I'm an experienced programmer looking to help build Android apps. I've built an app as the lead developer on a team of only 3 which has 10 million downloads on the Google Android Marketplace, worked with a 10 person team on an app with 15 million downloads, and was the sole developer of a third app recently released for a medium-sized company. I have previous experience in contract work building Android apps. I have a plethora of experience in many forms of frontend and backend technologies, but am primarily interested in Android application work at the moment. I would be able to work 20-30 hours per week on a project. I have excellent references on request for previous contract work. matthew.quigley < a t > gmail.com.
Looking to solve interesting JavaScript (or CoffeeScript) problems.
* I wrote the CoffeeScript book for PragProg.

I've also been getting into iBooks Author lately. My first iBook, "CoffeeScript: An Interactive Reference," is already available on iTunes (http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/coffeescript/id498532763?mt=...). If you have a fresh idea, I'd love to collaborate with you on an interactive book.

SEEKING WORK / Freelance - Remote or gigs local to Boston
PHP, mySQL, Javascript/jQuery, HTML/CSS. I've worked in both C# and C++ in the past although I imagine I'm pretty rusty.
I was trained as a neuroscientist before switching to freelance web development, so I'm well acquainted with data and statistical analysis. I enjoy turning piles of data into useful conclusions.
I also enjoy the "softer" side of web development - A/B conversion testing, sales funnels, AdSense optimization, copywriting, SEO voodoo, etc.
I'm primarily a backend/web developer with strengths in PHP, Java and C++. My background consists of stints in the video game industry, co-founding a new media advertising startup, and a collection of client work.
Trained as a design architect, I am exploring ways of applying my expertise in the design of 3D physical space to your products. My work ranges from the design of a major public space in a North American urban center to the planning and design of a professional Football stadium. In all of my projects my work centers on creating an optimal user experience while communicating strong ideas about the identity and brand of my clients.
I want to help you develop your products by applying these skills to your design and user interaction challenges. My skill set lies in communicating complex ideas in intuitive ways to clients using 3D visualisation, video and graphic design techniques. Please see my portfolio ( http://emergentforms.com/projects.html ) for samples of my work.
My name is Victor, a 28 year old developer living in Argentina.
Expertise:
* PHP
* MySQL
* JavaScript
* HTML 4 and 5
* C#
* Unix administration
Secondary skills:
* Java
* DirectX and OpenGL
Background:
I've been programming LAMP based sites for about 9 years and I'm currently working for a very large mobile games developer for 4 years now.
My work in there consists mostly of the following:
* Integrating customer billing for mobile sites, both North American and South American (closed carrier APIs and gateways such as Paypal and Amazon Payments)
* On-call support outside office hours (in which I solve issues with firewalls, programming mistakes made by developers, etc)
* Shop development and design. Basically, these are websites that display content and allow purchases with the aforementioned billing methods.I also focus on improving our custom, in-house developed framework that drives most of the websites.
Previous endeavors include:
* PHP programming and Unix administration at a large South American portal (from 2002 to 2005). It proved to be immensely informative, since we had to deal with a site that gathered several hundred thousand pageviews per day.
* PHP programming and database administration at a credit-report company (from 2005 to 2007). This also proved to be quite helpful, as I had to deal with an ill-maintained IBM Informix database, with poor normalization along with hundreds of millions of rows.
I'm a designer/coder which I hear is rarity. So there you go!
- Front end: HTML 5, CSS, JS/Jquery.
- PHP development. I'd like to do more 5.3 but I'm more weathered in 5.2 due to client demands. Also Codeigniter. But I can pick up most things.
If you're really desperate, I can hit things with Perl too.
I use Mercurial for source control but I'm comfortable with git also. I'm familiar with most modern day practices & processes. I won't say I've been overly-exposed to something like Agile or TDD for instance because I haven't. But I get these things and I learn quick :)
I have worked on pretty much every kind of site imaginable now and would estimate I've built an area of internet roughly the size of Ireland.
My own site is currently temporarily based at http://pitbot.pgkit.com (and something else I threw together at http://applab.pgkit.com). Happy to supply URL's of other recent work (and not so recent too if you like history!)
I'm a passionate programmer and product developer. I've been programming professionally since 2002 and I bring expertise in both front-end and back-end development.
In the last ten years, I've successfully executed freelance, open source and enterprise projects. I have been part of cross-functional and cross-cultural teams and I've had the opportunity to work with some very interesting people and companies.
I enjoy building browser based, real-time apps using innovative technologies including Node.js, Socket.io, Express.js, HTML5, JQuery, SugarJS, CSS3 etc.
Enterprise technologies that interest me are primarily Python and Scala. I've been working with NoSQL databases — MongoDB and Google Data Store APIs in particular.
Other technologies that I've had fun with over the years are Adobe Flex, Java (Spring, Hibernate and popular enterprise frameworks), PHP 5 and related platforms, frameworks and libraries.
I'm a keen open-source enthusiast and my GitHub [1] profile contains contributions to various Node.js, Scala, Python and Adobe Flex projects.
I'm the author of the Apache Maven 3 Cookbook [3] (Packt Publishing, ISBN 978-1-849512-442) which is available for purchase in stores and on Barnes and Nobles, Amazon and Flipkart.
I'm the creator of Review19 [5] - a next generation, real-time project collaboration tool.
We can code anything on the web, all the way up to high performance sites with a complex data architecture that can serve hundreds of thousands of uniques per day. The co-founders' GitHub accounts are:
We're used to taking innovative ideas and making them work with the constraints of the technology. We also have successfully built several enterprise systems, including one that let an ad purchasing company manage nationwide marketing campaigns for all radio, tv, and cable stations in the US. Drop us a line...there's a good chance we'll be able to help!

UK based Web dev generalist. Lots of M$ experience, c#, sql server. Bits of PHP and Rails - enough to put something small together. Ditto for Python.
I moonlight on iOS apps, though I'm by no means a "rockstar".
LAMPing it for fifteen years (I'll gloss over 4-year Java career "blip"). PHP, Rails, a dash of iOS. Could probably still do Perl if you are willing to pay for the regression under hypnosis sessions.

My first computer experience was on a 8088. I learned BASIC, then found a book on assembly language and learned 8086 assembly. (The nop opcode 0x90 is the same as the opcode for xchg ax, ax). Like it or not, Jurassic Park got me interested in UNIX and because we only had 8088 DOS machines, I got to buy the MINIX 1.0 Tannenbaum book, read it cover to.. well quite a bit of code at the back :), and _learn_ about UNIX before I could sit at a tty. Eventually when we got to senior year they let us use SCO UNIX via dumb terminals. That sucked. Thankfully, it was not long before a magazine shipped a copy of Slackware and I got a 486 to run it. Back then, you had to configure X by hand. But once things were configured, it was steady and fast. There were so many programs. Jurassic Park also got me interested in graphics and I learned a lot from magazines. :) On one CD, they shipped a mirror of portions of sunsite with a ton of graphics programs (source code). But many didn't compile on Linux and it required patching C code..
I have to live in India on account of my family being settled here. But I can work on anything, have telecommute experience, and you can talk to references about work quality.
