I've been cast away on a remote tropical island for the past 10 years where I have been building my skills as a self-starting & self-reliant full stack engineer. I worked as a solo-developer building solutions for my clients that varied from Offline-first PWA applications for a inter-island shipping company to a local self-hosted Netflix clone for an ISP to a full fledged linear TV station platform for another client and many more.

I've cut my teeth on a variety of challenges and across the tech stack and now that I have returned to the US of A I want to join your team!

Hello, my name is Michael Toohig, I have recently returned to the United States after working the past decade in the South Pacific island nation of Vanuatu. I worked on a dozen greenfield projects from whiteboarding to deployment as a solo-developer or the sole technical member of some teams. I've worked with many different technologies and built a variety of products and subsequently have become a strong generalist covering backend, frontend and devOps but a preference for backend work.

Looking for any kind of role with preference for backend but I would prefer a field that touches upon a topic that interests me such as drones, computer vision, GIS, or services that benefit remote or developing markets.

I am a full stack developer with preference for backend work nearing a decade of professional experience. Recently repatriated to the USA after my wife got her green card last April. Prior was working in my wife's home country and had my own consultancy building various software solutions for local businesses and for contracts. I worked from whiteboard to deployment and comfortable up and down the stack from devops to frontend. I've built a number of systems from web scrapers, GIS applications, VOD streaming services, data processing pipelines and offline-first progressive web apps.

Full-stack developer (Python/Flask/FastAPI & Typescript/Vue) and previous independent contractor with nearly a decade of experience creating software solutions. My wife just got her green card so I uprooted the family from the Republic of Vanuatu and moved back to my home in the States and looking for a place to use my skills and grow further.

My past has given me a broad and unique skillset which makes it hard to write concisely but I can design projects and deploy them and everything in between and I have experience with streaming, distributed systems, a lot web dev stuff, PWA & offline-first applications, some CV and AI/ML experience including deploying, web scraping, GIS, and some minimal hardware hacking.

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.

Well I have to appreciate the design choice since where I am internet is slow and unreliable. I couldn't imagine having to fetch each photo over the internet just to browse from my own home network.

But there should be a feature to at least sync to a cloud service for backup purposes.

Not that I support this program, because I don't know much about it to decide, but I know from where I live now if you don't have electricity then you are living a very simple life and probably aren't using that much cash each week anyways.

So, the amount allowed to be withdrawn sounds small but it might not affect those without electricity. Plus, if they don't have electricity there is no ATM and therefore they have all their cash on hand as I know many stories of remote island villages where people just keep money in their house. The best stories are of those who are truly remote but making absolute bank selling kava roots and they come down to the major town and buy new Toyota trucks in all cash stuffed into 25kg bags of rice.
