square clone called Payleven.

   I _promise_ I'll deliver very good software for your company. I accept tests that involve doing remote work or anything, feel free to talk with me about anything.

I'm looking for a data scientist position in San Francisco or remote. By training I'm a PhD computational physicist, but have been working as a data science consultant for the past year and a half. I am a generalist, with a focus on analysis and simulations, but have experience across the whole spectrum of data science (i.e. data acquisition, cleaning, modeling, machine learning, evaluation, etc.). I'm looking to join a team of really smart people working on something interesting. I love learning new stuff and hearing about what people are working on.

Belgium, Europe (for now). Remote. Maybe on-site in London. Occasional travel possible as well. Full time or contract

Stack: Mobile (mainly iOS -> objective-C), C/C++, Java (+JNI). Back end (PHP, some python, MySQL, SQLite, RabbitMQ). Some Bitcoin experience. All sorts of other random things I've been playing around with.

Resume: Upon request

Contact: See profile

I'm an independent developer who has launched two apps that have sold well (concept -> finished app). Looking for a company where I can leverage that experience. Could be dev, product or a mix of both.

My specialties are mobile apps (also: C/C++ on mobile, audio code, OpenGL ES, websockets), real time systems, security and encryption, and multi platform portable software and libraries (e.g. that run on mobile, desktop and embedded systems).

Would love to talk if you're doing cool stuff with either mobile or Bitcoin (or both!).

Location: Relocate to London from Budapest (EU citizen)

Stack: I am a PHP/JS developer (1.5+ years of working experience) but I want to move to Scala

Resume: on request

Contact: luosathn@gmail.com

If you are looking for a junior scala programmer in London I would gladly relocate. I am learning computer engineering at the Budapest University of Technology but I only finished the 90% of the BSc. I am a student now but I decided it would be better if I get some fresh air outside my home city.

In 2010 I worked 3 months as a "data management" intern in a bank. I did the intern things of looking things up in the bank's databases, learning about the systems, writing Oracle, MSSQL queries. From 2012 to the end 2013 I worked part and full time (when I had time besides the school) as a PHP developer at a small company. My task was to maintain and develop PHP and MySQL/MSSQL applications. But sometimes I had to tackle things like XSL.

In the meantime I started my own company to operate a family business, my work was to set up webshops, managing the hosting and small developments. We tried ourselves in the social buying hype too but it did not work out as planned. I usually used prestashop and joomla for these.

In late 2013 I decided to focus on school but I just could not get into the right mindset so I decided to try something new and try to relocate to London.

Last year I started working on a hobby scala-play project and I started to like the language. I think it is the most usable language I used (despite its quirks). I am managing the Linux VPS which this app runs on, so I am somewhat familiar with linux systems, my desktop is linux too. I tried several technologies like rails, node.js or laravel but these are just to improve my knowledge.

I am looking for a scala job opportunity mainly in the webdevelopment/distributed-systems part but I am interested in other type of jobs too. I am a webdeveloper but I really like solving IT Security problems (like the Stripe CTF) too.

I am currently living in Budapest so I need time to relocate. If the company could help in finding a room that would be good but if not, that is not a problem.

Would you be interested in remote, contract scala work?
Ontario, Canada. Remote or Local (no relocation). Full Time | Contract | Part Time

Stack: C/C++, Python, Lisp (Common Lisp, Scheme, Clojure, Hy), OpenStack

Resume: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11810776/cv.pdf

Contact: In my CV, profile

10+ years of experience across a wide range of technologies. My passions are distributed systems, graphics, artificial intelligence, and compilers. I've worked on large and small web projects, object storage, devops, and contribute to open source projects such as Firefox, WebGL, Openstack, Hy, and others. I am completely self-taught.

I'm currently catching up on chemistry in my spare time. I'm enthusiastic about following the work of T.J. Hutton on artificial chemistries, artificial life, etc and even more recently, agronomy. I just built a raised garden box in my backyard and am setting up some sensors (based on the arduino board) to detect and report water levels. My goal is to find (or develop if I must) cheap (ish) sensors to detect more complex compounds such as phosphorous, nitrogen, carbon, potassium, etc. I hope to turn crop rotations into a constraint search/machine learning problem. Along the way I may end up optimizing the component cost of my raised boxes to make dense, affordable urban farming accessible to busy urban dwelling people (automate all the things!).

