The web is shiny. The stuff which keeps the web running is unglamorous plumbing. I'm a plumber. If you have some weird hardware which needs a driver, I can do that. If you're a company which has a big code depot and needs a better way to build it, I'll make a better build tool. You might have a greenhouse full of bar-coded experiments and need some way to track all of those data points. Yep, me again.
http://scanner.rachelbythebay.com/ - Software Defined Radio used to monitor an entire trunked system in parallel, with over 1 million calls logged and randomly accessible. Includes bonus "social layer" where people can tag interesting calls to make them easier for others to find quickly.
http://rachelbythebay.com/bb/ - C++ depot build tool. Why specify dependencies twice? #include should be all you need. Can you build a large project without writing rules in some build language (Makefile and friends)? I can. Can you add new files to your depot without having to go back to that build language to teach it about them? Yep, I can do that too.
http://fred.rachelbythebay.com/ - I got tired of Google Reader way back in 2011 and wrote a replacement which just works and stays out of my way. Now, when they pull the plug in July, I'll be ready.
https://rachelbythebay.com/edu/ - Streaming high-bitrate video just to be able to read someone's "screencast" is just painful. Text should be text. I use that philosophy to provide lessons for those looking to build things with C++.
I also slice through weird "it doesn't work" problems, sometimes for things I've never even seen before. Got some legacy system which doesn't want to play nice any more? Shoot me a message: https://rachelbythebay.com/contact/

Back-End
Django, Twisted, Flask, Ruby on Rails, Sinatra, ASP.NET MVC 3 (Yeah, we know, but it was a Fortune 500 company) , BackBone.js, Node.js, and Ember.js
Front-end
Bootstrap, Less.js, JQuery, Skeleton, Foundation, Cappuccino, Knockout, and Spine
Mobile Development
We have worked with iOS, Android, and Win Phone 8, developing 4 to 5 star applications that have 1 to 5 million downloads.
Examples
-> Re-designed a front-end as well as a back-end for a property management entity that has ~3 billion in assets.
-> Re-worked a ticket-reselling site that does $150MM in revenue in Rails (again front-end and back-end)
-> Developed an Android and iOS application that has ~4.5
stars and more than 5 million downloads combined for a start-up that had an idea but no technical staff at hand.
-> Developed an iOS Daily Deals app, again for someone who had an idea but no technical staff at hand. This app was acquired by a Chinese company for their locals for the low 8 figures.
If you have an idea, we usually can take it from storyboard to implementation for < 100k.
I'm looking for a talented, self-managing back-end PHP developer who has experience with the Lithium PHP framework. Communication skills and fast learning are a must.
Our site is a fast-growing pet product discount site with thousands of active members and real revenue every day. We've built the site solidly and with growth in mind, and now it's time to make that growth happen and I need more dev resources!
Tech stack on this project is Lithium on PHP 5.4, MySQL, Apache, on EC2 with ELB, etc. We are open to embracing additional AWS (and other) solutions as we scale up.
I'm a back-end developer myself, and our small team has a terrific designer/front-ender and another back-ender. Compensation can be hourly or by monthly retainer, and there will be performance-based bonuses as we hit deadlines and deliver terrific features.
Please shoot me an email at joshchurgin at g mail dot com if this interests you. Looking forward to hearing from you!
Hey everyone, I'm starting a weekly newsletter for freelancers. It will be a weekly roundup of useful articles, resources and job postings for freelance programmers. I'll personally curate it, so you can be assured the quality is high (see my profile and HN history to be sure).
FWIW, I had a few interactions with roland over a github pull request for a project I maintain, he seems to really grok open source and to be a straight to the point and professional guy.
Nothing yet, last time I posted I had a few people asking me to co tact them for ROR and JS work. They said their contact details were in their profile, so I can only guess that they had a twisted sense of humor?

