Currently working as a Senior DevOps Engineer / somewhat of a generalist.I've been very interested in the LLM space for a long time, and I'm looking to make a move to a position where I work more as a generalist, and work on some cool LLM / agentic projects.
In the LLM space I'm currently working on a general "What's the best chat app you can make if you don't care how much you spend on inference", and I'm hoping to find a company that's doing something vaguely along those lines.
My preference is for small companies (<10 people)

Hi, I'm Nate. I'm a generalist backend/infra/system kinda guy with ~14 years of experience, mostly into improving workflows and debugging thorny problems but spending a lot of time outside of work tuning up my math skills to get a PhD in Complexity Science, CS, or pure math.I'd love to get into HPC or AI/ML research (not Gen AI). If you're seeking a stable guy who'll grow and develop with your organization (I've never been employed less than four years), I might be the guy.

Hello!I’ve spent 11 years at a bank and two years at a pensions firm. Both places don’t particularly appreciate radical changes or rapid movement.
While at the bank, I helped adopt Python for non-critical tasks and pushed for the production use of scripts for critical systems. My time was mostly spent writing C++, debugging obscure issues, and migrating software to 64-bit and C++11.
At my current role, I’m working on a Blazor site for pension scheme trustees to view aggregate member data and scheme health information.
I’d appreciate a role that has me learning something new, doesn’t try to pigeonhole me once I find a speciality, and prioritises small teams with some degree of autonomy.
Remote: Sure
Willing to relocate: Actively

My last full-time role was being in charge of product at a marketplace company. Since then I've been doing ML research full-time, funded by two novels I wrote that Penguin have published or are publishing. I'm really good at testing and shipping new ideas quickly, with a specific focus on the efficacy of new architectures.
I miss being on a team, and having project-specific focus, so if my portfolio (in the linked resume) is aligned with what you're working on, I'd love to hear from you.
The earlier stage and smaller, the better - I get the most joy from projects where I can see the impact of my research, and where I can take on genuine responsibility for my work's success or failure.
