I am US citizen returning to US by the end of the year. I have worked the past 8 years the country of Vanuatu as a solo-software engineer while I waited for my wife to obtain her US visa and then covid kept us in Vanuatu longer than expected. I've built a variety of systems from a Netflix clone for a local ISP including in-house transcoding pipelines (internet too expensive/bandwidth too limited for customers to access real Netflix), a linear TV channel for a local TV broadcaster with automatic playlist building/solving, a booking system for international tourism to Vanuatu, a Foursquare-esque PWA for local businesses, a license plate detection and collection app, a logistics and assets management system for local freight company and many other web scrapers and other projects for fun.

As a result, I've had a well rounded background of experience, worked with a lot of on-premise hardware, various technologies and was responsible for everything top to bottom which means to say finding clients, investigating requirements, design and implementation and deployment was on me.

I'm hoping to find a rewarding and challenging project to work on in the States and to join a team of like minded software engineers. I also like kava.
