In the hopes of making this thread more than just an over-glorified classifieds, I would encourage everyone to leave one of the following comments either here (for everyone), or on the individual posts:
1. If you are looking for a freelancer, list the three most important needs you are looking to solve with a freelancer. I think we can all get so caught up in listing everything we think we need, that we forget the few things that are actually important to get the job done. Once we take a hard look at what we need, and match it up with #2, I think we can go along way to meeting expectations on both sides.
2. If you are a freelancer, list the three areas you are strongest. Are you amazing with game mechanics? Do you have a track record of successful social media campaigns? If all we list is our technical abilities, then HN who's hiring just becomes another place for outsourced development. Lets be better than that, and show our domain expertise.
We're looking for a software engineer that loves big data and distributed systems - you know who you are!
AppMonsta collects massive amounts of data about mobile apps and turns it into actionable metrics for a wide variety of business customers ranging from investors to health care companies to startups. We really love data, building distributed systems, and helping people understand complicated market dynamics through our data.
We're looking for a distributed systems/big data guru to join our distributed team. You'll take ownership of our crawl & data pipeline, keeping them running with high uptime, scaling them up to handle load, and adding new data sources and new features to help our customers make even better decisions. This shouldn't be your first time to the distributed systems/big data rodeo - we're looking for a senior engineer that likes mentoring junior engineers and is interested in growing into a tech lead role.
Our current tech stack is mostly python, linux, aws (ec2, s3, & emr mostly), mongodb, and redis. If you haven't worked with individual pieces of this before it's fine - we like working with smart people that are comfortable working in a distributed systems/big data/cloud environment. We're happy to help you get up to speed with anything you haven't seen before. We practice peer code review and continuous deployment on all our code and systems.
Our entire team works remotely. We're very flexible about where and when you work, as long as you ship code, keep systems online, and are reachable by other team members for part of the day. We stay in touch via a team chatroom and weekly team video chats, with impromptu 1-on-1 video chats whenever there's a detailed issue to discuss. To make this work, you'll need to be in a compatible timezone (between PDT(UTC-08) and CET(UTC+1)), and be very fluent writing and speaking english. Like getting out of the house to work? Ask about our mobile internet subsidy:)
This is a full time, longterm opportunity. If this sounds exciting, email me your resume and a couple hundred lines of some code you've written (preferably python), so we can get a sense for your coding style to scotty@appmonsta.com

