SEEKING WORK | NYC (or Remote) | 25+ Years Experience Startup Engineer

Contractor with decades of startup experience available for early stage startups or greenfield projects. Frontend, backend, cdevops, cloud, ux/ui design, consumer apis, data pipelines, project management, security, I've done it all.

For equity-conscious founders who are in the process of finding a cofounder, founding engineer or building a team but don't want to sacrifice velocity, I can come in as a "one man solution" that can set up servers and infrastructure, build out your MVP, establish processes, conduct interviews and provide unique insight into how stay focused on your core business proposition, how to pitch to tech-savvy investors and how to scale as users and investment come in.

If you're in or near New York City, I'm in Manhattan. Let's meet for a coffee and talk about what you're building. And if not I'm always available for a video chat.

SEEKING WORK

Location: Lyon, France

Remote: Yes

Email: achenet@fastmail.com

I'm an experienced backend developer currently working for a large web hosting company, looking for a nights and weekends gig to learn new things and make a bit of spare cash.

I've got a fair amount of web development experience, I've written a ton of Go for my day job, I'm quite familiar with Postgres and MySQL and I've played around with Rust, Elixir, Zig, and C.

Because my primary motivation is learning, I have a "pay what you'd like" pricing scheme for my freelance work.

You contact me with a project, and if I accept it, you only pay me if I deliver something that has helped you, and you chose a price that reflects how much my work has helped you.

The one thing I do want, however, is feedback. If you didn't like it, you have to tell me why, with as much detail as possible. If you really liked it, I'd also appreciate you taking the time to tell me what your favorite parts were.

In terms of tasks, I'm open to anything, I'm mostly doing this to learn (although, obviously, money is nice too ^_^)