SEEKING WORK - SF Bay Area - Remote or Local - Long or Short Term Projects
I'm a full-stack Java and Rails developer as well as a published mobile app developer.
Web/Back-End Development - An expert in Java and Rails environments. Comfortable with web development, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Significant JavaScript experience, including client-side MV* with Backbone.js and Ember.js as well as back-end Javascript with Node.js.
Mobile Development - Have deployed multiple apps across iOS and Android platforms for phones and tablets. Experienced in both native (iOS, Android) and cross-platform HTML (Sencha Touch, JQuery Mobile) development.
I am a software engineer who focuses on Android development. Within the last 2 years, I have worked on projects for for small and large startups, as well as for brands such as AT&T, Anheuser Busch and Victoria Secret. Within that period I have completed over seven apps and two mobile SDKs. I am deeply passionate about mobile development and creating top-notch experiences.
What can I do for you? Here are some things I specialize in:
* iOS to Android Ports. Do you have an iOS app that you want to port to Android? I can take the existing iOS experience, modify it to conform to Android standards and deliver a polished high-quality Android app. I have done this successfully for multiple clients such Gving and Snapr (see my portfolio below [1]).
* Web Apps. Do you have a mobile site that you want to convert to an app? I can package the mobile web content and create a mobile app using a standard solution like PhoneGap or a custom web wrapper. For more advanced projects I can create a hybrid app that combines the best of the web and native worlds to fully access all the capabilities of the mobile device. Some sample projects in this category include JackThreads and Snapr (see my portfolio below [1]).
* App Rescue and App Optimization. Do you have an Android app that isn't quite working? Perhaps it crashes, it's slow or has other problems? I can perform a complete analysis, diagnose the issues and quickly fix them. For a sample project in this category see Loc8te in my portfolio below [1].
* SDKs. Do you have some awesome stuff that you want everyone to use in their own apps? I can put together a feature rich SDK that lets other developers easily access your app's functionality / services. I have done this for Snapr and Loc8te (see my portfolio below [1]).
Feel free to get in touch. My portfolio and email are listed below.
SEEKING WORK - Remote/Freelance Python/Django/jQuery, with extensive experience building e-commerce marketplaces. I have a research background, data analysis, playing around with NLP right now. I run a django dev shop, currently taking gigs for it. Here's my portfolio:
- Eleven years of professional experience in scientific software development, including application development, requirements definition, testing, profiling, optimization, performance tuning, refactoring, and continuous integration.
- Experience with scientific computing, high-performance cluster computing, computational geometry, computational topology, computer vision, high-performance computer graphics, machine learning, GUI programming, web development, and bioinformatics.
- Strong understanding of object-oriented and imperative/functional programming principles. Extensive mathematics and advanced computer science background (PhD, MS in computer science).
- Advanced Scala development skills. Experience includes Scalaz, Shapeless, Akka, Slick, and Reactive-Core.
I'm looking for something around 1-3 days/week since my startup's taking longer to generate revenue than I thought (such is the life).
My background is in quantitative development but for the past 18 months I've been developing pretty much full stack using Python/R/Django/Flask/jQuery/MySQL/MongoDB/AWS to build Pressi (http://getpressi.com/dan) and Makers Alley (https://makersalley.com/). I've recently been getting up to speed on the JS side of things (Node.js/AngularJS/EmberJS) but am definitely as productive with them as I am with Python. Forgot to mention that I've also done a ton of work with the various social media APIs.
I blog at http://dangoldin.com/ and also have a bunch of other projects on there for anyone interested.
I know I'm not the best coder from a best practices standpoint but I pride on getting things out quickly (which is cheaper!) and iterating on them when needed. My strength is on the prototyping side rather than building and maintaining long term projects.
Also - I enjoy just meeting and chatting with people so if you're interested in getting coffee or a beer let me know - dangoldin gmail.
