Re:Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (September 2026) on Saturday September 12, 2026 @02:28AM (#49669488)
Location: Chicago, IL

Remote: Yes — US

Willing to relocate: Open to the right opportunity

Technologies: Python, AWS, Azure, Terraform, Docker, CI/CD, REST APIs, distributed systems, SQL, data/ETL pipelines, SageMaker, PyTorch, ML/AI infrastructure

Résumé/CV: Available upon request

Email: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

Senior software/platform engineer with experience across startups, consulting, and enterprise environments. Most recently led an MLOps engagement for a Tier-1 financial services client, owning architecture and technical planning for production ML infrastructure. Previously built production cloud/data platforms at Torc Robotics and Moody’s, and have also worked as a fractional technology leader and founding engineer for an early-stage e-commerce startup.

I’m strongest in roles with broad technical ownership — backend/platform engineering, cloud infrastructure, production ML/AI systems, and taking ambiguous problems from architecture through implementation. I’m also comfortable working directly with clients and founders, leading technical discovery, and owning engagements end-to-end.

Looking for senior/staff software, platform, MLOps/ML infrastructure, or forward-deployed engineering opportunities.

Austin — would love to connect. I’m a longtime competitive tennis player and a huge fan of the sport, so SwingVision sits at a pretty unique intersection of my personal and professional interests.

I recently wrapped up engagements as the technical lead for an MLOps initiative at a large consulting firm and as fractional Director of Technology for an early-stage mobile app startup. The Head of ML role may not be the exact fit, but if you have a need for someone senior on the ML infrastructure/MLOps/engineering side, I’d be very interested in chatting.

Is there a good email where I could send over my resume and some more background?