I have been shipping software for more than 10 years now, and love building high-quality products (or at least try my best for it!). I started freelancing a few months ago after my stint as a single founder. One of my first clients was a HN member for whom I did remote contract work for almost a couple of months.
I am proficient with Ruby on Rails and generally quite adept at picking up new technologies as per the needs of the product. I call myself a generalist, and if you are a non-technical person, I can handle most of the things for you that go in to building & launching a software product (including screen flows, server-side programming, system administration, analytics & a little bit of digital marketing.)
To give an example of me trying out new things, my current gig is related to conversion optimization(s) and driving growth for a startup in the education domain. I am up for any work that is challenging & stimulating.
I am open to a potential co-founder role as well, but as you know well, a lot of things need to fall in place for it. I guess it would be best if we work together on a short project first to see how good we are as a team.
Please see my profile for the contact & other relevant information. Just drop a line to say hello, it's always good to interact with fellow HN members!
SEEKING FREELANCER looking for a "data reporter", Burlingame, CA and/or remote
About Us
We think that OkTrends (http://blog.okcupid.com/) is one of the best blogs for compiling research on real-life usage patterns in an interesting, visual, way, and we want to re-create it for car-buying.
We also think that people should be able to buy a car using the internet for as much of the transaction as possible. Our mission at CarWoo!(YC S09) is to become "THE Transactional Car Buying and Selling Marketplace." We are getting closer to our goal all the time, and have now seen many thousands of transactions come through the site. We're sitting on piles and piles of data, and we need to get it out in a more broad way.
To fulfill our mission, we have to get the word out about who we are. That's where you come in.
About You
You should be curious about patterns in data, have a background in research or other relevant experience, and have a knack for writing in a way that is relatable to ordinary folks, yet packed with insight and deep understanding.
More Details
We've got lots of ideas on posts, you'll be free to add your ideas to the pot also. As far as the actual content of the posts, think lots of charts, statistical analysis of our data, and a story around everything from who our visitors are, to what times of the year people do their car-buying, to trending & popular cars, etc.
If you're interested, email me at adamc@carwoo.com
This would be an ongoing project, with a steady stream of work.
SEEKING WORK - Philadelphia, PA / Remote (Willing to relocate)
Looking for junior level Rails work, but I am also interested in anything which I can get my hands on. I presently live in Philadelphia and would place priority on working here, but I am also willing to relocate (depending upon location) and/or work remotely. I am self-taught and extremely receptive to learning new technologies. Where I lack knowledge, I gain the drive to absorb and surround myself with anything I can.
A primary project I am working on right now called "define.io" is linked below. It is a fairly simple, yet (hopefully!) effective way of allowing users to review tech products. It is in a very early state, but does have some basic functionality. All of the site's code is posted on Github (also linked below), and it is hosted using Heroku.
I primarily work with: Ruby/Rails, JavaScript/jQuery, HTML/CSS (Bootstrap), Heroku
I'm interested in learning/working more with: Go, Haskell, Objective-C, Redis/NoSQL.
Also open to working with: Python/Django
Identifying the essence of a problem. Drawing on existing research and theory to produce simple, practical solutions. Explaining the solution clearly and simply. By way of example:
I've spent the last few months at the NYC Hacker School, adapting research from the BOOM and STEPS projects to build tools for rapidly prototyping distributed algorithms ( http://scattered-thoughts.net/blog/2012/12/02/hacker-school/ ). I would be especially interested in putting these ideas in practice.
SEEKING FREELANCER - Based in Minneapolis, Remote OK for the right candidate
Our startup is looking for a front-end engineer or designer to join our team on a contract basis (for now). The right candidate will need to possess demonstrable experience writing:
* HTML
* CSS (Sass)
* JavaScript (jQuery, CoffeeScript)
Bonus points for experience working in a Rails environment. Design skills aren't required, but illustration skills (icons, logos) will be a plus.
I'm Vitorio, a skilled user experience and interaction designer in Austin, TX, specializing in web, mobile, and emerging technologies.
If you think your current site and onboarding flow and app design is okay and just want someone to make it prettier, make the logo pop, etc., that's not me.
If you want more users to sign up, users to stick around longer, users to pay more, heck, users to pay at all, that's me.
If you don't have a site or app yet and want to know what you need to know to make sure you don't have these common "let's just build it we'll figure it out later" teething problems, to have your app designed well from day 1, that's really me. I love those kinds of engagements the most. You'd be my favorite.
Ideally, we'll do a little research together to figure out exactly what you need, and then we'd do a bunch of design together. But, every project is unique; contact me and let's talk: http://vitor.io/
Not sure what you need? Never hired a designer? Just want to have a structured conversation by the half-hour or hour? Consider signing up for UX office hours instead, there's no obligation:http://uxhours.com/
Will also barter UX for art or development; iOS, front-end, Python, Node, or AWS (via Python or Node) are all of interest.
SEEKING WORK - Remote with up to 50% travel (I'm based in Europe, but can work EST working hours).
I am a full web stack engineer with 12 years professional experience. I recently worked as CTO & Product Director at a small startup. Previously, I worked as Lead Software Developer at a mid-size company (sold for 9 digits at that time). I am happy with similar position as my last one or with 100% hands-on technical role as senior software developer.
I have lot of experience with various projects. I worked on web applications, enterprise intranet software, social websites, and so on. I am great in both solving little but tough problems and designing and implementing architectures using physical and cloud based servers, SQL and NoSQL databases, integrating various APIs, architecting applications to work under significant load and ensuring following patterns and best practices. My only drawback is that most of my backend experience is in PHP which is not that popular among HNers these days. But I learn quick and I'm always hungry for new experiences and knowledge. I have lot of experience in leading and coaching small teams, including remote/distributed teams, and leading projects.
In the last three years I started working on UX and interfaces, designing products, not only developing them. If you don't have resources for dedicated UX/UI person, I'm your go-to guy and can connect graphics designers with developers to build a great product.
I'm seeking remote or partly remote freelance or permanent work between 4h/wk and full-time. For full-time, I'm happy to travel worldwide as long as I spend at least 50% time at home.
SEEKING WORK -- Delhi, India (Remote work preferred; I am also willing to travel)
I'm a software developer and operations guy. I love taking on interesting and challenging projects where there's a lot of figuring out to do and an elegant system to be built. I have more than eleven years of paid work experience; I have been hacking and programming for much longer than that.
The five most recent languages I used are .NET/C#, XSLT, JavaScript/node.js, Windows PowerShell, and shell script, with a side of HTML5 and CSS.
WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU
Pretty much anything, but here’s what I absolutely love doing:
1. Setting up servers. I love building servers on AWS and Azure, and more generally, setting up an infrastructure for app deployment/website hosting, like on Google App Engine, Heroku, or static sites on S3. I love building out the automated scripts and processes that take your code, build it, and deploy it to one of these.
2. Packaging software. I love writing Windows installers for all sorts of software, and even more so, developing tools and build scripts that actually generate installers.
3. Automating stuff. I love writing scripts and software to automate anything and everything, from simple Microsoft Word document processing, to more complex Node.js scripts to send out hundreds of email messages per second via Amazon SES.
CONTACT ME
You can contact me via email: nik@niksci.com or Skype: ndabas.
On a side note, I like using Elance as a project management and escrow platform, and you can check out my Elance profile (work history + client reviews) at http://niksci.elance.com/. On Elance, I am usually ranked among the top 1000 contractors, out of a total of nearly 150,000.

