I'm Eric, full-stack software engineer with 12+ YOE. Before becoming a software engineer I spent almost 10 years in sales and marketing. Holding titles such as Director of Sales and Director of Consumer services. I initially got into tech to solve my own problems, and as the saying goes, one thing led to another and I've been loving my time as a software engineer.
I specialize in full stack to the core. From DevOps/IaC to CICD to frontend styling, I'm comfortable and experienced in all aspects.
Interested in linking with companies willing to exploit all of my experience to deliver tangible impact.
Cheers!

Hello!
I'm JD, a Software Engineer with experience touching many parts of the stack (frontend, backend, databases, data & ETL pipelines, you name it). Most recently, I spent several years at Google working full-stack on applications that supported our customer service teams. I then switched to working on facilitating our teams through building frameworks, teaching, and overall enabling them to quickly launch applications.
Prior to that, I spent a couple years at First Orion - a smaller data company - helping found & build out a data engineering team as one of the first engineers. We were focused on building data pipelines and models to protect our users from malicious phonecalls. If you know the phrase "Scam Likely", we were a pioneer :)
There is a noticeable gap in my resume where I was dealing with health issues from 2022 - 2024, but am looking to rejoin the software industry. I'm passionate about helping others through my work, teaching, and building tools to improve the experience for end users - including other developers.
I am looking for opportunities to grow and considering both industry and academia.
I have about 3 YoE training PyTorch models on HPC clusters and 1 YoE optimizing PyTorch models, including with custom CUDA kernels.
I want to go deeper into this niche, do more CUDA programming, explore tiling DSLs such as Triton, get to know Jax and XLA and study, use and build ML compilers.
If you are a computer engineering/science professor seeking a highly dedicated PhD candidate, for research in aforementioned topics, I would be very interested.
Or if you have a team of greybeards doing HPC/systems programming and you're looking for some young blood, I am a very quick learner, and very eager to learn.

I've been working on ruby on rails since 1.2. I have linux servers at home and a business-class network setup. I've created docker containers from scratch and set up AWS Fargate and all the related services to run them and connect them to a public IP address.
There are a lot of people with similar experience, what makes me different is I'm interested in understanding how the entire company works, the industry it is in, and the people who make it happen.
- I was on the board of directors for furry convention for 3 years where I learned a lot about running a business.

Senior/Staff Engineer with a deep focus on backend, ops, and architecture. I build durable, scalable systems and have a knack for mentoring teams and leading projects.
I solve problems at every level of abstraction—from the 10,000-foot view down to the code you don't have to write. My first career as a social worker and policy statistician means I never forget the 'who' and 'why' behind the technology. I've been building for the web since '95 and have worked at every stage of startup, plus solo consulting.
I have a special love for complex system design, wrangling crappy third-party APIs, and hunting down really weird bugs. I can step in as a PM in a pinch, but I'd rather work with your great PMs.
I'm looking for a team that genuinely believes their work is making the world a bit better (or even... a lot!)
I am looking for an AI company, startup, partner or lab who is looking for an on-hands engineer with a huge amount of passion figuring out the edge of capabilities when it comes to building AI products. If this resonates with your vision, please sent me a message. I am available full-time.

I'm an experienced generalist software engineer typically working with early-stage startups or with clients on relatively greenfield projects.
I have strong technical foundations, good product sense, and have gone deep with AI/LLM tech both in the sense of being able to use it effectively, and in exploring the design space for products/tools leveraging it.
I've done a lot of work in developer tools and data visualization of various kinds. Data-rich, non-traditional UIs with highly optimized UX, and rapid prototyping are my forte.
I've been basically on sabbatical for a while now, mostly taking the time to learn and build with AI. At some point in early 2024 I decided: okay, time to take this seriously, and have. After the long break, I'm ready to start something new!
I'm also happy to work on other stuff, I had a recent blog post [2] do fairly well on HN a few months back, which would give you get a great idea of how I work.