We require a senior PHP developer to take over a project at short notice. The role will require you to work in our London office for around 4 weeks. The project is a complex web application holding financial information, and requires somebody with strong skills in OOP PHP5, Zend Framework 2, and MySQL. Experience with Symfony2 or Zend Framework 1 is a plus, and may form a suitable replacement if the candidate is willing to pick up ZF2 very quickly.
The role requires someone who can work quickly and methodically to a very high standard, and to tight deadlines. You will also need to enforce and comply with design patterns where necessary. It is an immediate start - handover will begin on Monday 17th. We offer a very competitive daily rate.
Key requirements:
-- Highly proficient in Zend Framework 2 (or willingness to pick it up very quickly). The emphasis is on version 2, not 1, because they're very different.
-- Familiar with design patterns (Service Locator, abstraction, composition, adapters; general GoF patterns)
-- OOP PHP5
-- Solid knowledge of MySQL (normalisation, foreign key constraints, indexes)
-- Strong Apache 2 and Linux skills
-- Working knowledge of Git and Composer (dependency management)
-- Good knowledge of AJAX, jQuery and JavaScript
-- Experience working in an Agile working environment
We are a very small, very early stage startup improving some features on our product, a private social network.
Great experience in MVC and Azure is necessary.
There are two jobs:
I) Create the feature of event notification inside the site and the related email notifications service (the basic in any social network) using Azure and Sendgrid.
II) Reformulate the whole UI of the site. Great experience in MVC front-end is necessary. All the design is already created, the job is just reposition everything
SEEKING WORK - Chicago/Remote/Willing to travel within U.S.
Having trouble finding a UI/UX designer that fits within your budget?
My name is Shahed Khan, a UI/UX designer and freelancer based in Chicago, IL. I've co-founded two start-ups and realize that bootstrapping is one of the hardest things of running a start-up. If you're looking to build out the first version of your product, but don't have a boat load of money lying around to pay a freelancer, that's where I come in. I've been freelancing for a few years as a visual UI/UX designer. I have experience taking projects from idea to a full design ready to send off to the developer to make it a reality.
What I can offer:
* UI/UX design
* Creative branding
* iOS designing
* Web designing
* Android designing
* Wordpress Theme designing
* Responsive design (RWD)
* Search Engine Optimization
Please do not hesitate to send me an email, I'm more than happy to chat about what it is you're looking to build. I've attached a link to my portfolio and LinkedIn profile.
Portfolio - http://dribbble.com/shahed (There are a few projects I have not uploaded on Dribbble yet, so please feel free to email me asking for some of my other WIP (work in process).
Freelance developer based in the Brighton in the UK. I can travel to London but I usually prefer to work remotely.
I love working on MVPs and prototypes. I'd love to help you
turn your idea into reality.
I work in a range of languages but I usually choose Python when I have
a choice. I also do a lot of work in JavaScript. I have a range of
skills from web development to computer vision. I can help with Rich
JavaScript Applications and RESTful API design (see a talk I gave on
the subjects here[1]). I've been enjoying AngularJS recently, it makes
some things very easy and is a nice contrast with Backbone.JS (which I
also still use for other things).
A very non-exhaustive list of technologies I have built real things with (and enjoyed): Python, JavaScript, Django, Node.JS, Backbone.JS, AngularJS, OpenCV.
I have been shipping software for more than 10 years now and started freelancing a while back 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.)
My last consulting assignment was 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'd prefer to pick up a long term remote work contract.
References from previous clients are available on request.
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 work, remote only.
I've a heck of background in algorithms, mathematics, AI and machine learning.
I've been actively participating in programming competitions too.(And got several awards in them) This is my profile in topcoder:
http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=MemberProfile&cr...
Done interesting works in Machine learning,image processing and Natural language processing.(Too bad my website is not ready yet, but I can show the screenshots and talk about them!)
I also developed apps with app engine(using python) and ruby on rails.
The languages that I speak includes: Java, C++, C#, python, ruby,Javascript, Matlab,Lisp.
I'm an experienced iOS developer (using rubymotion of late, but traditionally using obj-c). I'm decent at Rails and strong at PHP (ZendFramework), so writing the app and the server-side backend to go with it is my bread and butter.