Looking for JS/CSS/HTML UI developer / force multiplier. Mobile/Touch experience important. On-site preferable (you will be paid more than enough to live nearby) and a more permanent offer will be made if we work well together.
If you are interested, my email is in my profile. Please send a cool demo of something you have worked on / are currently working on.
Hi, I'm Amir. I'm a backend developer who specializes in node.js apps and building APIs. I'm also available for API-related Objective-C work for iOS and OS X. A list of my recent projects can be found at http://amirmalik.net
My tech stack includes tools like Redis, MongoDB, CouchDB (Cloudant), PostgreSQL, and ElasticSearch.
If you're starting something new, I'll work with you and your team to determine the required tools to build your app in the desired timeframe. Have an existing project? I'll dive in with a third-party perspective and help you refine and extend what you have.
I'm available 2-3 days a week. I can do either daily rate billing or fixed bid projects, no hourly please. If interested, please email me. If you're local, let's grab coffee. Thanks!
SEEKING WORK - based in London, though working remotely
We are a small web development team mainly focused on Ruby/Rails, along with expertise across the rest of the stack - CoffeeScript, Spine.js, SASS, LESS, Chef, PostgreSQL, Redis etc. We have domain expertise integrating with external APIs such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter, and also in handling high load both in terms of web traffic and background processing with Sidekiq or Resque.
We are a whole team who work well together. We can either integrate to your existing dev team or take and implement a standalone project. As many of us are overseas (China, Ireland) we are less expensive than many other development companies (£400 - £500 / day or potentially £55k / year per developer depending on project length, size of team etc).
I personally am based in London and have 12 years professional development experience. If you would like details on projects we have done as a team, just send me a quick email.

I started off in web development, doing mid-large size lead generation web sites. As a big part of dealing with lead generation, I became proficient in RESTful API integration and development, along with complex javascript web applications used for analytics. I then began working on iPhone and iPad applications over the years, working on apps for Cie Studios and their perspective clients.