If you have a challenging problem or unique application that requires someone who is methodical and passionate about their craft then I might be the person you're looking for. I'm interested in projects related to science, game development/graphics, distributed systems, or computing environments (I believe the power of programming should be available to anyone who needs it in environments and languages they're accustomed to). I prefer to work on Open Source software where possible. If you need a technical co-founder for a really interesting project (something that could help us avoid the post-antibiotic future, adapt to climate change, are interested in exploring programming-system-as-operating-system, or bring back people traumatized by mathematics) you should send me an email and get in touch.

I'm a recent graduate in Computational Linguistics who's looking for an opportunity to do interesting work in various aspects of NLP, as well as general data science and web dev-related work. I also have a background in GIS from a former career and it would be particularly awesome to find a position that allows me to tie mapping and data analysis together. Most of all, though, I just want to get my hands dirty in the nuts and bolts of your app and help you build something cool -- an API, a recommender, analytics tools, or whatever you have in mind. I love learning about new verticals and if you're in a niche industry that isn't "sexy", all the better! At this point in my career, company size isn't a huge issue for me; I feel that I can learn a lot in any situation. Local to San Diego or remote would be great, and my family and I would consider relocating to the Bay Area, Austin, or D.C.

I'm a junior-going-on-intermediate web dev - I got bitten with the code bug two or three years ago, although I've been conversant in HTML and CSS since 2004. I'm a stubborn autodidact, and my day job consists mostly of using Javascript to compensate for extraordinarily limited access to an outsourced server app, for a medium sized B2B publisher, largely unsupervised - I am the dictionary definition of a duct-tape coder. In this capacity, I have fallen in love with AngularJS. I also write small APIs mostly using Rails (yes, it is overkill, but it is very quick to get up and running), and do freelance work, the biggest job so far being a Django site.

Looking for a company that'll take a chance on a feral junior matching the above description, making interesting web apps in Ruby or Python (or JS), and most of all an environment where I could level up - bigger ongoing projects with modern development practices. (The benefit to you: so far I've been very good at the level grinding.)

Passionate & dedicated frontend & backend webdeveloper with a special interest in websocket/webrtc/isomorphic webapp implementation & design. I'm currently writing an open-source isomorphic p2p web-framework called high5. Together with a former collegue, I wrote a simple but effective webrtc video-conferencing prototype app(https://r00my.com/) as part of an YC-application. The past year I worked on a few Meteor projects and learned some things about reactive programming styles and two-way data-binding. I also worked on projects using Python, Django, Flask, Pyramid, Twisted & Plone.

I'm looking for a mid-sized, informal & inspiring tech-company, with nodejs in it's backend stack, and is offering a challenging and interesting backend/frontend vacancy with relocation option or with the option to work remotely. Feel free to email me for more information.

Overview: CS grad as of August at top CS school, contracting in Bay Area late June / early July so available for interviews at that time. This is my 2nd degree, I am a mature new grad in my early 30s with a deep and diverse resume straddling audio engineering, music and audio software, HCI/interactivity software, AAA game development, and graphics/animation research including VR. I work obsessively at things I am most interested in, so if I am interested in your company's product, you can count on me for great ROI. I have worked +5 years in research labs over both of my degrees, won engineering competitions and am developing a new file standard.

In academia I have developed several technologies I am planning to one day base a start-up from, that extend from music education/audio production software, through real-time gestural interaction environments, to 3D audio for virtual reality libraries, but I prefer to bootstrap these in my spare time while working full-time for a company whose product I firmly believe in. I am looking for any position that can combine my domain and programming experience.

Contact: andreas+hnjobs@featureenvy.com

Currently in the process of getting a Master's Degree in Biomedical Engineering (mostly doing image analysis, coming from a Bachelor's in Computer Science) and looking for a new challenge. Besides the two degrees I have worked for 2 years on web applications and web security development.