Recently working with Meteor (real-time javascript framework) and comfortable building basic applications (e.g. CRUD) with it.

I work with startups and web agencies to help them spend less time worrying about technical problems, and more time growing their business.
How can I help you?
- Expert sysadmin services, on tap
- Infrastructure design and implementation
- Server maintenance and optimisation (performance and cost)
- Quickly get up and running with tools like Puppet
About Me
I'm writing a book on AWS System Administration that will be published by O'Reilly later this year.
I am running a two man web, print and iOS agency (me coding, my partner moving pixels). We are located in Heidelberg and Leipzig / Germany.
I have been a freelancer for 10 years. I prefer Django and Python but I also have shipped projects with Ruby (Sinatra, RoR), C++ and PHP (Wordpress). Server administration was and still is part of my daily life as writing solid, test covered code and doing the usual frontend work.
My partner studies printing technologies and joined me after finishing her apprenticeship as digital media designer, as one of the three best graduates in her year. Her daily work includes designing logos and brands (business cards, catalogs,...) and making the things I build pretty.
We typically work with freelancers and small businesses but also realized big projects for international clients.

Linux sysadmin, with experience in high performance computing (HPC) and batch administration
Every hour you spend doing monotonous and repetitive tasks is one that could be spent doing something else. If a computer can do it, why not automate it? If there's people involved, let's get it down to the bare minimum.
Recent things I've done:
* Optimized application to reduce task turnaround time by 40%
* Matched specialized application to better hardware to reduce completion time by over 30%
* Streamlined a process from 1 month of effort, to 2 weeks, to 1 day
* Enabled user self-service configuration of tool that previously required support requests
I primarily write Perl and Ruby [on Rails], though if you have particular requirements I'm flexible. I fully understand the desire to have a minimum set of languages in your environment.
Just to be up front, this is a nights & weekends thing for me for the time being.

I specialize in iOS UI design and I'm familiar with everything that goes into making an app. I won't just hand you PSDs, I can also slice all the assets correctly and create detailed style guides for the developer. But if you only need someone to jump in and do wire frames or a mock up, I can do that as well.
I'm aggressively looking for greenfield rich-client HTML5 mobile and web projects.
I have 15+ years developing software (enterprise and consumer) and am currently in the early stages of building out a boutique full-service agency focused on HTML5 application development.
I code full-stack Rails / Javascript with an exclusive focus on modern SPA apps (Sencha Touch, Backbone, ExtJS).
SEEKING WORK in Omaha, Nebraska, travel possible, remote preferred. jrrd@kmbll.com
I build value and limit development costs by approaching all software as long-lived projects which require a language that supports long-lived projects that helps create better software by virtue.
I develop with the Ada language with 7 years of experience developing well-documented, well-tested software with a focus on the web building software using Ada Web Server, MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, various JavaScript libraries, REST APIs, Schema-defined XML and more.
I've spent 5+ years working remotely with an Ada development team for an American company.
I've written a lot of javascript for a range of devices, including the Google TV, mobile devices, server apps with node.js, and tons on good old regular sites.
I've got a super strong frontend background too. There's not really anything with html && css that I can't do.
Languages: Javascript, Python, php, (css and html if you count those as languages)

SEEKING WORK - San Francisco Bay Area, CA or REMOTE, TRAVEL OK
I help companies build web, mobile, and desktop apps, SDKs, and APIs. I work with node.js and Objective-C (OS X, iOS backend), but languages are just tools: in the past month I've also been doing client work in Ruby on Rails, C#/.NET, and working on my own product in Elixir (Erlang).
Looking for interesting short and long-term projects. Available in July.
What I do: I'm a front-end web developer and designer, and work out of my own shop, Heta (http://heta.co). I design, develop, and customize WordPress themes, or convert PSD designs or HTML sites to WordPress.
Technologies I use: PHP, HTML, CSS, jQuery, CodeIgniter, WordPress, mySQL, ZURB Foundation (3 & 4), SVN for version control. Self-taught and resourceful.
Reach out to me at: hn [at] heta [dot] co (not com). I can show you live sites I've developed, and a premium theme I'm currently working on.
I'm a Canadian based in Toronto. I do mostly python and javascript stuff including django, flask, nodejs, etc. I tend to use either postgres, mysql or couchdb for database stuff. I know ruby and php too. I can do front-end development but my design sense is lacking. Willing to pickup any technology not listed here. I prefer the command line to GUIs (except when it comes to my web browser) if for whatever reason you find that to be an asset.
SEEKING WORK - Remote or Local, India and ready to shift if necessary.
I'm a hacker, freshly out of college, but my love with software and programming is pretty dated like 4 years.
I love to build software for smartphones, Android currently being my girl. I often flirt with Django based web projects as well.
At the moment I'm trying to build up my portfolio so whilst I won't be mega cheap elance-style, I can do some very good rates right now. Whilst it sounds a bit hard-sell-y, I can only keep it low for so long though (bills!)
I can also build the app if required - have worked in Titanium & Phonegap. Decade of webdev experience too, so any API integration/building etc etc is no problem.
Happy to share some samples with you by email/skype/whatever & can set up Testflight to show you apps in progress.
I am an application developer with primary focus on web application development. I'm strongly passionate about web standards and creating amazing experiences.
I love working on prototypes & MVPs. I'd really like to turn your business idea into reality.
I build native iOS and Android apps with focus on letting you increase your profits, gain more market share or even raise funding.
I have years of experience building complex business solutions for startups, SMEs and Fortune 500 companies.
Apps I've built have been covered in places like Techcrunch, The Next Web, VCCircle, The Times of India and nominated for the Webby award alongside Pandora, Vevo mobile and Songza; and helped one of my clients raise an angel round and secure $500,000 in seed funding.
I've been working in software startups for more than 15 years, some of which I founded or co-founded. As an entrepreneur I'm a generalist, yet specializing in full-stack web and mobile development with Ruby on Rails and Clojure.
I've been developing on the iOS platform for 3 - 4 years working on my own projects and contract work. I have successfully built apps for individuals, small companies, and government contractors.
My specialties include client/server apps, image manipulation, tableview performance, facebook api, foursquare api, and multiple google apis.
I have successfully worked with local companies and remote teams, and am open to either for future projects.

