Please lead with either SEEKING WORK or SEEKING FREELANCER, your location, and whether remote work is a possibility.

Python Backend Role

Hi there, I’m looking to join a small startup where I can focus on backend development, implementing new features, and optimizing existing code and workflows. I have experience building scalable systems, working with data processing, and full-text search. If your team is tackling performance bottlenecks, database optimization, or any Python-related challenges, I’d love to help.

I work within EU / USA timezones.

While I specialize in Python, I can adapt to other programming languages, though it may take some time to get familiar with your existing codebase and workflow compared to Python rn.

SEEKING WORK | SF Bay Area, CA | Remote OK

Front-End, Databases & Tools: Vue, Postgres, HBase, MongoDB, Kafka, Jenkins, AWS, Docker

CV: Available Upon Request

Email: poetic.artifice@gmail.com

I am a seasoned (>10 years experience) full-stack principal software engineer and software manager specializing in the backend, platform engineering, internal tools, and data engineering. In addition to strong programming and architectural skills, I'm a force multiplier for any team through the three T's -- teaching, talking, and tooling.

In the past, I've managed teams of up to 12 engineers and pioneered a number of no- and low-code solutions for stream processing, data model and query generation, form building, workflow systems, and front-end construction for a variety of industries, including those with strong regulatory requirements and complex business rules such as healthcare and fintech.

More recently, I've built a no-code form-filler and a workflow engine for coordinating LLMs and other generative AI processes, and on top of this a platform for both minimizing hallucinations and working with documents that are far too large for existing context window outputs using a novel, patent-pending process.

I am also an improvisational pianist and distinguished poet.

I have extensive experience working for and running both startups and software consulting shops, which gives me a unique insight into speaking with customers, translating between engineering and other organizational departments, gathering requirements, and aligning stake-holders across departments. If any of the above seems like a match for you and your organization or project, don't hesitate to reach out.

SEEKING WORK - Data scientist, remote worldwide, email in profile.

I'm a data scientist, things have been rough during the recession but are starting to firm up now. I'm looking for hard problems to solve. I'm not interested in cube-farm DS, but hair on fire "This is causing lemon-law recalls and we can't solve it."[1] type problems.

I love avant garde problems, and have a pretty unique toolset (LLMs+KB, OR+ML, etc). I've worked with names you know in automotive, tech, and other spaces.

I've worked on projects including current en vogue large language models, knowledge extraction, automotive part failure prediction, translation, maintenance optimization, automated sports highlights, and more. I've also done some more interesting work including vehicle route planning in constrained environments.

Get in touch. Even if you're unsure, get in touch. Referals welcome. Email in profile.

[1] Yup. Done that. A few times.
