I'm a full-stack developer with 7 years of experience in startups and small teams, focusing on solving real user problems and challenging ideas to ensure their viability. Here are the biggest projects I've worked on + a single feature that demonstrates my impact on product and/or technical chops :
Fanfest – fanfest.vip Community engagement platform for soccer fans. Built a browser-based live streaming engine that lets streamers broadcast directly from their browsers in both 16:9 and 9:16 at 1080p (and lower resolutions), with simultaneous streaming to YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, Instagram, and X.com.
Pequity – pequity.com Compensation management platform for mid-to-large organizations. Built V2 for offer approval chains, reducing complexity and fixing HUGE performance issues. For example, in the worst case scenarion in V1 for a single request it would take 2 minutes to finish. In V2 it's 970ms.
Haekka – haekka.com Security and compliance training integrated with workplace tools. Developed a system for automatically assigning users training based on non-compliant events like exporting sensitive keys they did in AWS/Slack/Gmail.
Flox – flox.app App facilitating social connections by helping friend groups meet. Used Postgis to build an algorithm for auto check-in system for event attendance.
Remote: No, Hybrid/full time onsite preferred
Willing to relocate: Yes

Looking for application security engineer roles. For the past 5 years I have been building security tooling that internal teams can make use of. I work closely with other teams to help improve the security posture of their apps. I help write documentation and host department wide presentations to educate others about web app security and steps they can take to make apps more secure. I took on the responsibility of managing our H1 Bug Bounty Program which previously was failing SLA targets by 10+ months and managed to bring it down to days. I have helped mentor interns and junior developer and also been active in conducting pair programming interviews for future candidates. What you get from me is a go-getter, self-motivated individual. I am always looking to improve not only myself but also my work.

I've been using Go as my primary language for the last seven years, although I don't overly care about the specific language and have experience with a wide variety of tools and languages such as Python, Ruby, PHP, C, JavaScript, Lua, and probably some more. While I've mainly focused on backend in the last few years, I also have written plenty of frontend code over the years, from the "pre-jQuery" days to VueJS.
In the last few years I mainly focused on GoatCounter (https://www.goatcounter.com) with the occasional contract job, but I'm keen to start working on something new for the longer term.
I've got quite a bit of code on my GitHub, so you can take a look at that if you want: https://github.com/arp242/

I am a seasoned AI/ML researcher and leader of cutting-edge research teams. My teams solved problems for both public- and private-sector clients by employing large language models, retrieval augmented generation, and classical, and deep learning techniques. I shepherded many of the projects from the research phase to operational deployment; successfully transitioning a predictive analytics system into production.
I have authored numerous peer-reviewed publications utilizing classical machine learning techniques in high-impact journals and conferences, and my work has garnered over 1,000 citations. I am passionate about advancing AI/ML research and its practical applications in addressing immediate, real-world challenges.
I am looking for a new chapter and to get into more production oriented work where I can see and work with things I have made.

Hey, I'm Cameron! I love building dynamic, high-performance applications—ranging from responsive UIs with React to real-time backend systems that scale.
Most recently, I created Willow, an open-source framework for building Change Data Capture (CDC) pipelines. It leverages Kafka, Debezium, and PostgreSQL to process database changes in real time. You can check it out here: https://willow-cdc.github.io/.
What I bring to the table:
- React & Frontend Expertise: Built component-driven UIs with React, TypeScript, and Material UI - Backend & Data Processing: Designed scalable APIs, database workflows, and event-driven systems - Distributed Systems & Real-Time Data: Worked with Kafka, WebSockets, Redis, and CDC pipelines - DevOps Awareness: Experience with Docker, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, and performance tuning
I'm looking for remote opportunities where I can work on scalable web apps, high-performance APIs, and data-driven workflows.
If that sounds like a fit, let’s chat!

Hi, I'm Nick! I'm a software engineer with experience developing fullstack web applications with a product-focus mindset. I have preference towards working on the backend, but enjoy working on the frontend as well. I most recently created Tumbleweed (https://tumbleweed-cdc.github.io/), an open-source framework for real-time data streaming between microservices. It leverages Kafka and Debezium to connect to a user's PostgreSQL database, and stream data changes in real-time to a microservice consumer. I'm passionate about utilizing my skills to build impactful software, solve complex problems, and love collaborating with others.
