Re:Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (October 2026) on Thursday October 01, 2026 @02:49PM (#49925546)
Location: Lublin, Poland (CET)

Remote: Yes, remote only. EU citizen, 13 years working with US-based teams

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies: hands-on TypeScript, JavaScript, Vue/Nuxt, Node.js, PHP/Symfony, PostgreSQL, GraphQL. React/Next.js, Python and Kotlin through AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex), checked with tests, review agents and evals.

Senior software engineer, almost 20 years in the industry, 13 of them at Upwork (NASDAQ: UPWK): the reports where freelancers and clients see their hours and money, the time-tracking record behind hourly contracts, and paid-plan growth with A/B tests. Four live stack migrations: Zend → Symfony, jQuery → AngularJS → Vue 2/Nuxt → Vue 3.

DiaPilot is an open-source glucose forecasting app I built for my own type 1 diabetes and use every day. Coding agents wrote most of the code; I directed the product, the physiological model and the verification: adversarial review agents, replay studies on held-out days, mutation-tested suites. https://github.com/obdosok/diapilot-app

Looking for: hands-on senior software / product / full-stack roles in product-focused, AI-native teams. Digital health, diabetes tech and device/sensor data are a special interest. Full-time or long contract.

Senior Software Engineer with 18+ years of experience, including 13 years at Upwork (NASDAQ: UPWK). I worked primarily on reporting area, and marketplace/client products, across four major production migrations: Zend → Symfony and jQuery → Angular → Vue 2/Nuxt → Vue 3.

I was laid off this year. Since then I've been working part-time on an AI-animation platform across Next.js/React + Python/FastAPI/PostgreSQL, and built DiaPilot — an Android glucose-forecasting product for my own type 1 diabetes that I now use every day.

DiaPilot has also been my deepest experiment with AI-native development: coding agents produced much of the implementation while I directed the product, architecture and domain model and built verification around the generated work — including adversarial review agents, reproducible replay studies and mutation-tested suites.

Looking for: hands-on Senior Software / Product / Full-Stack Engineering roles. Particularly interested in product-focused and AI-native teams; digital health / diabetes tech is a special interest.
