I am a designer with 6+ years of experience across product design, UI/UX, and digital product development. I have worked on real products across healthcare, music, fintech, logistics, and health tech, taking ideas from early-stage thinking through to shipped, usable experiences.
I enjoy working on complex problems, especially the kind that take time to understand properly and have meaningful, rewarding outcomes when solved well. I am comfortable working across startup environments and more established organisations, and I adapt quickly to different team structures and product stages.
As a designer, I work across the full process from discovery and problem framing through to interface design and delivery. I often take on multiple responsibilities within teams and focus on building clear, usable, and thoughtful product experiences.
I am currently looking for the right role where I can contribute strongly, work with good teams, and keep building products that actually solve real problems.

I'm very passionate about making sure that the users get a great user experience, and that the quality of the products my team ships are top noch.
Areas I've worked in before and still feel passionate about are: Healthcare, Developer Experience / Developer tools, Multimedia, Productivity Software.
I have worked with teams from early startups to FAANG companies, and while I have no preference I'd work best in a role where I can be involved in product and design discussions as well as engineering ones too.
In my free time lately I've been self-hosting in my own homelab via Proxmox, and building passion projects in Elixir.
Please reach out if you think I'd be a great fit for a team you are hiring for!

Senior backend engineer available for contract, fractional, contract-to-hire, or full-time opportunities. I have 30+ years of experience building and operating production systems across startups, SaaS, media, financial services, telecom, and public safety domains. I've worked in both early-stage and growth-stage companies and enjoy owning systems end-to-end, from architecture and implementation through deployment and operations. For the past 13 years I've focused primarily on Ruby on Rails backend platforms, APIs, PostgreSQL, cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP), and production reliability. My experience includes backend architecture, distributed systems, database performance tuning, cloud migrations, DevOps ownership, and operating customer-facing systems in production. I enjoy helping teams solve scaling, reliability, modernization, and operational challenges. Particularly interested in backend, platform, infrastructure, and data-intensive systems, though I'm comfortable contributing across the stack when needed. Available to help with Rails modernization, production reliability, cloud migrations, PostgreSQL performance tuning, backend platform development, and API-heavy applications.

Hi, I'm Branko. I am looking for a position in a small team where I can wear multiple hats: building features, handling support tickets, writing documentation, SEO.
I have an engineering degree in Geodesy/GIS and 5+ years of customer support experience. I've developed products like a text analysis tool, a fishing logbook app, and an app for easing certain customer support tasks (links on website).
If you need someone who is just as comfortable handling support and documentation as they are writing code, I'd love to chat.
Technologies: Python, Go, PostgreSQL, Docker, Linux, AWS, Nginx, Pytorch, MERN, AI coding and open to learn

Recent CS masters graduate, looking for opportunities starting in September. My background is in programming language theory (particularly logic/relational programming), so would be very happy to work with functional languages, compilers, automated reasoning, and/or formal verification. I also have a background in music (I'm a published composer!) so particularly interested in audio/music-related stuff as well. Curious to learn more about embedded/systems stuff. I've also done full-stack work across databases/cloud infrastructure/web APIs/frontends, and independently released a commercial music production plugin (Pivotuner, more info on my website).
