I'm looking for a senior full stack or senior backend role. I was unable to work following issues during the pandemic, which are now resolved, but I'm rarely getting to talk with anyone to be considered for interviews; AI rejects my CV outright. I'm stuck in an algorithmic prison.
Despite the length of break, my knowledge is current. If you need convincing of that, I recently got through the whole interview process at Moneybox for a senior backend role, which is pretty much the only interview I've had. Although they hired someone else, they spent a week trying to allocate extra budget to hire me. Unfortunately, that didn't happen, and so here I am.
If you aren't hiring, but know someone who is, I'd appreciate you sharing my details with them. I can start straight away. If anyone has any advice to help break out of the AI auto rejections, I'd also appreciate it if you'd contact me via email. Thanks for reading.

Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-pettersson - https://www.somaticbits.com/David_Pettersson_Senior_Creative...
About me: https://www.somaticbits.com
I'm a creative technologist working with AI, emerging tech, and interactive systems. I focus on fast, functional prototyping to test ideas through code.
I work with things like generative AI, real-time rendering, and intelligent interfaces. My strength is turning abstract ideas into working prototypes. I like early-stage work where you need to explore, test, and build quickly.
My background is in software engineering, creative coding, and visual design. I've worked with startups, agencies, and artists to help turn experimental ideas into real products.
What I do:
• Build prototypes using LLMs and generative models
• Add AI to creative workflows and tools
• Try out new interaction models and custom interfaces
• Design systems that mix storytelling, code, and play
• Work closely with teams to guide tech direction and try new ideas
I'm open to roles, consulting, or collaborations on projects that use AI to build new kinds of tools or experiences. If you’re working on something bold or experimental, feel free to reach out.
Have done & can do full-stack work (helped current company grow from three engineers and through acquisition) but lean towards backend/infrastructure in expertise. Currently platform technical lead (IC).
MEng EE & CS blend. (No professional EE experience, but somewhat maintained as a hobby.) 8y post-intern experience in web software.
Looking for something new to sink my teeth into in an organisation with room to grow. Remote opportunities only please, and that I'm eligible for residing in the UK & as a British citizen, though I'm perfectly willing to travel for particular events/big meetings. Cheers!
My preferred next career move is independent contracting. 6-12 months contracts ideally. I will also consider permanent fully remote positions, but only quite senior ones - Staff Engineer / Architect level.
I've been fully remote since 2018 and I intend to keep it that way.
Location: New Zealand, willing to support APAC, APJ, Australia, New Zealand and West Coast US remotely.
Remote: Yes
Willing to relocate: No

- Braid Health (AI radiology): integrated AI outputs into clinician-facing tools
- Toolio (retail SaaS), SellerCrowd (adtech marketplace)
I take products from 0→1: fast MVPs, production-ready SaaS, and AI-powered features that real users rely on. Open to early-stage full-time roles, fractional CTO, or contract positions.
Having worked extensively in the startup ecosystem , I have mastered the art of learning and shipping fast despite having multiple projects based on my past experience working with agile teams. I also love going outside the "technical" space to do things that really moves the product forward like interfacing with clients and customers to know their pain points, converting that into features and determinants in the product architecture.

I am a broadly skilled generalist senior developer. Some specialised roles I had in the past included data engineering and MLOps for a healthcare AI start-up, development of bioinformatics software, and building open data resources. Currently contracting as a bioinformatics software developer for a seed genomics unit of an agritech company, but missing start-ups and again wanting to build something bigger. Let me know if you're hiring!
I'm a full stack software developer with 10+ years of hands-on experience with Ruby on Rails and Javascript. I’ve worked across the spectrum: early startups, high-growth scale ups, and most recently, a large corporate product with a huge Rails monolith and even bigger DB. On the FE side I've worked with a range of libs and frameworks, starting with raw JS a long time ago all the way to Svelte.js more recently.
Have a look at my LI and if you think you're building something where I could help, let me know!
PS: I’d be also very interested in exploring the Go ecosystem, ideally finding a company that uses both Ruby&Go or that'd be willing to bring a pragmatic Rubyist into a Go environment. I’ve always picked up tech quickly and I’m excited to expand my skills.

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!

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 am Peter and am currently finishing up my Ph. D. dissertation/defense in computational topology, focusing on equivalent approximations of curves. Previously, I was a senior software engineer working in diverse areas (Android, Manufacturing, and Embedded Firmware development) and now I am more focused on researching and applying methods to geometric and topological problems and their code. Some of my current Ph. D. work has included devising and implementing novel machine learning techniques for routing and packing, ray tracing for volumetric sphere insertion, and deforming curves and surfaces.
Outside of work, I’m a self taught developer and I’ve spent ~10 years programming, contributing to open source and running a homelab: building Go/Python backends, writing proxies and CLIs, and maintaining Linux/Windows servers, containers (docker, kubernetes), and virtualized setups.
I’m now looking to move into software development full‑time and turn my passion into a living.

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.
- Making 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.

Available for remote work worldwide, very flexible across time zones. Looking for permanent or contract positions. Hi! I’m Olga, an experienced software engineer looking for frontend or fullstack projects.
I have experience building greenfield projects and complex features that “just work,” as well as diving into complex legacy codebases, fixing “unfixable” bugs, and performing major refactoring.
In addition to React/Next.js and Node/Express.js development, I also have experience with cloud-native workflows (Golang + Kubernetes), OpenAI API integration and agentic workflows, native iOS development, and game development. Thanks to my multi-platform experience, I can help you port large products across different platforms.

Backend engineer with experience building agentic and RAG systems. At my previous job, I architected and wrote the LLM platform code powering a suite of LLM-based workflows used by major law firms.
At my current job, I built an LLM-powered document generation system (generating trusts, wills, etc.) and an agentic system for onboarding new clients. I am most productive in Python, but we have been switching to Kotlin at work and I think it's great. I have also been learning Rust and employing it in a side project (generating static sites based off of Google Maps info, also using LLMs).
I have a JD from a top law school and spent time in biglaw, so am particularly suited for building legal tech or adjacent products.
I have spent my entire career at early-stage startups and have had the experience of building from scratch multiple times. No strong preference in terms of size of company, industry, etc. Mostly looking for people who are easy to work with at a company that is building something reasonably useful.
