Location: Seattle Metro Area, WA

Remote: Yes. The last 5 years have been "remote only". I'm more productive WFH and will not consider having to buy a car I don't normally need and go back to wasting my time commuting.

Willing to relocate: Not unless you pay me 25MM upfront.

Technologies: I'm not limited by language, frameworks, or clouds, as I helped build several of them for current "bigtech" companies and can ramp up quickly due to my prior experience in contacting and consulting. My total experience spans over 25 years of in the trenches technology, while constantly being updated because its what I love. I used Java last at AMZN, C#/F#/Python/Rust/SQL at MSFT (and more recently with Ruby On Rails thrown in), with Go/Python for both a CLEC I gave MMS capability to as well as some more recent startups, if that helps. Most Current projects are in Rust, Go (Gin), Python (Django), C#, AWS (Lambda, etc)

Email: resume@dfk.mozmail.com - Yes this is me, its a relay and gets forwarded to an @duanefking.com email address I can reply from.

I only have experience leading engineering organizations with up to 200 engineers, so anything bigger would be new, but I'm up for it, and in that role they offered me the VP promotion I could not accept due to a relocation request that was part of the VP promotion, so I went back to MS and became a lead dev again working in the code when that ended. I have no problem working on smaller teams and honestly think my skills and experience are more valuable to them when I'm in the trenches with the rest of the team.
