from the self-post dept.

I am a very senior (both professionally and age-wise). My job looks safe for now, but who knows what is going to happen with the country, with the economy, with software development... There are 2 main questions I am contemplating every day: 1) where to move in terms of professional skills and 2) how to save savings (even not that big in my case). Looks to me all books we read related to these...

Location: Los Angeles, CA Remote: yes Willing to relocate: no Technologies: c# / .NET, SQL server, Python, AI/ML , microservices and API in general Résumé/CV: upon request Email: [email protected] I am a senior back-end engineer with nearly 30 years of industry experience, backed by a rigorous mathematical education in Russia. Throughout my career, I have consistently chosen roles that required deep algorithmic thinking and exposure to advanced computational problems. My background includes implementing neural networks, genetic algorithms, and other classical AI techniques long before they became mainstream.

Currently, I am rapidly up-skilling in modern machine learning and AI frameworks while working on two personal projects. My plan is to be fully interview-ready within the next 3-4 months, although I am confident I can immediately contribute in a real-world engineering role today. I bring decades of experience in complex systems, high-performance backend development, and a disciplinarily mathematical approach to software engineering and AI.
