SEEKING WORK - London, UK or remote
I'm a full-stack web developer with a slight focus on the backend and a deep appreciation for product. I'm fluent with PHP, Python, Ruby, and JavaScript as well as all the usual web stuff. Ideally I'd like to work with a small company looking for a medium-term boost in their productivity, or needing some outside guidance on their architecture/product plans.
Most recently I've worked with Silicon Milkroundabout, a company that hosts a jobs fair for startups every 6 months. Because they go dormant between events they don't have any full-time developers. I built new features, extended old ones, and helped the business figure out a longer-term roadmap and kept the product on track. Another recent project is <a href="http://nopudding.com/" > (which hit the HN frontpage). It's a guide to veggie/vegan places to eat in London, built in Ruby on Rails with a decent chunk of CoffeeScript. It uses responsive design to work nicely on mobiles as well as desktops.
I'm available for an immediate start, though I'm talking to a few people so I don't know how long that will be true for. Ideally I'd like a 2-3 month contract based in an office with the people I'm working with, but I'm happy to work remotely or for a different-length engagement too.
