SEEKING WORK - Remote (from USA, currently in Europe)
Offering a unique, unusual, but useful set of skills:
- Scraping: Lots of experience in creating high volume, high speed scrapers for any data source, whether on the web or in an app (after reverse engineering it).
- Reverse engineering: Experienced reverse engineering iOS apps, whether to gain insights into the protocols used, identify how an app is doing something, or review the security of your own app.
- Proxy servers: Need a custom setup of proxy servers for scraping? I can help. I have relationships with multiple data centers and can get you cheap deals on IP addresses. I can also setup custom rule-based proxies (i.e. rotate IP every minute, change IP based on header, auto-solve CAPTCHA, route through Tor, etc)
- Cloud architect: Experienced with both AWS/EC2 and Google Cloud. Especially good at setting up AWS VPC.
- parse-server: I maintain the python library for parse-server (<a href="), and have also setup parse-server multiple times on AWS, google cloud, and locally.
- VPN setup: Need a VPN for personal use or your business? Need a VPN to connect to your VPC? Or maybe some custom networking logic? I can help.
- fullstack dev - For the right project I am interested in fullstack development, but prefer scopes limiting development time to a few weeks.
- API integration in Python or nodejs - experience with stripe, PayPal, Amazon SES, various others.
- server setup / general sysadmin - very experienced with the most common server stacks, including Nginx, docker, redis, and others. If you need a production server setup and are feeling lost, I can help you.
Skills: Python (flask, bottle), Javascript (node, express), Bash, MySQL, Postgres, Mongo, parse-server, squidproxy, docker, redis, zeromq, html/css/basic frontend JS, nginx, haproxy, dns, iptables
Platforms: AWS/ec2, google cloud, parse, digitalocean, bare metal