Hello!
I am a senior full-stack developer with over 5 years of experience building applications for the United States weather service (NOAA, NWS, OHD, NOMADS, etc.), Minnesota schools, and non-profit organizations. I started out building front-end apps and grew to love the back-end/cloud as well (it is so nice to write database/API/CMS/cloud helper programs quickly in Node, Python, Go, C++, etc.!). My most involved project was working across the stack on a hole-in-one application for the weather service that consolidates a suite of old applications. I am flexible and love wearing many hats of technologies & procedures. My previous work comrades always described me as high-spirited, excited, and always amped to take on challenging tickets (for example: I built a node.js helper application to migrate 10,000+ vanilla JS/HTML web pages to a tricky CMS).
I'm all sparkles when it comes to full-stack development! I am actively looking for remote full-time or contract work. While that for loop is running, I am deep diving into new tech/AI && full stack projects, such as the Stone King Wiki, Magic: The Gathering Assistant v2, and a touch-focused app similar to what Hans Zimmer uses as the primary console for extending his music composition capabilities.

Résumé/CV: 20 years programming experience (13 years as a SSWE, 7 of those as a lead) Even spent a couple years as an overall IT director at a startup, but decided I much prefer to be coding! Mostly worked in eCommerce (created an ecommerce platform from scratch) before Shopify ate our lunch. I also spent a some time converting other platforms to shopify. The last 5 years I've worked in Call Center tech (Twilio based, very familiar with their APIs) and using LLMs (AI) to improve call center service (automatically analyzing call recordings for agent performance, call outcomes, customer sentiment, etc) I've mentored/taught several junior engineers when I was lead engineer as well.

Hi, I'm Andrew Trettel. I'm a scientist with a PhD in mechanical engineering looking for any potential opportunities outside of academia and research labs. I have over a decade of experience in scientific research, especially on the numerical side. I have years of experience in writing software for and running large simulations on high-performance computing (HPC) systems. I have also developed software for non-scientific purposes, like creating user interfaces for desktop applications. I have years of experience working with large datasets, including the tasks of calculating statistics and developing hypotheses/models/theories from data. I've worn many hats over the years and love learning new and interesting topics.
About: I'm a New Grad, avid reader, keeping up with AI dev, love tennis & journaling.
Looking for: engineering or devrels @ early/growth stage startup, AI-ML/inference-infrastructure/distributed computing/B2B SaaS.
Dream: Would love to build OS level orchestration layer for AI agent with shared context, enhanced actionable abilities and IPC/messaging within sandboxed env.
Past Exp: Worked on distributed ML workflow orchestration engine at an ML automations startup, used redis+k8s+python for dependency-aware task scheduling. Worked with a real-estate private equity firm on building an E2E deal sourcing platform.
Hi; my name is David- I have a MS Computational Design and BS Industrial Design so specialize in physical hardware design to production; anything from household appliances, tools, orthotics, electronic housings, sub-assemblies and mechanisms. Parametric programming allows for dynamic and optimized systems, I also make custom functions and utilities for Rhino and Grasshopper.
Additionally; I am known for my extensive work in photogrammetry and Lidar for cultural preservation, digital asset creation and reverse engineering. Professional photo and video, FPV drone operation.
I work equally well in a studio and social environment as independent, juggling multiple projects and workflows simultaneously. Prefer remote or in person close to Pittsburgh or Palo Alto (Starting September 1st.) Happy to regularly travel for data capture assignments. Currently working freelance remotely for an orthotics company and the Russian Orthodox Church making 3D models of historic buildings.
Remote: Yes, EU timezones preferred

Resume: https://bit.ly/3B3o65M (It links to my CV repo at Github, pinky promise. You can also visit github.com/<hnusername>.)
I'm not actively looking (hence why my resume link is obfuscated like that) but I'm at least interested in getting a feel for the market right now. That said, I'm willing to consider a position with a great fit for my skill set and career goals.
Here's my pitch: I have experience in a multitude of industries and positions. From improving legacy infra and processes in an established telco company to scaling a fast-moving startup from 200K to 2M users. In my free time, I love writing Code That Is Poetry but day-to-day I am not an idealist engineer who doesn't compromise. Well-engineered code is clean and correct but correct above all else.
Oh, also, I'm great at writing documentation. I consider myself introverted but apparently my communication skills are above average for Software Engineers. I also pride myself on my humility and modesty.
I'm currently a backend engineer developing features and improving infra for an online game with millions of daily active users. I'd love to explore other technical positions in the games industry short of joining a AAA studio because (a) I don't want to crunch and (b) my skill set does not lay that way; other tech-creative industries would also appeal to me! Another particular interest is in B2C businesses where the 'C' is software developers. I'd love to chat and network about opportunities; if you think you have a product that could benefit from my skill set, drop me a line!

