What type of work do you do? I run a small consulting company that builds web apps for biotech, and we’re always looking for help. I suffer from similar problems so I’m sympathetic to the situation you described.

SEEKING FREELANCER | Full-stack software developer | Remote

Guide Informatics is a small (two-person) software consulting company. We work with several biotech companies in the genome-editing (CRISPR/Cas9) space, building software that allows their scientists to organize, analyze, and visualize their data.

We're looking to bring on an additional full-stack developer on a part-time or full-time basis (flexible).

Our stack is Python/JavaScript, and experience with the following technologies would be ideal but not required:

* Django

* Vue.js

* Postgres/MySQL

* AWS

Any experience with the following would be a plus but not necessary:

* Data Visualization tools (D3, charts.js, etc)

* Pandas

* R

This is a remote gig but does require that you be legally allowed to work in the US, and we'd prefer if you were in a time zone close to pacific.

If interested, send a resume and a quick intro about yourself to [email protected].

Ah that’s right... totally forgot

I think you mean Keyser Soze - Kobiyashi is the hot dog eating champion

Interesting! I encountered this same exact scammer recently and as soon as he sent the email with all the pictures I knew it was a scam. I was definitely fooled up to that point as well though...

Guide Informatics | Full-stack software developer | PT/FT | Remote

Guide Informatics is a small (one-man) software consulting company. About 3 years ago I was fortunate enough to start working for a computational biologist who consults for several biotech companies in the genome-editing (CRISPR/Cas9) space. Together we build software that allows their scientists to organize, analyze, and visualize their data.

We're at the point now where we need additional help from a software standpoint, and so we're looking to bring someone on to the team.

Our stack is Python/JavaScript, and experience with the following technologies would be ideal:

* Django

* Vue.js

* Postgres/MySQL

* AWS

Any experience with the following would be a plus but not necessary:

* Pandas

* R

* Data Visualization tools (D3, charts.js, etc)

Ideally we'd love to find someone that would eventually want to work for us on a full-time basis (we have way more work than we can handle), but to get started we'd prefer a short term contract or part-time W2 employment (specifics TBD based on several factors).

Guide Informatics | Full-Stack Software Engineer | Full-Time | REMOTE (US Only)

guideinformatics.com

Guide Informatics is a small, remote-first software consultancy that builds applications primarily for Biotech/Genomics companies. All of our current clients are in the CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing space, and our software helps them organize and make sense of their data.

We're looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer with experience building web applications using Python and a modern front-end javascript framework. We use Django and Vue, but for the right candidate specific experience isn't important to us.

This would be a client-facing role with minimal travel requirements (5-10%) and multiple status calls per week with the client(s).

Domain-specific knowledge is not a requirement, but certainly helps. Be prepared to ask a lot of questions and be challenged to understand how the biological entities relate to one another.

Other nice to have skills:

* DevOps (AWS)

* Data Analysis/Visualization

* R

This is a full-time, remote position. If you are a US Resident and can fulfill the client-facing requirements, you can work from wherever you like. Competitive salary with benefits included (Insurance, 401k, PTO, etc).

To apply, please send an introductory email to jordan _at_ guideinformatics dot com.

I'm considering it. I went to public school my entire life but I've spent the better part of the last decade with self-directed learning (programming).

I think it's that combined with my belief that our current educational model is broken and inefficient (as well as articles like these) that makes me want to explore unschooling more. Thanks for sharing these links.

The author hits on a lot of great points here, that I believe speak to a larger theme: there's a ton of undervalued programming talent out there and finding that talent can give your company a huge leg-up on the market.

If only the approval process didn't take 250x as long as the actual building of the units...

That's the sad reality of bay area housing in 2018. However, if they keep building enough units like these, prices should eventually become less insane.

Thanks for the data-point. Everyone seems to like the build quality, which is more important to me than ease of use with Linux. I figure I'm going to have to roll up my sleeves to get it working the way I want, anyways.
