-----I'm a software engineer (backend/data/infra) with a background in college level mathematics education and community service.
Intensely curious, with wide exposure to a variety of technologies, problem spaces, and programming paradigms.
Recent work includes relational database design and administration, data modeling, API design and integrations, documentation, and tooling/scripting/automation for a greenfield project at a startup.
I'm also a long-time juggler and occasionally perform for charity and holiday events.
Over the last year (12 months) I've gotten nearly 5000 github stars across a few repos, thousands of users, 10 or so open-source contributors, around 20 blog posts and projects on the front of HN (across eatonphil.com and multiprocess.io/blog), ~900 members on a hacker discord and 300 on a virtual hacker meetup. I talked to a bunch of VCs (including YCombinator) and saw similar products not further along get funded but ultimately couldn't nail it myself. So I'm headed back to full-time employment.
Either interested in engineering management at a late stage/public company or interested in flexible roles (more toward the cofounder spectrum or director of engineering) at earlier stage startups in the data and devtools space.

I've worked on 100s of successful projects for Rockwell, Northrop Grumman, Adobe, Motorola, the DTIC, UK-NCIS, and many others. I was the sole software developer one year for 50% of the U.S. Vote and did the initial draft of one of Adobe's printer protocols. I've worked on my own Linux distro for 25 years and have patched and built 1,000s of FOSS packages in the process.
In my most recent role, discussed in the PDF, I had a patch to Linux kernel 5.17 accepted. It was a minor patch but made it possible for the project to support vanilla kernels.
I'm looking for 1099 work. At the moment I have a preference towards junior roles and/or "fill in the gaps" tasks.
Some constructive feedback about your CV you might want to consider to get picked up faster (I read through a lot of resumes):
- change the order of your experience so it's reverse timeline; start with your more current experience and then go backwards in time instead of starting with the oldest experience first
- change the wording to be more concise, it takes a lot of time to read through because you include lots of details like it's a story in first-person (use the word 'I' a lot). Example:
Change to just a summary bullet point like: Otherwise, good luck!Remote: Yes

I'm Barrett Nelson. I'm a recent bootcamp graduate with a strong full-stack skillset looking for a paid internship or entry level software engineering role. Willing to work hard and learn quickly in my next position.
I want to go from a freelance dev/webmaster type of role, to a better-paid and more formal SWE career. Collaborating with and learning from a team of engineers, to build and deploy products at larger scales.
As a freelancer, I have adequate client-facing experience, communicating directly with clients for to better understand their problems, and discussing RFPs to meet goals. On the tech side of things, I've been very much been a "code only" person. Usually working independently (sometimes alone, sometimes in a small group of developers) with feature work and closing tickets with little regard to CD/CI. I will need on-boarding to learn modern, systematic approaches to software engineering using methods involving automation, testing, and cloud services. And understanding the team dynamics of a larger company.
Not interested in contract work or small startups. Remote work would not be a problem, having been accustomed to remote-only workflows since 2013.
