I've got 14 years of dev experience, 5 remote. I've done full-stack, backend, frontend, and native mobile. Preference for backend or full-stack leaning toward backend. I’d much rather be building APIs and tweaking SQL than building UIs and tweaking CSS, but have done plenty of both.

I'm a senior developer with 11+ years of experience on both web and mobile platforms. My most recent project was a tvOS app in Swift, but I also have quite a bit of JS experience and am very comfortable with React Native. I'm also comfortable working on the API side in Rails, node.js, or potentially even Elixir/Phoenix. I've gotten used to working remotely, but I don't mind going onsite for the right client.

I'm a developer with 11+ years of experience on both web and mobile platforms. Lately I've been doing tvOS apps in Swift, but I also have quite a bit of JS experience and am very comfortable with React Native. In past years I did a lot of server-side development, so I'm also happy to work on your app's API, but I don't specialize in front end web development. I'm also an easy person to work with and I try to be an active listener who understands what clients and customers want and need.

Location: NYC / Seattle / Remote

Remote: Yes

Willing to Relocate: No

Web/mobile developer with 10+ years experience looking primarily for contracts. I've worked with 5-person startups and Fortune 500 companies (and in-between). Most of my experience is web-related (backend and full-stack), but I'm hoping to do more iOS development in the near future and would prefer those types of projects.

Location-wise, I'll be in NYC and Seattle this summer and may be able to do an onsite project in either, though remote / partially-onsite would be best.

Tech: JS (React, Redux, ES6, node.js, etc.), iOS (Swift), Ruby (Rails, Sinatra), Java, SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL).

Web/mobile developer with 10+ years experience, been freelancing for the past 2 years. I've worked with 5-person startups and Fortune 500 companies (and in-between). Most of my experience is web-related (backend and full-stack), but I'm hoping to do more iOS development in the near future and would prefer those types of projects. If you've got some junior devs who need mentoring, I'd be happy to come in and pair program with them for awhile.

Location-wise, I'll be in NYC and Seattle this summer and may be able to accomodate either for an on-site project, though remote / partially-onsite would be best.

SEEKING WORK: NYC, SF, Remote

I've been doing full-stack development since the mid-2000s. Most recently I worked at a well-known web/mobile shop and went independent near the end of last year.

Buzzwords: Rails, React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Angular, golang, Android. Lots more, but those are the most recent / most familiar for me.

I'm usually an NYC-based developer but will be out in the Bay Area this summer from June - August. So remote would be ideal, but on-site during that time frame would work as well.

Buzzwords: 8 years of full-stack development experience. Recent professional experience with Rails, AngularJS, Backbone, Android, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Heroku. Personal experience with Swift/Obj-C, Node.js, Go, MongoDB.

I recently made the switch to freelance after working for a prominent Rails/mobile dev shop. What I can do for you: iterative development, testing, and deployment in any of the above technologies. I'm friendly, good at self-managing, and happy to work alone or augment an existing team. These days, I'd prefer to work on iOS projects, but I'd also be happy to build you a web app / API instead.