Hadi Asiaie, from Iran, Tehran. Seeking remote work.Interested in python and Java works.Very interested in hard and algorithmic projects! this is my profile in Freelancer.com:
http://www.freelancer.com/u/HadiAsiaie.html
I'll build you an app that will literally figuratively blow your pants clean off. Also, I'll do it from $2000.
Reasons:
I've done a few of these now but the majority are in-house apps and as such I have little to show. I need to build up a bit of a portfolio that folks can actually see.
Also, due to personal circumstances, my hours are all over the place so I'm not Johnny Officehours.
I also have many, many years of web app dev and design experience. Happy to go into more detail via e-message and discuss all the bits & pieces.
Why don't you put a couple of apps up on the app store?I don't see how anyone can hand you $1000 up front when there is no proof that you can actually do the job.
SEEKING WORK - remote, or on-site within the Netherlands
I am an experienced professional dev with 10+ years of experience shipping software in a variety of sectors, including web apps small and enterprise-large, triple A game titles and Unity games to CDN's and desktop software.

My portfolio site & resume: http://www.dave78.com - or get in touch via davedx@gmail.com.
French technologist and marketing guy based in South East Asia (Manila, Philippines). I have been CTO/co-founder of a few startups and agencies, based on technologies such as Rails, PHP and Erlang. Love to implement awesome front ends (Coffeescript / Websockets etc...) and scalable backends.
I've also worked with many startups and big agencies on marketing and UX issues.
Do you need a data scientist that can also do the data pushups and communicate the results? I have ~8yr experience in R, PhD in machine learning, and 2 startups under my belt.
Problems I solve:
Why are customers canceling their memberships?
How are users moving through the site?
What is the maximum I should pay to acquire customers?
--

We're a team of three highly skilled technologists specializing in solving an organization's most difficult problems. We like to work closely with companies as hands-on members of the team to design technical solutions, implement and deploy maintainable systems, and meet business needs to deliver a compelling ROI.
While we are certainly capable of implementing spec sheets, we typically are not black box coders for hire -- our value is working with you to design "what to build" as much as actually building it.
- Web app development: Python, Ruby, PHP, Java (backend) and HTML/CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, ExtJS / Sencha (frontend)
- Mobile development: iOS and Android
- Server/infrastructure: Apache / nginx, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL, open source (no Microsoft)
- Well-versed in every framework under the sun: Django, Rails, Sinatra, WordPress, 3rd Party APIs, et cetera

We're based in San Francisco and can do on-site visits as well as remote.
[1] www.select-a-spot.com/bart/ -- BART's online parking reservation system (we wrote it from scratch in Django)
[2] www.claveo.com -- Mobile and transaction and data security with a high-availability, scalable web service and strong cryptographic mobile clients (we were co-founders)
[3] www.getcocoon.com -- In-browser malware and anti-virus protection (we re-wrote the ad delivery platform, built part of the web interface, server back end, and front-end clients)

http://feetlot.com - Summer 2012, scratching my own itch. To build the shoes database I used several APIs and wrote parsers when there were no APIs.
http://nabbber.com - 2010, 4000 users, 18k words added, Zend Framework (I moved to Rails shortly afterwards). Three 'b's? But dribbble was hot back then!
I go through Rails/Ember commits on Github to see what's new before it is announced.
I'm not afraid to say "I don't know."
I prefer the back-end but at the same time I experiment with CSS stuff like vertical rhythm or using single-direction margins. In other words, I'm universal and strive for the best practices in every technology I use.
I almost never use jQuery now because Ember and Backbone, that's why. I know when to use Ember and when to use Backbone. Lots of people don't.
Apart from being good at the technical side, I'm also good at seeing the whole picture. I will help you build a better product. I will scrutinize your ideas and suggest new ones. I will add value to your product.
Get in touch even if you don't have a cool project for me to work on, I love meeting new people.

1. If you are looking for a freelancer, list the three most important needs you are looking to solve with a freelancer. I think we can all get so caught up in listing everything we think we need, that we forget the few things that are actually important to get the job done. Once we take a hard look at what we need, and match it up with #2, I think we can go along way to meeting expectations on both sides.
2. If you are a freelancer, list the three areas you are strongest. Are you amazing with game mechanics? Do you have a track record of successful social media campaigns? If all we list is our technical abilities, then HN who's hiring just becomes another place for outsourced development. Lets be better than that, and show our domain expertise.
