SEEKING WORK - Remote, travel possible depending on location and duration.
Location: North-east UK
What I do: Backend development / infrastructure
In the past I've run large-scale Debian installations doing devops before it had a name, and been responsible for servers in Antarctica. I have experience with a wide range of different Unix tools and technologies, at various levels of the stack. This gives me the ability—and the perspective—to pick the best combination of tools for any particular project, rather than simply treating everything as a nail because all I have is a hammer.
I specialise in working with non-technical entrepreneurs and providing a "CTO-as-a-service.” I take care of the technical side end-to-end, leaving you free to work on your business, rather than worrying about servers and databases.
Previous work:
* University library data migration project, with a focus on completeness and validation (Clojure, Elixir, Ruby)
* School data processing app (Elixir/Phoenix, PostgreSQL)
