Full-stack engineer, 15+ years. Currently wrapping up a contract at Xero building the external API gateway for their financial analytics platform. Before that I built and shipped ReframeHQ solo, an AI product-photo app for Shopify merchants, still live. Modal GPU inference pipeline, background workers, automatic credit refunds on failed jobs, zero-downtime deploys on Dokku. One person running a GPU pipeline in production.
I write detailed, honest build logs of my AI/systems experiments, measured results, not hype (e.g. building a recommender in pure Postgres and watching the embeddings lose to ORDER BY count(*)): https://www.pedroalonso.net

Senior backend engineer available for contract, fractional, contract-to-hire, or full-time opportunities. I have 30+ years of experience building and operating production systems across startups, SaaS, media, financial services, telecom, and public safety domains. I've worked in both early-stage and growth-stage companies and enjoy owning systems end-to-end, from architecture and implementation through deployment and operations. For the past 13 years I've focused primarily on Ruby on Rails backend platforms, APIs, PostgreSQL, cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP), and production reliability. My experience includes backend architecture, distributed systems, database performance tuning, cloud migrations, DevOps ownership, and operating customer-facing systems in production. I enjoy helping teams solve scaling, reliability, modernization, and operational challenges. Particularly interested in backend, platform, infrastructure, and data-intensive systems, though I'm comfortable contributing across the stack when needed. Available to help with Rails modernization, production reliability, cloud migrations, PostgreSQL performance tuning, backend platform development, and API-heavy applications.

Technologies: Rust, Python, Go · LLM/agent systems, multi-agent orchestration, LLM eval · browser automation + anti-detection (CDP) · data pipelines · dev tooling
Senior engineer & founder, 12+ years. Last ~2 years deep on Rust + LLM agents:
- Built a Rust CDP / browser-automation driver from scratch (anti-detection, agentic pipelines).
- Multi-agent orchestration + an LLM judge/eval layer - claim-level extraction and verification against ground truth — for my own AI SaaS.
- Built AI harness orchestrating different agents in their own native harnesses (agent-to-agent comms, clean room reviews, sandboxing)
- Wrote an architectural linter enforcing pure/effectful separation in large Rust codebases.
Before founding: Software Engineering Team Lead on high-throughput messaging infrastructure. Earlier: national-scale public data platforms (company registry, procurement monitoring, government transparency).
Strongest at taking an ambiguous problem to a shipped system solo, hard systems work in Rust, and LLM evaluation/verification/orchestration. Most interested in agent infrastructure, dev tooling, LLM eval, and automation.
Open to: senior/staff IC or founding-engineer roles, or focused Rust/AI contract work.

Technologies: Full stack web dev for 15+ years in many forms, and many years of project and product management work, which is more what I'm looking for now. In recent years I've been focused on game development projects using Babylon/WebGL and working with C++ & Go server-side (MMO servers).
I have some cool projects! See my personal site for email and some of those projects:
https://brynnbateman.com/
My most popular project is https://www.idlequest.net/, which is an idle-game web-based version of classic EverQuest, complete with its original 3D graphics. It's basically the entire original EverQuest client recreated to run in a browser, but also has the option to play itself. Also made a new, custom MMO server in Go for it.
Looking mostly project/product management style work. I spent 10+ hours a day working on my own coding projects, which I'm proud of and think are really cool, but I think I'm a little too removed from the nitty gritty coding details these days to be a good IC candidate for a lot of places.
Open to contracting or full-time.

Senior data wrangler / “full-stack” data generalist with 10+ years of experience across analytics, data engineering, data platforms, data science, MLOps, applied AI, product, and business-facing data work.
I work best close to the action, going from vague operational problems to working tools. I’m comfortable talking to stakeholders, shaping the data/product solution, building the first version, and making it reliable enough for others to use. I like hands-on work: modeling data, writing code, building pipelines, training models when useful, creating dashboards and web apps, designing infrastructure, deploying tools, and iterating with users. I care about practical data work: making messy inputs understandable, building useful internal tools that improve business operations, avoiding overengineering, and choosing the simplest stack that gets the job done.
Past work includes:
- Leading analytics and optimization projects for operations-heavy businesses.
- Developing Python/SQL data pipelines, data models, data quality checks, Airflow workflows, and reliable reporting/analytics layers.
- Building dashboards, data apps, and client-facing reports with Superset, Tableau, Dash, Streamlit, Panel, and similar tools.
- Training and deploying ML models for forecasting, pricing, segmentation, churn, classification, entity extraction, and related use cases.
- Building AI/LLM prototypes for workflow automation and decision support.
- Running cloud data platforms with Kubernetes, Terraform, GCP, and AWS.
Looking for a small or scaling team that needs a senior hands-on data generalist: someone willing to work close to users, understand the business, build the data systems, and help turn rough ideas into useful tools.

