nikkwong · 3 years ago
Location: Seattle Remote: yes

Willing to relocate: maybe

Technologies: JS, python, rust. Some ML and would be willing to pick up more before starting a new position and/or on the job. Probably not relevant but lots of experience in hardware development and production: CAD/Solidworks/DFM

Email: nikkwong0@gmail.com

Resume: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VijR1MF6xDNzH9IPrsv2UxLe...

Ex FAANG. Started www.beaver.digital (although these are really out of date now, last one was finished in 2016). Interested in the area where design and code intersect. More info at www.nikkwong.com. I'm a one man shop for creating attractive design oriented solutions to hard digital problems. Interested in small teams where I can work on technologies and skills beyond my current expertise.

Also had a Kickstarter project that I’ve turned into a business I’ve been running for 8 years now. I’m really interested in a founding role or at least a role where I have ownership and a lot of autonomy with interesting things to work on. I'm not so interested in being a staff software engineer unless the project is really cool--like working in the sciences, or for some social good, or something else cutting edge. Thanks for reading!

Hi there! I'm a self-taught programmer, I've been programming using the above technologies for over 7 years (though I'm primarily a C#/.NET developer).

I've developed various projects/tools over the past few years that are useful for me but I think others would find interest in as well, some of the projects I've built/worked on include:

- EditorEX, a mod for the hit VR game "Beat Saber" that enhances the newly added official 3D beatmap editor and adds some well-desired features.

- Reality, a Unreal Engine mod loader written in C# that works by hosting CLR and uses native delegates, etc.

- osu.Launcher, a program which runtime patches the rhythm game called "osu!" to let it run on unofficial servers.

You can check out all of these projects over on my GitHub, feel free to reach out over email if you're interested! :)

Location: Atlanta Ga, USA (planning on moving to another state though)

Remote: Required.

Willing to relocate: No.

Technologies: Modern C++, some Python, familiar with HTML/CSS/JavaScript but rusty, Qt

Résumé/CV: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iq7nkcfqjkinu2p/Iris%20Chase%20Res...

Email: iris (at)) ....... enesda puncutation com (good luck scraping that ;)

Self-taught, I've spent years trying to bootstrap software companies but I've exhausted my ramen money if you catch my drift.

My crowning project is called IVD (github.com/irischase/IVD) which is a GUI programming language and implementation; it's also: A bad way to try to make money from scratch. I really leveled up a ton in all aspects as an engineer from the project, but it's unfinished and in hiatus because after spending 3+ years on it I realized how much time doing anything interesting takes (especially alone) and that I need to pick my battles more wisely. I still want to get back to it someday though, but for now I'm seeking employment to get my ducks in a row. Other highlights are in my resume.

I'm fine with web tech, it just wasn't appropriate for the projects I got most of my experience on. Primarily interested in backend but projects that are front-end heavy also appeal to me. Feel free to reach out if you think I could be useful! :)

codeforafrica · 3 years ago
Contract or part-time

Location: Africa

Remote: yes

Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where i can get the necessary permission to live and work.

Technologies: Linux, Fullstack, System Administration.

Résumé/CV: on request (software development, CTO, mentoring, training, fluent in English and German)

Like a recent Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact I am looking for similar work. 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 looking to relocate to 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.

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'm at a transitionary period of my life, and I'm looking for a more purpose-driven role. I'm looking for a company that is solving hard problems that need to be solved. I'm not the one that necessarily wants to solve these hard problems, but I want to support the real problem solvers of our day and age. What kind of problems need to be solved? The following:

- Unifying quantum mechanics with general relativity

- World: poverty, hunger, peace

- Climate change

- Plastic pollution

- Advancing medicine

You might get the gist, maybe you can come up with a few that I haven't mentioned :-) I'm looking for a place where I can support the people that are able to solve them or solve part of it. For example, if Tesla would want to hire me then I'd work there (climate change). If Brilliant.org would hire me to make their physics education better, I'd work there (higher probability for unifying QM with GM). If some prosthetics lab would hire me to advance prosthetics, I'd work there. Hell, I'd even work for a trading/HFT firm as long as I know that 5% of the profits go to one of these goals. I'd even work for an oil firm, as long as I can help them create a business that allows to transition one away from it.

  Location: Amsterdam
  Remote: Highly preferable
  Willing to relocate: Yes
  Technologies: I can learn anything, I've done a lot. My best language is JavaScript, but I can also read x86-64 (especially with IDA Pro). 
  Secondary skills: pentesting, simple UI-design, brainstorming on business/revenue generating ideas and anything involving consumer psychology (I studied a psych. bachelor).
  Résumé/CV: Upon request via email (in short: 3 years of programming experience + 2 years of experience in teaching programming)