SEEKING WORK - Remote Preferred, Light Travel - Will disclose location upon request (Continental USA, major tech city).
Led and closed the only financing round as the VP of Analytical Operations for a medium-sized professional gambling syndicate. While working for aforementioned syndicate, I led the merger of our firm with another small group (talent acquisition) and hired an additional 10+ employees, expanded to two overseas offices when UIEGA passed in the United States, and developed all of the back-end internal tools that were used to analyze opportunities in various gambling markets: Sports Betting, Casino Games (Blackjack Variants, Slots, Roulette, etc), and Horse Racing.
Sold my shares after UIEGA made it difficult to stay in one place in the USA with regards to moving money around. Still work as a part-time consultant from time to time for the original firm as well as other clients. Had stints as a contractor and FTE at major tech firms on the west coast as well as small startups. Have done consulting work for professional sports teams on tech and non-tech projects, including building a massive video capture database of games tied with metadata as well as complex simulators to influence player development and acquisition decisions.
Previous positions included: Director of Business Intelligence, Lead Developer, Economic Games Analyst, and most recently, Data Scientist.
OSS: Minor contributor to hiphop-php and a famous PHP framework.
Tech: PHP, Python, C/C++ (enough to get me through ML work, relying on FANN often), MySQL/MariaDB, minor sysadmin chops, minor shell scripting
Primarily a very good business/economic analyst who has medium-strength tech backgrounds. Melds well with existing teams. Consider myself a professional problem solver using various tools - frequentist/Bayesian statistics, machine learning, coding, data analysis, regression, etc.
Holds an undergraduate degree from a small private university in Economics (Game Theory focus) with some post-graduate work (no degree) in Computer Science.
More details can be given upon request. Very active on HN but needing to use a throwaway for security reasons, as disclosing even a redacted work history may not be safe on my primary account.
Rates negotiable. Very little to no equity desired.
We are a lab that makes awesome web and mobile software to solve problems in the developing world. Generally by creating better information systems. The point is to improve access to basic needs such as health, education, clean water, electricity.
We are hiring for a Senior Software Engineer and a Front End Engineer, both NYC based.
See https://github.com/modilabs/jobs for more.
While this sounds interesting, it seems like you are looking for a full time employee, not a freelancer. Perhaps https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5803764 is the thread you had meant to post in?
If you are looking for a freelancer, I'm interested! If not... I may apply anyway, but I am not currently based out of NYC.