My focus has been on browser automation and building browser agents since 2018, with 13 years of enterprise experience building dynamic data user interfaces for web and mobile. I have experience working at both medium 130 person AI companies and small, fast-moving 7 person teams wearing many different hats, which I prefer. I have been instrumental in taking multiple companies from 0 to 1, both as a consultant and as a full-time employee in media, real estate, marketing, streaming services, education, and fintech.
Currently, I have a side project building a Chrome extension using VSCode’s core libraries. I’m working on incorporating the VSCode Copilot Chat—which they released the source code for last week—to create a Copilot for the browser. [0]
I look forward to speaking with you :)

I took time after my previous role to focus on my relationships, family, and personal interests. Now I'm looking to bounce back and get involved with a company that will push me to deliver both high impact and high quality work. With over 3 years of working with ETL pipelines and REST API integrations and development, I understand how to develop and maintain robust and scalable data systems. I'm ready to leverage past experience to help improve back-end systems, and take on more responsibilities that position me to learn, grow, and deliver value.
Remote: Happy in the office, hybrid, and remote. I have plenty of experience with all three paradigms.

Technologies: I'm David, a Rails dev and engineering leader, with 10+ years shipping Rails apps to production and leading teams doing the same. I started in Rails back in Rails 2 and have been in the Rails world ever since. I'm known in the Rails world for my writing (including a book) on the Hotwire stack.
I've led product and engineering at bootstrapped SaaS companies as part of product orgs ranging in size from just me to > 100, and I've directly managed teams of 18 while still keeping my hands close to the code, and close to the product roadmap.
I do some consulting with early stage founders, writing code, hiring and coaching teams, and helping get new products to market. I would love to shift back out of consulting and into my next full time role, preferably somewhere where I can wear both an engineering and a product hat, with the chance to make a big impact.

Hi, I'm Alex. I'm a year post grad from CS, still looking for work. I have been biding my time by doing a variety of projects to keep busy and learn new things. Prior to this, I have done systems administration, where I managed on prem Windows servers, Hyper-V, and networking hardware for some school districts where I have studied. In my spare time, I run my own Linux homelab using Docker, Ansible, and Grafana. I use it to self-host my projects (among other things), which include a full-stack Reddit marketplace monitor with its own CI/CD pipeline. I'm a generalist who enjoys working from the infrastructure up to the application.
Honestly? I'm not picky (never was). I don't mind a chance working anywhere.
I'm very strong front-to-back and have a few decades of experience.

I'm a Systems Engineer, staff-level generalist with ~20YoE. Seeking backend & platform, service reliability roles. Ideal job would be designing, developing (CRDs, operators), monitoring and troubleshooting K8s clusters. Passionate about working with Go, Zig codebases.
Urgently looking for full-time/part-time/contract positions on GMT-4 timezone up to 2-3 hours overlap. I welcome any opportunity and am happy to consider all offers for the right opportunity.
Hi, I'm Harry Altman! I was the maintainer of Truffle Debugger (https://github.com/trufflesuite/truffle/tree/develop/package...), a Solidity smart contract debugger, for 5 years. I eventually ended up writing my own decoding and encoding libraries to support it, as well as a bunch of other things.
I'm good at this sort of nitpicky work, spotting and thinking about edge cases. I like getting things exactly right, even though that obviously isn't always possible due to various constraints. I've been kind of wondering if I should get into embedded development; I find it appealing when things are low-level or similarly constrained. I've beaten Microcorruption. :) (The original levels, I haven't played the new ones.)
I'm also quite interested in unusual or obscure data formats, and working on Truffle Debugger and its associated libraries certainly involved a bunch of having to figure undocumented formats and interfaces. :) I put down above what languages I've worked substantially in but I'd say I'm a generalist and will figure out whatever you give me (I knew approximately no Javascript, Typescript, or Solidity when I started working at Consensys).
I'm a mathematician by background and in my spare time, so after the Truffle Debugger project was shut down I took some time off to focus on my mathematical projects. But now I'm looking for work again! If you need someone like me, I'm available for hire!