I don't like to retire and tell people who ask me that I spent my time making it possible for people to share more cat pictures. I would love to work on something a bit more meaningful. For example supporting scientists with visualization or replacing Excel files with a webapp. Considering my Biomedical Engineering background, biologist would be a perfect fit, but I would also accept mathematicians, physicists, and other scientists. As long as I can learn something new, preferably not just programming related.

Or of course you could offer me good working conditions, a mentor and some time/money for conferences and other educational things, that would work, too.

So if you are looking for someone who likes to push the boundaries, doesn't accept "acceptable" as a solution and loves to learn new things (not just programming related!) then you should drop me a line so we can talk.

At this point in my career, I consider myself a generalist. Most of the work I've done so far has been web-related, but I'm always eager for a chance to pick up new skills outside of a typical CRUD app. While I may not specialize in anything in particular, I can get up-to-speed with the problems I'm given and be productive very quickly. I love learning and understand that learning has to be balanced with shipping. Big data, search, and space are just a few of the things that interest me.

If you are solving hard problems that require some serious brainwork before diving in and are looking for a generalist, let's chat.

About me: Spent six years at a consulting firm owned by Microsoft, writing logistics and package-tracking software for two of the big three US mail-delivery services. Consulting means variety, and this broad experience plus passion for technology means I am a quick learner and quick to deliver value.

More recently, I worked two years at a burgeoning financial startup on a OAuth/REST API and their custom automated credit-underwriting engine, where I developed machine-learning techniques in addition to traditional expert-derived classification of risk. Not averse to UX/front-end work, but it's not my greatest strength.

[1] I'm currently located in Atlanta, but looking to move. My wife and I are very outdoorsy and are interested in destinations which might provide some city flavor with easy access to rock climbing, mountain biking, trail running, mountaineering, etc. Make me an offer I can't refuse! ; )

I'm a web developer with an interest in the ways technology can improve our education system, our food system, and pretty much any aspect of our daily lives.

My background is a little unorthodox: I come from an education background, and almost went to law school (I got a 99th percentile LSAT score), and ended up pursuing coding when I realized it was a great way of pairing my lifelong interest in computers and technology with my passion for problem solving challenges, not to mention a great way to build cool things with interesting people.

I'm looking for a position where I can work with a passionate team and contribute to a project that makes a difference. I'm a Rails guy with experience with Backbone.js on the front-end, but I'm also very interested by the possibilities of full-stack JavaScript development with Node.js.

Node.js, JavaScript, PHP developer. Based in Mumbai, India. Looking for a full time remote job

I'm currently working in one of the country's largest ecommerce setups. I have a lot of experience and insight in large scale problems: high load web apps, handling a large amount of data, syncing between different systems, API design, task queues and task distribution, designing and building scalable architecture and services.

I have a strong database background in mysql and mongodb, and I've also worked with postgresql. Redis is one of my favorite weapons and it always forms a vital part of my applications. Apart from the JavaScript and PHP, I have worked with Ruby Sinatra and python before. I'm currently working on a small Golang project and I find it very cool. I'd love to do more work in golang, given the chance. I'm not afraid to pick up the right tool for the job and learn on the go though. I've experimented with storm, zeromq, Statsd too.

I'd like a job where I can utilize my skills and work on something that excites me. Email me at munim2020@gmail.com if you have something interesting for me. Thanks for reading!

* Junior Engineer / Growth Hacker seeks interesting London Startup *

Location: London, UK / Relocation - Full Time

Stack: Ruby, Rails, Bootstrap, Heroku, LESS, AWS, Postgresql - (More than happy to learn new technologies)

Resume: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_HE0eSeECpDZyFQhVrxOWygo...

Contact: See Resume for email

I'm a young 'technical generalist', looking for an exciting opportunity to make a difference to a startup in London, whether that's in an engineering or growth role. I love to learn, whether that's exploring a new Gem, analysing and optimising a key metric, or wrangling some code from an idea into existence.

I have spent the last 6 months 'deep-diving' in Ruby on Rails, learning to work with APIs, write well organized test-driven code, use front end frameworks, and deploy on cloud services (Heroku, AWS.)