Experienced WebGL/OpenGL developer wanted for open source mapping project
The OpenLayers 3 open source web mapping project [1] is looking for experience WebGL developer for a short term contract to implement key features and to ensure that the project follows WebGL best practices.
Your responsibilities:
- implement the core renderer of styled 2D geospatial vector data (e.g. to render KML [2] and SLD [3]) in WebGL (JavaScript & GLSL)
- contribute to architecture design decisions
- ensure that the project follows WebGL best practices
Contract:
- duration: initially 2-3 months part time, starting as soon as possible
- location: remote, but availability during European working hours is desirable
Your profile:
- must: experienced WebGL or OpenGL developer
- strongly desired: strong JavaScript skills, but skill in similar languages is OK
- bonus: experience working with geospatial data
To apply, and for more information:
- contact tom.payne@camptocamp.com
- include a link to your GitHub profile, or a CV and an example of your code if you do not have a GitHub profile
More information about the project and the position:
OpenLayers 3 is the next generation of open source mapping library. It’s equivalent to the JavaScript client part of Google Maps, but supports a much wider range of geospatial data sources and different map projections. The project includes three back-end renderers: WebGL (for advanced functionality), Canvas (when WebGL is not available) and DOM (for very old browsers). WebGL offers many exciting possibilities for the visualization of geospatial data, notably client-side rendering of large quantities of data, and richer interaction and analysis. For this position, you will be writing WebGL code (JavaScript & GLSL) for 2D rendering of styled geospatial vector data. In the near future we plan to add 3D terrain support, and integration with Cesium [4] for virtual globe support is ongoing.

Are you building a web-based product? Perhaps adding new features to an existing product? You're probably a hustler. You know what you're doing: you have a vision and you have a plan. Maybe you already have a team, but there's just so much to do and not enough time to do it.
This is where I come in.
I'm full stack web developer who loves working with small agile teams (of designers & developers), taking care of all technical details, across the entire stack, to make things work.
I'm a generalist polyglot programmer. I have experience with both front-end and back-end. I can take care of any aspect of development: be it designing a data model for the server side, tweaking css on the front end, or hacking javascript to make that rich UI. I can integrate all the pieces together to produce the desired result and make it work nicely.
I'm the kind of developer you'll enjoy working with. I'm passionate about teaching and learning. I care about what I do and will strive to make sure it is done well. I have a relaxed friendly demeanor and I enjoy working with others. I'm open to feedback and always looking for ways to improve myself and my work.
Get in touch with me via email: hasan.aljudy@gmail.com
I'd love to hear from you about what you're building and I'm happy to have a nice long conversation to see how I can help.
You can see some examples of my work on my site. If you contact me via email I will show you another cool project I'm currently working on that's still in alpha stage and so I haven't put up a link to it yet.

The web is shiny. The stuff which keeps the web running is unglamorous plumbing. I'm a plumber. If you have some weird hardware which needs a driver, I can do that. If you're a company which has a big code depot and needs a better way to build it, I'll make a better build tool. You might have a greenhouse full of bar-coded experiments and need some way to track all of those data points. Yep, me again.

Examples of things I've created:
http://scanner.rachelbythebay.com/ - Software Defined Radio used to monitor an entire trunked system in parallel, with over 1 million calls logged and randomly accessible. Includes bonus "social layer" where people can tag interesting calls to make them easier for others to find quickly.
http://rachelbythebay.com/bb/ - C++ depot build tool. Why specify dependencies twice? #include should be all you need. Can you build a large project without writing rules in some build language (Makefile and friends)? I can. Can you add new files to your depot without having to go back to that build language to teach it about them? Yep, I can do that too.
https://github.com/rachelbythebay/protolog - Tired of parsing Apache logs in ASCII? Keep them in a strong binary format and your life gets much easier.
http://fred.rachelbythebay.com/ - I got tired of Google Reader way back in 2011 and wrote a replacement which just works and stays out of my way. Now, when they pull the plug in July, I'll be ready.
https://rachelbythebay.com/edu/ - Streaming high-bitrate video just to be able to read someone's "screencast" is just painful. Text should be text. I use that philosophy to provide lessons for those looking to build things with C++.
I also slice through weird "it doesn't work" problems, sometimes for things I've never even seen before. Got some legacy system which doesn't want to play nice any more? Shoot me a message: https://rachelbythebay.com/contact/