Generalist programmer and technical lead, 20+ years across games and software in C#/.NET, Unity, and C++. I've worn a lot of hats — lead, development manager, senior — across both systems and gameplay. Currently a systems engineer on a top-down action-RPG with solo and co-op PvE/PvPvE. Previously led the gameplay programming team on the MMORPG Ember Sword (C++, ECS/EnTT), built deterministic network rollback and other core systems at BetaDwarf (Unity DOTS/ECS), and did UI programming on Gwent at CD PROJEKT RED. I've also done UI work with MVVM (NoesisGUI and WPF-style stacks).
I'm comfortable owning systems end to end — netcode, rollback & lag compensation, creature AI, crafting/looting, movement/interaction, procedural generation, profiling/perf, and MVVM-based UI — and equally at home leading: Agile/Scrum, code review, technical hiring, and release management. On the side I build a variety of projects using Claude Code targeting PC and Steam Deck: a space game inspired by EVE Online, a co-op dungeon heist game, team-management tools, among others.
I'm open to having a conversation about senior, staff, principal or lead roles, desktop/console-first, in Unity + C# or C++ with a custom engine. Open to a C#/custom-engine setup as well.
I can be flexible on time zones. No interest in relocating long-term, but I'd be happy to visit your team in person for a few days to break the ice.
My specialist skills:
- The Rust language, which has been my daily driver for more than a decade.
- Multimedia (video, audio, 2D rendering...)
- Performance optimisation (SIMD, GPGPU, parallel programming...)
Fields in which I'm highly experienced, but below specialist level:
- Web development, with a frontend bias (TypeScript, React, WebGL, WebAssembly...)
- Native development, especially low-level Win32.
- Communication and technical writing, both learned in a previous career.
I also have a modest level of experience in computer vision, greenfield R&D, game engine development, programming language development, and data compression. I can offer a 50% discount for any contract which seems highly educational; my current areas of interest include DSP, embedded programming, robotics, functional languages, Swift, and React Native.
Thanks for reading, and I look forward to hearing from you :-)
I have 12+ years of experience as a full stack developer building web and mobile applications across Europe. I have an extensive startup and agency background, which taught me how to integrate effectively with diverse teams and adapt to fast-moving environments.
I value software architecture design. I have deep expertise in the JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystems and I often explore other languages and environments out of curiosity or when a project needs it. I'm also actively exploring applied AI, from building with LLM agents to tinkering with local models – particularly the smaller ones –. I like to bring a strong eye for clean, minimalist UI design to the products I work on.

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.
My most recent project is an idle/incremental game I’m building with Claude to try out 3D graphics in JS and to have an opinion on AI coding. You can try it here: https://chriskingwebdev.gitlab.io/shard-game/

Senior Ruby on Rails developer, 11+ years across fintech, SaaS, e-commerce, and startups. Open to full-time remote or contract. What I'm best at: Performance work on existing codebases. Once optimized a set of Rails API endpoints from 90-120s down to 1-2s — measuring first, raw SQL where ActiveRecord produced bad queries, indexing, restructuring background jobs. External API integrations (5+ over my career: Google Maps, Chargebee, WhatsApp via 360dialog, SDB Groep, AFAS). Comfortable with the messy parts — retries, idempotency, webhook ordering, partial failures. Working with legacy and tests-nobody-touches. Reading before writing, refactoring without breaking things. As Tech Lead at clevergig (Dutch SaaS) for 3 years, I set up code review, bug tracking, and ownership processes for a long-lived codebase.
Recent stops: FastCTO (fintech), Rail Europe, Fitjourney.ai, Kagi (Crystal backend), clevergig (Tech Lead).
For fun: building a Rails app + ESP32 device that tracks power outages at my home — the device pings the API every minute, the Rails side aggregates into hours-with-power vs. without. Started during the post-2022 outages in Kyiv and kept evolving — a good way to keep Rails fresh and combine backend with a bit of hardware.

- Nabu: a low-code enterprise integration and web application platform with 10+ years of production use
- Glue: a custom scripting language used for automation, orchestration, and test execution at scale
- Neatify: a polyglot formatter in Rust using Tree-sitter and Rhai
- Polymr and MCP tooling: LLM agent infrastructure focused on control, orchestration, and deep tool integration
I am looking for a long-term Staff/Principal IC role focused on platform architecture, developer experience, custom tooling, orchestration systems, or applied AI infrastructure.

