Hi! I have been working 12+ years in software engineering and 5+ years in Elixir; Focus on backend and systems development. I've been remote for 7+ years.

I would describe myself as an engineer with a product and business sense.

My experience spans multiple sectors, including enterprise software, staffing solutions, and most recently, financial technology in the realm of payments.

One of my roles was as a team lead in a (later) YC backed startup.

My preference is to continue to work primarily with Elixir, though I'm open to explore other opportunities.

I would love to explore how I can add value to your project, let's talk!

I guess you'd have to dig quite a deep trench for modern tanks.

They should just ban all interesting content already so creators finally move to better platforms some of which are probably yet to be created. Watching YouTube these days without adblocker is just painful, not to mention the broken copyright claim system which has to be the way it is partly because YouTube is just too big.

I'm a generalist with 8+ years of experience on Backend and DevOps who's been working remotely with distributed teams for the past 3 years including for a YC backed startup. I would love to continue working with Elixir and bring with me a bit less than 2 years of production experience on a good sized Elixir project.

I wonder if maybe future space dwelling people will look at living on planets like we do at living in caves.

What I feel would be missing for me is the scale and freedom of living on an earth like planet. It might be different if one is born and raised on a space station.

I much prefer the new chassis simply because it's noticeably less of a pain to carry around while retaining the same performance.

I do hope the next chassis will fix the keyboard and maybe even add back the sd-card reader, not to mention introduce top spec non-touchbar models.

Most recently spent ~2 years as Team Lead doing Backend and DevOps on a Elixir/NodeJS/Serverless SaaS product (YCS17).

I have experience in helping teams plan, build and ship projects from scratch. Looking to continue with Elixir/Backend as a base if possible and move into crypto/fin-tech.

Would consider a technical co-founder position for the right product, some things I'm interested in: crypto/micro-transactions, social/collaboration, marketplaces

Hi there, are you looking for someone with experience in Elixir, DevOps and Backend to work on your project and help push it to production and/or improve DevOps processes? Is your stack anything like the list of technologies above?

I'm in luck then since I'm probably targeting a narrow niche here :)

A slice of me in tech: I strive for simple over sophisticated especially when just starting out, I take system and data/db architecture serious bc I believe a solid foundation is a must for building a good system, I like using work queues for better robustness and decoupling, when it comes to scaling parts of a system I'll take serverless over a microservice any day if the tasks is suited for serverless.

Most recently I spent ~2 years as tech lead on a SaaS product with Elixir/NodeJS codebase which we took from zero through YCS17 to production. I hope to put some of that experience to good use by helping others do the same.

The actual keyboard language is irrelevant since the layout is defined in software. You can just change the layout to US or UK and learn to touch type it. The US layout is lot nicer if you write a lot of code in my opinion.

You can also set up multiple layouts and switch via OS shortcut when needed.

Realizing you don't need an excuse to do what you like doing.

Taking a moment to relax and gaze at the stars or enjoy a coffee on your own just sitting there lost in thought is as good an activity as having a smoke. I really don't see people judging other people for it.

Or if you're actually looking for an activity not an excuse, just thinking about a interesting topic/problem and writing down the thoughts going through your head on your phone (or even better onto a piece of paper/notepad, no interruptions) can be an very satisfying activity I found out.

Really helps me to focus on whatever I'm thinking about too.
