With a background as a founding engineer, team lead and manager, I bring the expertise and experience you need to go from concept to production. While I have worked in organisations ranging from tiny through huge, my forte is working in smaller teams with meaningful technical challenges, where I specialise in delivering robust high-performance minimal-dependency solutions that operate unattended for months and years. I have built teams from the ground up, creating productive and inviting teams with clear goals and well-functioning processes.
In short, my experience can be summarised as:
◆ 20 years as a programmer, developer and architect;
◆ 10 years in roles leading and mentoring teams and individuals; and
◆ 5+ years in 100% remote mode.
I work best in small teams where communication paths are short, where there is—by necessity—minimal overhead and where responsibilities are clear. You are primarily concerned with what we can build together, and not with the technical details. While I am looking for interesting technical problems, you are looking for someone to take responsibility for the whole solution.
I am open to discussing part-time contracts and/or non-standard arrangements.
