Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (July 2025)

Please lead with either SEEKING WORK or SEEKING FREELANCER, your location, and whether remote work is a possibility.

Please only post if you are personally looking to hire a freelancer or work as one. Agencies, recruiters, job boards, and so on, are off topic here.

SEEKING WORK | Dublin, IE | Fully Remote (global hours)

I'm a computer engineer with hands-on experience in embedded systems, cloud infrastructure, and full-stack web development. Most recently, I co-founded a pharma-tech startup, where I led the development of real-time data infrastructure, visualization and analytics on a regulated cloud platform.

Selected projects:

- Autonomous drone delivery systems for last-mile food logistics

- BMC firmware for enterprise storage deployed across major data centers worldwide

- Robotics firmware powering large-scale warehouse automation

- Managed Kubernetes PaaS for automated, multi-tenant application deployment

I also help startups go from zero to launch in a week - taking rough ideas and turning them into clean, performant, production-ready tools.

If you have a project or challenge that matches, feel free to reach out - I’m happy to discuss how I can help.

SEEKING WORK | Takoma Park, MD | Remote | Product Strategy & AI/UX Innovation

Hey, I was #1 on HN last month - maybe you saw my white paper on the small world of English? That analysis mapped 110M+ semantic connections across 1.5M+ words. I've now turned that data into a daily word game that explores how humans naturally connect ideas.

This is what I do: transform complex systems into experiences people love.

Previously: Evolved SpicyNodes from academic visualization to 40M users. Transformed NIST timing software into time.gov. Converted medical AI research into patient tools serving 1.5M users. PI on $295K NSF SBIR for semantic innovation.

Core expertise: Taking technically sophisticated systems and creating intuitive interfaces that preserve depth while enabling broad adoption. From atomic clocks to language models.

Available for: VP Product/CPO roles, founding product positions, strategic advisory