Concurrently, I have been building two project businesses - a traybake subscription service, and a press release service to connect startups with journalists.

Enabling awesome things to grow is what gets me out of bed in the morning.

Location: Kochi, India. Remote or temporarily on location but not considering relocation. Full time/ Part time/ On contract (Any format depending on my bandwidth as a freelance consultant).

Stack: System programming on Linux(mostly C programming for embedded environments), Linux kernel based operating systems like Debian/Ubuntu/RH/CentOS etc Android Embedded distros like OpenWRT Buildroot based, Linux networking and firewalling, scripting Bash/Perl/Python, Basically 10+ years of working with Linux systems.

contact: justin@josephjustin.com

I am more interested in working with small and medium entities and startup's and be part of their growth story, solve their technical problems and get their business rolling.

Tacoma, WA - Remote or Onsite(preferred) also a combination of telework, flex-schedule and commuting as far as Seattle, or a bit further, is fine.

Stack: PHP (Drupal, WordPress, and Laravel and Codeignitor experience, some Symfony), JavaScript, some Python. Prefer to move in either more of a front end position or Nodejs work.

Resume: http://daniel.gilfoy.us

Contact: dgilfoy@gmail.com

I really started out doing work with PHP (Java was my goal, but a PHP internship is what I landed, and later a PHP job though I tried to get an entry level Java job).

I started falling in love with JavaScript though, and front end development is something I have enjoyed doing. I've played around with some Nodejs in my off time and really like it, but I also enjoy Angular and Backbone and working with CSS and HTML a lot (I'm also one of those oddballs that enjoy the challenges of cross browser support), so wouldn't want to get constrained to a back end only position.

I'm probably still a Jr level developer (~5 years), maybe mid level, though I've never worked on anything that requires scale, so I'm going to go with Jr.

Full-stack web developer looking for a Chicago-based company. Currently freelancing but open to full-time if the right opportunity came along.

I love building web application and I love making them separated between frontend and backend (RESTFul servers). I already built some services in this way, like http://getinvoicy.com (demo@getinvoicy.com / demo) (It's in an early version), and the whole 2lead.in package (https://github.com/2leadin).

I'm at ease with Java and Python for the backend even though I did more than 10 years of PHP before and that I'm generally enthusiast to learn new languages if required :)

I've been working in technology for going on 17 years, primarily in system administration with coding, management and writing as needed. I've held senior positions in multiple 10,000+ internal user environments where I've successfully completed several infrastructure projects in the 1M+ range. I can and have done something of everything - implement virtualization infrastructure one month, mock up a mobile app the next and write-up an Executive overview contrasting various migration paths the next.

I’m looking to for a change from the comfortable, but heavily political, glacially slow pace of consulting in the public sector. Education and machine learning are of particular interest to me and I would consider volunteer work for the right organization.

This isn't a throwaway and I'm an open book so my post history on HN wouldn't a be a terrible indicator for how I might fit.

I am a completely autonomous full stack dev with roughly 10 years experience. I can build a product from the ground up, from design work to maintaining & setting up Unix servers. I have strong product sense & write agile and future proof code.

My latest app: https://nota.io (personal project). I am now looking for the next product that will get me passionate about.

I can be reached via that nota.io domain's email, my handle is manu.

PS: For the right opportunity of learning an interesting tech, I can take a few week off to get up to speed. I already know quite a few languages as a hobby so chances are that I won’t have to start from scratch.

San Francisco, Remote/Relocation, Full time/contract

Contact: pamepros@gmail.com

Overview: I'm from Argentina, but currently in San Francisco looking for a full time position. I started programming frontend web while in university 10 years ago, before moving to more complex PHP backend systems for a company that built web applications for enterprise businesses.

I moved into mobile about 4 years ago and for the last year and a half, I've been working on my own startup. Our first product is Kuesty, a Yelp-like mobile app for restaurants ratings in my hometown of Rosario, Argentina. This has allowed me to choose the projects I work on and to lead a small team of 2 engineers. While I've enjoyed working on this and have learned a ton, I believe I have more to learn and want to be part of team with a bigger vision.
