SEEKING WORK | No Fixed Abode, but I’m used to overlapping with NYC/EST mornings

I solve hard back-end problems, in TypeScript/NodeJS or Perl, with a particular love of making test-suites better and building tooling that’ll make your dev team more effective. I also know at least a little bit about many other useful things (React, AWS, Python, XSLT, Scrum, Postgres, etc etc).

“I worked with many great engineers, and many are truly great at what they do. Peter is definitely one of the best ones I’ve worked with. He is a true staff-level engineer / architect … He will distill the problem to its very essence, and come up with a solution that truly solves the problem at its core, often in a truly elegant way. I’ve seen him do it time and again … truly raised the bar on both automation quality, our technical quality, and helped solve some really complex challenges for us”

I have 20 years commercial experience, a formal software engineering degree from Oxford (placed 1st in my class, 2016), a business degree from Cambridge (2023), have managed decent-sized teams before, and as a colleague I’m pleasant, kind, and engaged.

$150/hour, up to 20 hours a week, but I can ramp up or down as needed. If I might be the right shape, reach out, worst-case scenario is a Zoom call. happy.moon7785@fastmail.com