Hello! I'm Rachel, a Full-Stack Software Engineer with multiple years of experience in JavaScript, TypeScript, Ruby, and Python. I recently co-created Pendulum (https://www.pendulum-baas.dev/), a reactive Backend-as-a-Service for web applications. I also recently did freelance work incorporating AI agents into Intelliflo Office for a wealth management firm, and am looking for my next permanent role.
MSc Quantitative Economics.
Background:
• 10+ years building and owning backend, data and reporting systems across ERP, BI, integrations
• Responsible for reliability and audit integrity of business critical systems in multinational operations
• Led technical delivery teams across engineering, finance, IT
• End-to-end delivery in independent product/founder environments
• Recently built and deployed a RAG platform (Python, FastAPI, React, Qdrant), including retrieval, evaluation, and operational tooling.
Primarily interested in short to mid-term contract or project based work. Open to longer term collaboration where there is mutual fit.

Most AI agents in production are black boxes. When one fails, nobody can tell you why. I build the tooling that fixes that.
Tracea (tracea.dev): open-source observability for AI agents. Traces every LLM call by patching the HTTP transport layer, so there are no SDK wrappers, no framework lock-in, no code changes. Install and you see everything.
ObservAgent: local-first observability dashboard for Claude Code sessions. 1000+ active users, open source.
Before this: shipped a civic complaint platform to 50k+ users for a municipal government.
Looking for SWE engineer or AI engineer roles at startups building real production AI. High ownership, real users, hard problems.
I believe in using the right tool for each task. Strong infrastructure background (AWS, cloud-native, distributed systems). US C-Corp for contracting.
I've attempted to bootstrap products myself so I understand what it takes beyond writing code. I take full ownership end to end, I don't wait to be told what needs solving.
Immediate availability because my whole team was laid off recently, I'm used to work on US timezones. Open to senior IC or tech lead roles.

For one year I reverse-engineered the major education platforms — Google Docs, Microsoft Office, Nearpod, Kahoot, ect. — so that AI agents can drive them on a teacher's behalf and automate classroom workflows. The work runs in over 10,000 classrooms today.
Building agents against production code you don't control is harder than it sounds. The code is mangled, so first you have to understand how the app was built and then take it apart from the outside. It's reverse engineering, but it depends on knowing how to build the thing in the first place.
The role came with monthly compliance and security training centered on FERPA, so I'm fluent in handling student data responsibly. That's not new ground for me. I spent five years building on Drupal, which the most prestigious learning institutions still run today, and version control and access control were the hard part of every project. Student data is the same problem.
I've been building browser agents and browser automation since 2018, well before it was a category. That's paired with 13 years of building dynamic, data-heavy UIs for web and mobile.
I've also built admin dashboards for a custom legal document management system. And a CRM for email marketing, with a drag-and-drop interface for designing and branding email templates for social campaigns. I've taken several companies from 0 to 1, as a consultant and as a full-time employee, across fintech, streaming, real estate, education, marketing, and media. I've worked at a 130-person AI company and on a 7-person team where I wore every hat. I do my best work on small, fast-moving teams.

PHP/JS/TS Development, Extremely competitive rates available.
I build new projects and revitalize legacy code. I work mostly with Laravel and React/Inertia or Livewire.
I integrate modern tools pragmatically, adding real-time features via Websockets (Laravel Reverb etc) and AI capabilities like RAG for context-aware search and content generation.

I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. It was time to move on and so I relocated 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 yours.
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 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!

As an agentic engineer I know how to use AI tools intelligently and prevent failures with well-written specs and guardrails. I know where they fail and why they often makes the same mistakes junior developers make. I see this anytime I get called in to fix what AI-first teams built too fast.
A few things I've done:

- Software engineer with 6+ years of experience working with production systems, debugging critical workflows, improving system reliability and supporting user-facing applications.
- Have been extending my skillset with modern frontend stack and “.Resolve” (https://resolve.madkum.com/), an internal SaaS ticketing dashboard prototype built from scratch. It features live state management and caching via TanStack Query, a backend powered by Supabase, and custom role-based access control workflows for users and support agents. While I kept the UI clean, I prioritized engineering the entire end-to-end workflow and business logic.
Looking for Frontend or Product Engineer with Frontend focused roles at present but not limiting to. Willing to pick up new stacks based on the project requirements with generalist mindset.