I'm normally a contractor for startups. Here is my freelancers post:

I've been upskilling in machine learning using Math Academy's Mathematics for Machine Learning (top 5 in the top league last week), Andrew Ng's course and a handful of other resources.
If you look at my posts I'm highly skeptical of the hype. However there is definitely something new and profound about llms and diffusion models. I may think vibe coding is a bad idea but that doesn't mean I don't use AI in some form daily.
I'm usually a contractor but I'm willing to consider a founding engineer position at an AI startup.
Since salaries are considerably lower than my contracting rate (balanced by equity) I'll be approaching it like an investor.
If your startup is doing something genuinely unique and interesting, send me an email. We can meet up, you can pitch and we can talk shop.

Most of my language experience has been with Javascript and Golang, but I've used Python, Java and Lua professionally and Lisp and Haskell for fun. I would most prefer to work with Golang but open to using any language I've used or learning other languages. My strongest skillsets revolve around making highly distributed systems highly reliable and fast (millions of requests per second across thousands of machines across multiple datacenters globally).

Hello I'm Jordan, I have 15+ years of experience with full stack software development, and leading technical teams. I've been CTO a few times, worked in/for startups, consulted for fortune 500s, and worked on public sector modernization projects.
What I am good at:
- DevOps
- Building teams that get things done. I love getting to the point where product owners (voluntarily) say "how about you guys in engineering do whatever you think is best, because we need some time to think about these features requests before we know what more to build"
What I'm interested in:
- DevOps/DevEx improvements,
- Improvements to containerization, eBPF, MicroVMs, Linux internals
- I like smaller (< 50 person) companies of all kinds
I am flexible in regards full time, part time, contract, occasional consulting.

I’m a software engineer with over 5 years of experience, specializing in backend development, system architecture, and performance optimization. I have extensive experience with scalable systems, fault-tolerant architectures, and cloud infrastructure, particularly with AWS, DigitalOcean, and bare metal. Additionally, I actively contribute to and maintain open-source projects. I am currently open to both remote and onsite roles in Europe or Africa, with a keen interest in cloud-native technologies and projects that make a meaningful impact.
Feel free to check out my GitHub: https://github.com/c12i or LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/collinsmuriuki.
Strong C++/C background, systems-level orientation. I’m at home in resource-constrained, real-time, or just-plain-hostile environments. Embedded Linux, networking stacks, wireless protocols, FPGAs, weird bootloaders—if it’s not glamorous and people usually avoid it, there’s a good chance I’ve done it. Currently getting into Rust and Zephyr in my free time. Also very very strong background in networking/Wi-Fi, with several talks, published papers, and patents.
Looking for roles where software is the product, not an afterthought. I’d prefer to avoid places where Jira boards are sacred texts, architecture is decided by slide deck, and everyone’s calendar is 95% “syncs” to discuss work nobody’s doing. If your team measures value in working code and shipped products, and not in "alignment", we’ll probably get along.
Spoken at conferences (NetworkX, prpl Summit, SCTE Expo), given demos to customers, and generally enjoy making things that actually work.
If you’ve got an interesting problem, and you aren’t staffed wall-to-wall with MBAs LARPing as engineers via spreadsheet, shoot me an email.
I'm capable of learning anything when met with the challenge. I'm looking for a full time position where I can contribute to meaningful projects while learning new technologies and methodologies in software engineering.

While I'm familiar with various technologies, my passion lies in programming with Rust. Whether it's backend development, blockchain, compilers, DevOps, embedded systems or mobile applications, I am totally onboard as long as there is a little bit of Rust involved.

Hello! I'm a software developer with lots of experience in full stack and backend development. I was most recently a developer at SirusXM Radio until I was laid off recently. The languages I've used the most are Java, C++, Ruby ( Ruby on Rails ), Python, and JavaScript. I've also worked over a year in a classified setting and I still hold a security clearance. I'm looking for a junior/entry level software engineer position.
I attended Virginia Tech for three years and studied Computer Science and Math. I got the core CS curriculum completed; the part I didn't complete were the electives. I had to stop attending because I ran out of money.
Due to my current financial situation, unfortunately I'll require a salary position - no equity only.
With all that said, I'm open to having a conversation with anyone. Thanks! :)

