LoganDark

Location: US Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: No Email: logandark@logandark.net Technologies: I am full-stack and have been almost everywhere in the consumer market: - Rust, TypeScript/JavaScript/Node.js/Bun/Deno, Swift/Obj-C, C/C++, Python, Go, C# - Windows, Linux desktop/server, macOS/iOS, some BSD (mostly from macOS) - Tokio/Rayon, React.js/Svelte/Angular, SwiftUI/some AppKit, wxWidgets, Asyncio/Twisted - Desktop, embedded, web, backend, some mobile (mostly iOS) - Burn, GGML, NumPy, some JAX, some Mojo, some MLX Rust is definitely my favorite and TypeScript is up there as well. I have used PHP, Scala, Haxe, Haskell and some others but would not call myself proficient in them. I could pick them up for a role though. I am a very quick learner. I have been doing this for over 10 years & have a beefy personal machine. I am available to interview immediately and can start immediately. Contact me with anything.

Stratoscope

Location: Menlo Park, CA Remote: Yes, or hybrid if nearby Willing to relocate: Possibly Technologies: Python, Ruby, C, C++, C#, JavaScript, TypeScript, PowerShell, Flask, SQL, PostGIS, Shapely, Unity, Unreal Engine, multiple assembly/machine languages, Windows user code and kernel drivers, Google Maps and other map APIs, geographic and airspace data Résumé/CV: https://www.geary.com/resume.html or https://www.geary.com/resume.pdf and https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelgeary/ Email: mike@geary.com Hi, I'm Michael Geary. I've programmed in many languages and environments over the years. Some of my current interests are: • Developer experience. I love helping my fellow developers solve problems, and building tools to make their jobs easier and more enjoyable. • Aviation and geographic data. For example, airspace and obstacle data importers for Wing; election results and voter information maps for Google; many interactive maps for other companies. • Hardware interfacing. In a way, I am a "full stack" developer, but my stack may involve a front end to a piece of hardware rather than the cloud. I first got into programming via ham radio, so RF hardware remains an interest. • Designing and building APIs. Too often an API is designed by exposing the internals of whatever system provides the API. My philosophy is the opposite: start with the apps. I like to build a series of sample apps before starting on the API. This way I can imagine what API will make those apps and others like them easy to build. • Talk with users! I don't like to sit in a back room cranking out code. I want to make sure it's the right code for what my users need, and that it's easy to maintain and improve as we learn more about what they want. Open to full time or contract. I look forward to talking with you!
