Tetraslam 4/2/2025|
I'm an ML researcher @ MIT and a student at Northeastern University majoring in CS and Linguistics. I've built large-scale, efficient software for my neuromechanics and quantum photonics labs, for satellites, and for cloud computing startups. I'm looking for internships (4 months full-time, May - August) in systems engineering, ML, full-stack, and backend engineering. My most recent project: I built https://github.com/tetraslam/SHFLA and won the MIT Media Lab hackathon. It hit the front page of HN, and got me demo requests from Stephen Wolfram, David Sinclair, Joscha Bach, and Suno AI.

Technologies: Python, Zig, C, C++, Javascript, Linux, Supabase, Redis, Pytorch, Slurm, CUDA, HPC, FastAPI, Embedded Linux, Tinygrad, Concurrency, Triton, Bash, Typescript, NextJS, TailwindCSS, Langchain

I am a data engineer and a broadly skilled generalist senior developer - and in the past, a bioinformatician.

Bio summary: After a graduating with a maths degree in 2014 and an early career role in finance, I found my path to data engineering in bioinformatics in 2016, initially as a full stack developer in a research institute and then taking on increasingly data focused work. I worked in life sciences for many years, until in 2023 I joined a healthcare startup, which for an exciting year and a half was a great opportunity to experiment with 'modern practice' like Databricks and integrating LLMs. Looking for new opportunities to engage in meaningful work.

From my bioinformatics and data engineer experience, I'm good at interfacing with researchers and turning ideas and prototypes into working products: developing data flow workflows, evaluating performance of models, providing interfaces and entry points for clients, and more.

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of contributing to significant projects in academic, commercial, and non-profit settings. If my profile or any of the technologies listed resonate with you, feel free to reach out via email!

Location: Vermont, USA

Remote: On-site, Hybrid, or Remote

Willing to relocate: Yes

Technologies: Jira, Confluence, Git/GitHub, SCRUM, PostgreSQL, Linux, Postman, Bash.

I have also used Python, Rust, JavaScript, TypeScript, and HTML/CSS but I would call myself an "advanced beginner".

Résumé/CV: Upon request

Email: hackernewsjob@outlook.com

I am interested in switching from my current role as a QA Tester to a job as a junior Web Developer.

My day-to-day covers:

1. Performing unit and E2E tests.

2. Having intimate knowledge of in-house products made for client services (xyz as a service)

3. Reviewing and approving code changes (JS, TS, Rust, Python, C#, and HCL)

4. Filing bug reports during tests

5. Effective communication with: devs, clients, and end users on an ongoing basis

6. Attend and prese at: stand ups, demos, sprints, etc.

I have worked in QA for 3 years, and more broadly in IT for 14 years. In that time I have done everything from building networks in rugged environments, to help desk, to enterprise patch management, to cybersecurity, to ITAM.

I spent the last year building the entire stack for a hardware deeptech recent YC grad - backend, frontend, PCBs, firmware, infra, etc, as a one man dev team. I'm looking for somewhere with experienced hackers to learn from and somewhere I can wear a lot of hats. Prefer hardware (especially robotics - just built myself a robot arm to dive into it) but open to any hard + fun problems!

About Me: I'm a full stack developer, leaning towards the front end, with 3+ years of web dev experience plus some mobile experience. I also have some game dev experience in Unity and Unreal Engine. Along with having experience in the technologies listed above, I've recently been learning Three.js and D3.

I'm actively seeking full-time or part-time opportunities, plus I have experience in both established companies and early-stage startups. Even if it's for an early stage startup I'm flexible with discussing a reasonable hourly salary.

I'm open to a lot of different industries, and some areas that I'm particularly interested in developing for include health care, travel, hospitality, ed tech, clean tech, game dev, and anything VR or AR related.

Hi, I'm Nate. I've been a DevOps/Platform engineer for ~10 years and was a Mac/iOS app developer before that. My background is broad and strange, I'm less of a t-shaped person than a comb-shaped guy with a bunch of weird deep spikes and more than a few weird gaps.

I want to move into machine learning and AI, ideally HPC and/or scientific/research computing. My plan is to move into MLOps, then move from there into HPC, and my longterm goal (5-10 years) is to move into deep tech research and possibly get my PhD in CS or math (somewhere in the area of topology/manifolds if the latter).

I recently had a come-to-$DEITY moment and I'm taking a week off work to do a deep-dive on Slurm and as many other topics as I can cram into each day. I'm new in this space and I have a lot to learn, but I'm really ambitious and looking for a place that won't slow me down.

Hey, I’m June, I am a backend-focused software engineer with 5+ years of experience building APIs, services, and scalable systems using Python and cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, and Azure. I enjoy working on clean, reliable backend architecture and solving problems that make systems more efficient and maintainable.

Lately, I’ve been focused on data-heavy systems, distributed architectures, and improving developer workflows. I'm currently on an H1B visa and would need support with the transfer.

Outside of work, I’m into film and digital photography, and I spend my downtime playing Destiny 2 and Helldivers 2. If you’re working on something interesting, I’d love to connect!