Hi HN!
I'm an experienced full stack web developer + devops engineer with 6+ years' experience working in small teams and driving change. In my last role I brought a fintech product from 0 to EUR 300.000 in ARR while leading a small team. I have so far only worked in small teams that drive big change and have a product ownership mindset. Recently I've delved into functional programming with Haskell after working with Node.js/Python for the better part of a decade. I'm also a quick learner and having dealt with lots of technical debt in the past, I can get up to speed with any new technologies / codebases quickly.
I work best in IC capacity and I'm looking to join a fast/impactful team that needs to get things done. Thanks for reading!
Anyway, *I am hungry*. Hungry for growth, that is. Please reach out with any opportunities you may have.
My latest projects have been in full-stack edge ML R&D, memory controller firmware dev for POWER servers, and chip bringup/testing for Z mainframes.
I'm passionate about modular synthesis and tinkering with all sorts of analog circuits and DSP. Currently upskilling in analog PCB design and refining my abilities in FPGA development. Also WIP on a 3D-printed robot arm to practice control systems and actuation.
Please feel free to refer to my CV for more detailed information, or my website (https://nicze.de/philipp/). Currently, I am very interested in AI, but I am also happy to discuss any other interesting opportunities!
I run a consulting company (atomweight.io), and have provided infosec, devops, and software engineering services to a variety of clients. I am open to both full-time and contract engagements.
I don't particularly enjoy coasting or clocking out at 5pm (mostly since I'm a night owl), so I'm looking for opportunities where I can move fast, build, ship fast, contribute the most value, and grow. If my skills and experience seem like a good fit for your needs, please reach out!

I'm a Mechanical Engineer with 7 years of experience in mechanical design and hardware test and automation in manufacturing, with 3 years more focused on software integration. I've worn many hats across mechanical, electrical, and software design responsibilities. Always eager to learn more and share experience through mentorship. Most interested in mechanical design and automation roles in robotics, green tech, lab automation, or other hardware areas, but open to alternate background software roles.

I'm a developer who believes code isn't valuable unless it's used. That's why I start with conversations, not commits. I work to understand real problems before reaching for shiny new packages. I build tools that are simple, effective, and easy to adopt. My goal is always to solve the problem and make sure people know there’s a solution.
In my next role, I'm looking to work with a team that values clarity and impact. I'm especially interested in data heavy environments where thoughtful tooling can make workflows better.
Most recently, I built [Buckaroo](https://github.com/paddymul/buckaroo) an open source data table for Jupyter using Pandas/Polars. It combines fast rendering, summary stats, and a low-code UI. It scratches an itch I've had for over a decade and has already streamlined my own analysis workflow.
I’m a builder and coach at heart, and will happily build software, do product development, architect systems, or step into a leadership / management role. That said, you don’t want me to be your interface designer, but I can implement someone else’s design just fine.
It seems I do my best work as a strong #2, supporting a leader that values ideas and feedback, whether in a management or IC role. (Working Geniuses: invention and enablement. Working Frustrations: galvanizing and tenacity)

I'm Hung, a software engineer with 6+ years of experience. I have worked in different types of environments: from small, start-up-like, to medium-sized (~100-200 engineers), to big-corporation (~2000 engineers). I've built systems from scratch and scaled large distributed systems handling millions reqs/s. As a result, I have both the practicality and adaptivity of a start-up developer, and the awareness of scale, reliability and process of a software engineer.
I read extensively and learn systematically, not only software engineering but also a wide range of other subjects. My portfolio (https://portfolio.hungcq.com) showcases side projects driven by curiosity and a deep interest in learning. I enjoy exploring the full stack, experimenting with technologies such as the clouds, workflow engine, service mesh and observability stacks, ML, and LLMs.
(I think) I'm up for any challenge. I'm ambitious, I'm confident in myself. But I'm also humble enough to learn quickly from my mistake, and to work well with others.

Like this Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work, but I am open to work on any interesting project. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so I am in the process to relocate to Africa.
I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and I am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.
I value good teamwork over fancy tech, and I don't shy away from working on legacy code. I am primarily motivated by solving problems, so let me help you solve your problems.
I am open to work for a company anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.
While I could find a job elsewhere I believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location I am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.
In addition, I want to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. I also sponsor children that otherwise can't afford to go to school (see my website). If you want to support this, I would love to work with you. Also if you are interested in hiring African developers yourself. I can help you build up a team for you.

