Location: Vancouver, Canada

Remote: Yes

Onsite/Hybrid: Yes. Willing to travel periodically. Hybrid 2-3 days on-site is something I'd be open to.

Willing to Relocate: No

Contract: Yes, incorporated, but open to employment.

Languages/Frameworks (in order of experience: JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, Vue, Vuetify, PrimeVue, MongoDB/Mongoose, Temporal.io, Docker, React <19 (classes and hooks), Angular.js <= 1.8, Swift, SwiftUI, Python

Tooling: Vite, Turbopack, Webpack, Github Actions, Docker, Jira, ESLint, testing-library, Jest AI Tooling: Claude Code in VSCode or Pi w/ qwen3.6-35b-a3b or qwen3.8-27b, Codex, Gemini

Previously: Most recently worked in a hybrid capacity here in Vancouver at Flagler Health. Highlights include the construction of the PDF billing report pipeline, and was responsible for migrating a majority of our Node.js job queue to Temporal.io, during which I was—in some specific cases—able to extract significant performance improvements though better use of concurrency and reducing roundtrips to mongodb. I regularly paired with juniors in a mentorship capacity, and I'd be happy to do so again. I enjoyed working with my immediate team and enjoyed getting out of the house semi-frequently. I have a strong background in frontend, and enjoy messy unglamorous work that nonetheless improves some part of someone's life.

Currently: Touching grass, climbing, learning.

Goal: I'm based out of Vancouver, but happy to discuss different remote arrangements globally or hybrid in Vancouver, Canada. I enjoy working on distributed computing workflows, sticky legacy problems, improving UX and DX, concurrency optimizations, and overall making useful products with a good team.

While I am a regular user of various local models, frontier models, and use them in multiple harnesses, I am not what anyone would call "all in on AI". I'm not lovingly handcrafting every line of code, but I'm not just reviewing output, which is mind-numbing and error-prone. LLMs are tools and I use them like tools.

Absolutely do not contact me if you don't have a concrete role or project to discuss. I'm not interested in data annotation or being posted to yet another slop job board, or a resume builder, or any kind of job recommendation service, or any job where an overwhelming majority of the work is entirely AI-driven.

Previously: As a full-stack engineer, I was most recently hybrid working as part of the Vancouver team at Flagler Health. Highlights include the construction of the PDF billing report pipeline, and was responsible for migrating a majority of our Node.js job queue to Temporal.io, during which I was—in some specific cases—able to extract significant performance improvements by restructuring the concurrency model and optimizing for reduced database access latency. I regularly paired with juniors in a mentorship capacity, and happy to do so again.

Currently: Exploring local-llms, touching grass, working solo on a double-entry accounting solution for small business that may or may not see the light of day

While I am a regular user of various local Qwen models and a variety of harnesses, experienced with Claude Code and Codex, I am not what anyone would call "all in on AI".

Previously: Worked on the frontend team at JLL Technologies inc, formerly Envio Systems, on feature improvement and a big refactoring push from Angular 1.x to React/Typescript/Redux/Jest. We were responsible for a smart commercial building management system dashboard product, and the team was distributed across the EU, NA, and Asia, while I worked remotely from Vancouver.

Currently: Have spent my time learning Swift, SwiftUI while building out a native macOS app, building up my low-level knowledge through the Nand2Tetris course, and learning Nuxt + Django + Tailwind to strengthen my full-stack skills. I have about 8-10 years of experience depending how you count it. I'm just looking to do some decent work over the short or long term, FTE or contract (incorporated), happy to discuss options. I'd be open to both intermediate and senior roles, and am very adaptable, preferring small niche teams.

Weird that you're downvoted, I was just nodding along in agreement, although there is some nuance like not being able to find someone on-site in Abbotsford.

That said, the Job Bank has always been this ridiculous, absolute embarrassment. I've seen other posts on there that are straight up fraud in the sense that someone has submitted a fake posting for another company, leaving an obviously fake email as the contact point. (To which I notified the company)

If you're hiring a frontend or generalist/Swift/Python person, I've been out of work for nearly a year now in Vancouver and am spending all day today applying to random general labor work since the software pursuit has stopped paying off; I don't know ML but am curious. Can find my info in my most recent "Who wants to be hired post". Willing to be on-site or meet up for coffee.

Remote: Yes, somewhat flexible regarding timezones and travel, but do not have a work Visa for the US, though I am an incorporated contractor in Canada.

Willing to Relocate: Not likely, but not impossible

Technologies: JavaScript, TypeScript, Vue, React, Node (largely in-support of frontend build tooling), Angular.js 1.x (ideally only in terms of migrating to something else), Golang (minimal, mostly experimental), Swift/SwiftUI for macOS, GitHub/Jira, Docker, Python (Bit of Django, Flask, etc.. not expert)

Previously responsible for migrating/refactoring a commercial building analytics/automation dashboard product from untyped legacy angular.js and React class components to React hooks/Redux/Typescript with a small EU startup. I'm based out of Vancouver, but happy to discuss different remote arrangements globally or hybrid in Canada. I enjoy working with colleagues, including juniors, on tricky problems, and making useful products. Currently not interested in moving anywhere else permanently.

Since being laid off almost a year ago, I've been working on a native mac personal productivity tool, and learning more about low-level computing through Nand2Tetris.