Hi, I'm Madison Rickert, a senior software engineer who has been shipping code to production for over 20 years. Experienced engineering leader, presently all-in on agentic engineering, shipping code daily and finding new ways to push the envelope on its capabilities.
I'm an active contributor to several open-source MCP servers, build agent-first CLI tools, solve computer vision problems, and maintain a growing library of agent skills and agent harnesses I rely on daily. For the past five-plus years I've been a partner and the in-house technical force at a creative studio. Before that, I was a senior IC and fractional engineering lead for a variety of startups and nonprofits, working across the full stack and mentoring teams of up to 5. I have a penchant for both business and personal finance. Across my businesses and clients, I've been responsible for managing organizational finances and countless projects with typical budgets in the 5 to 6 figure range. Over the years this led me into financial automation, and I have several open-source projects in my portfolio in areas around agentic financial automation and investment management. I'm also a working musician, and a hyper-organized Burning Man camp lead, best known around the Northern California festival scene for my saxophone performances for crowds up to 3,000 people.
I'm pivoting back to senior IC engineering after a long stretch as partner-operator. I'm excited to keep expanding the capabilities of AI, and my creative-tech and financial background will be a real asset to the right organization. If you're building software for creative work, media systems, music tech, financial tools, or AI tooling, I'd love to hear about it.

Summary: I'm a product designer with 6+ years of product experience that can do some coding (even more with Claude/ Codex with my opinionated agentic engineering setup). Ideally looking for a jr. design engineer role so I can transition to design engineering/ software engineering. I've worked in the consumer app space for the last 4 years and have designed more onboardings and paywalls than anyone on Earth at the intersection of growth and design.
I've worked with many large apps on monetization, growth, and product challenges and have designed consumer apps that reached 600K/mo in revenue. I've also designed Bitcoin ATM UIs, dashboards, editor experiences, and marketing websites for brands and influencers.
Senior software developer with 8+ years building cross-platform mobile and web apps and cloud backends.
I am a dependable team member, able to contribute from day 1. I have experience in startups and large corporations. I love a good challenge, and I am always willing to tackle a new problem, from SDKs, GIS implementations, to smart home solutions. I set and meet high expectations.
Technology and security leader, first engineer to CTO and CISO over 8+ years at a healthcare ePRO startup. Built the platform from the first line of code to a secure, audited system serving ~100K users at 99.9% uptime. Led ISO 27001:2022 certification from scratch in 6 months with zero major nonconformities. Clean record: zero security incidents, 100% audit pass rate across HIPAA, GDPR, and FDA 21 CFR Part 11. Hired and led a 10-person eng team. Cut infra cost ~66% via an AWS to OCI migration.
Good fit if you need someone to stand up a security and compliance program, get audit-ready to unlock regulated or enterprise deals, or provide senior engineering leadership without a full-time hire.

PhD-trained engineer/manager (astronomy by training -- data is data). Currently Senior Data Science Manager at Hyundai Motor America's North American Safety Office, where I build large-scale vehicle telemetry pipelines, LLM-driven classification and RAG over enterprise data, and led department-wide LLM/AI adoption from technical workshops to production SDLC.
Previously managed a data science team at HeadSpin: built data science pipelines, killed error-prone spreadsheet workflows with proper APIs and dashboards, reimplemented the flagship data product to reduce costs, latency, and churn.
Looking for senior data / platform sorts of roles. Equally happy IC or manager -- I just want to ship. Open to full-time or fractional/contract; happy to even work on small projects you want to send my way to help get to know each other.
I build a lot on my own time, and the side projects are probably the best read on how I work:
- forohtoo -- Go service for awaiting Solana payments via SSE/NATS, with a clean `Await(memo, amount)` SDK. Writeup: https://brojonat.com/posts/forohtoo/ - IncentivizeThis (https://incentivizethis.com) -- bounty-based authentic ad platform using LLM-as-judge across Reddit, YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, HN, TripAdvisor. Writeup: https://brojonat.com/posts/incentivizethis/ - If I Go Missing (https://if-i-go-missing.com) -- dead-man's-switch service (Go + Temporal + Postgres + Twilio + Stripe). - IYBI ("If You Build It [They Will Come]", https://iybi-twc.com) -- websites for independent workers, managed entirely by email. Customer pays via Stripe, emails an AI agent (Claude + Cloudflare Email Worker + R2 + K8s CronJob), the agent researches them, builds the site, and handles ongoing updates. My own consulting site runs on it.
Mostly Go or Python services running on my personal k8s cluster. Happy to talk shop or small projects we could work on together to assess fit.