Full-stack web, software and game developer, specializing in high-performance, minimal-dependency solutions. Available as an individual contributor, lead developer, or consultant. Passion for simple, efficient code and pushing web technologies to their limits. Can mentor teams or bring expertise to complex projects.
Proven track record of building multi-million dollar websites from scratch to production.
Expert-level HTMX, C, Zig, Odin, WebAssembly, vanilla C/HTML/JS/CSS, PHP.
Proficient in Laravel and game dev frameworks.
Also experienced in technical streaming, community engagement, and mentoring developers on modern dev practices.
You’re a founder with a small, engineering-heavy team. You’ve got early revenue, a growing user base, and real traction, but no time to keep talking to users. You’ve outgrown founder-led support, and now you need someone to own everything user-facing.
I’m that person.
At Pythagora (YC W24), I was the first customer hire. I built DevRel, support, docs, demos, community, and launch content from zero. I set up systems to pull user insights from Discord, GitHub, Reddit, and email and turned that into product direction. I ran influencer campaigns, launched features, and shipped full-stack demo apps to tell the product story.
Before that, I spent 7 years at Streak (YC S11), leading technical support, building internal tooling in SQL, Zapier, and BigQuery, and working closely with the founders to guide product.
I'm also a software engineer. I’ve built internal tools, demo apps, and full-stack open-source projects, including a deploy preview framework I documented in a full technical case study.
Looking for a small, sharp team with early traction, ideally post-launch with signs of real user pull, but still pre-scale. A place where I can be the bridge between users and engineers, and help drive growth without the fluff.

Hello, my name is Jesse.
I'd describe myself as a competent generalist and a lifelong learner. I'm frequently working on something I've never done before.
My most recent professional experience has been about a year at a semiconductor startup where I wrote prototypes for a compiler and a cycle simulator.
One of my personal projects of ~10 years is a 3D game engine. Working on it has taught me a great deal about systems and graphics programming. It runs on Windows, Linux and Web (WASM/WebGL). I chose to build it without any libraries (barring the CRT for startup), which began as a learning exercise, but has taught me the value of simplicity.
I've also been working on a metaprogramming system for C & CPP. Think templates/constexpr, but significantly more ergonomic. It turns out I have a small passion for compilers. It currently generates many tens of thousands of lines of code for my game engine project including containers and an interactive realtime data visualization/editor.
On the optimization side of things, I recently wrote the world's fastest open-source AVX2 Perlin noise implementation, and wrote about the process on my blog. I beat the state-of-the-art by ~1.8x, which took me about two weeks.
That's the cliff-notes on my technical background. As a person I'm friendly and easy to get along with. I like the phrase "have strong opinions, weakly held". Outside of work I enjoy surfing, backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, rock-climbing and beer!
Cheers, Jesse

Hi, I'm Michael Geary. I've programmed in many languages and environments over the years. Some of my current interests are:
• Aviation and geographic data. For example, airspace and obstacle data importers for Wing; election results and voter information maps for Google; many interactive maps for other companies.
• Hardware interfacing. In a way, I am a "full stack" developer, but my stack may involve a front end to a piece of hardware rather than the cloud. I first got into programming via ham radio, so RF hardware remains an interest.
• Designing and building APIs. Too often an API is designed by exposing the internals of whatever system provides the API. My philosophy is the opposite: start with the apps. I like to build a series of sample apps before starting on the API. This way I can imagine what API will make those apps and others like them easy to build.
• Talk with users! I don't like to sit in a back room cranking out code. I want to make sure it's the right code for what my users need, and that it's easy to maintain and improve as we learn more about what they want.
Open to full time or contract.
I look forward to talking with you!

I’m a web and app developer with over 15 years of professional experience. I’ve worked at startups, mid-sized companies, and large corporations including Apple, eBay, and the Comcast Silicon Valley Innovation Center. Since starting freelance work in 2020, I’ve done a lot of work with Rust, Stripe payment APIs, and multiple GPT/LLM APIs. I specialize in full-stack web development, but I’m also experienced in iOS development, server administration, database design, API integrations and more. I'm primarily available for freelance work (short and medium term contracts) through my own LLC, but I'm very flexible when it comes to when and how I can provide value to your team/project.
Remote: yes -- required for domestic work, would willingly relo internationally

Hi there! I'm Dylan Fitzgerald, a software engineer with a knack for bridging the gap between technology and team dynamics. With a technical background in Ruby on Rails, Elixir, and DevOps, I excel in elevating the quality of projects while fostering a harmonious team environment. My years of consulting across the industry give me perspective on what works—and doesn't—with teams and process. In particular, I thrive on turning the implicit into deliberate decisions.
I've mostly consulted over the last seven years or so, but am open to going in-house for the right fit. Going deep on Elixir or learning a new culture by getting out of the state for a while would be compelling. (I've lived and worked outside the US for years previously.)
- Full-stack development with a focus on Ruby on Rails and Elixir ecosystems.
- Expert implementation of TDD (particularly RSpec) ensuring reliable, maintainable code.
- Process, communication, and goal refinement within your team.
- Mking informed decisions for your team and tech stack.
- DevOps practices to streamline your deployment and infrastructure management.
- Well-versed in using agentic AI tooling (my daily driver is Claude Code these days), and happy to explore and demo how this can accelerate you and your team.
My training in Shape Up and cross-industry exposure helps me tailor strategies specific to your team’s dynamics. I thrive in collaborative settings, helping leadership and teams navigate through their challenges to achieve exemplary results.
Past engagements have seen me providing code review services to hundreds of developers (junior to CTO level), and driving process improvements that enhance team cohesion and project delivery.
Let’s explore how we can build great stuff together!
I wanna do something with science or something that'll benefit humanity. I'd love to work with AI or ML or complexity science. I'd love to do deep research or build or improve something on the cutting edge. I want to merge into or absorb some mission and team somewhere like The Thing. I want to solve really weird problems with really intelligent people.
I have to admit that this possibility seems and feels pretty unlikely, though. Which is fine, because I'm currently employed, paid well, and working on things I find interesting and that benefit a vulnerable population :)
Remote: Yes. I prefer this way of working.
Willing to relocate: No.
Technologies: Go, Postgres and MySQL, Linux, and some BSD (OpenBSD and FreeBSD) system administration, Rust, JavaScript and HTML. I've dabbled a bit in Elixir as well, and would be very keen to try working with it professionally.

I am currently working as a software engineer for a large web hosting company. I'd like to change roles to work somewhere I can learn more and work remotely full-time. I'd really appreciate a team that values simplicity. When writing HTTP APIs in Golang, I'd like to be able to use just the standard lib, instead of a Perl compiler that transforms a set of YAML files into a gargantuan caricature of an enterprise Java web server.
I am an excellent communicator, that is probably my greatest strength. I'm curious, I'm honest, and I'm kind. My favorite feedback from a manager that I've gotten is that I get along with everyone. I greatly appreciate logical rigor, and make a sincere effort to regularly examine my beliefs, in order to discard useless or false ones. I have a solid mathematical background - my undergrad and master's were both in mathematics, with a specialization in theoratical computer science and discrete math, and I regularly practice maths, often with friends, for the fun of it. I love software. If you want some examples of my latest work, I encourage you to go look at my codeberg account:

I am a seasoned (>13 years experience) full-stack staff-to-principal-level software engineer/consultant specializing in the backend, systems architecture, platform engineering, internal tools, prototyping, and data engineering. In addition to strong programming and architectural skills, I'm a force multiplier for any team in either role through the three T's -- teaching, talking, and tooling.
In the past, I've taught a number of scientists and students to code in python; I've led and managed a number of high-impact engineering teams of up to 12; 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. >10% of all medicare applications and millions of individuals currently flow through pioneering no-code systems I conceived and built and have ran in production for over a decade.
More recently, I've built a no-code automated 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 inputs or outputs using a novel, patent-pending process; and applied these tools to various contracted projects requiring analysis and and cross-checking of information and other forms of integrity across textual and video/audio corpus data in a variety of domains (fiction and non-fiction).
I am also an improvisational pianist, published poet, and I've created novel algorithms and tools for studying and composing both music and poetry.
I have extensive experience working for and running startups, software consulting shops, with some mid-sized company engineering experience as well; these give me a unique insight into speaking with customers and internal stake-holders, translating between engineering and other departments, gathering requirements, aligning stake-holders across departments on a vision and attainable timeline, and architecting/building/taking ownership over significant internal and customer-facing areas of responsibility.
If any of the above seems like a match for you and your organization or project, don't hesitate to reach out.
