Hi all,

From time to time I have need for one or two extra hands (or, would that be pairs of hands?) on larger projects. Specifically, am looking for Clojure developers that'd be interested in occasional adhoc/freelance development work.

Most of my work is on the web application side, but it can vary.

What I'd like to ask is this: if anyone's interested, drop me an email (ptaoussanis at taoensso.com) with some basic info including:
  • Contact details (would prefer an international telephone number also if possible).
  • Your experience / informal CV (open-source stuff is my preferred reference, especially if it's Clojure-based).
  • Any particular areas of interest/expertise (e.g. you especially want to work with Datomic, backend services, Clojurescript, whatever).
  • Your rate + how negotiable it'd be and/or how it'd scale with longer-term jobs.
I can then keep your details on file and give an occasional shout if something comes up that I could potentially use you for.

Whole thing'd be about as informal as it gets: terms will vary based on the particular job, but I'll include all of that in the email so you can decide if/when something grabs your fancy.

Cheers!

- Peter (taoensso.com)

Hi Peter,

I might be interested. I am a PhD candidate in Munich, where are you based?

Regards,

Laszlo Török

Just occurs to me: it'd probably also be useful if you post some of your details here in case anyone else is also looking for devs.

Hi Laszlo, 

Actually good point - I should clarify: all the work would be completely remote. I'll normally work through some combination of GitHub, Basecamp + Trello.

Payment would be through PayPal.

Hi Peter,

(I'm going to follow your suggestion and reply publicly.)

I would be interested in collaborating with you. You'll find my contact details and a summary of my experience in xavi.caballe.pro .

I come from the Rails world (I'm also an ex-Objective-C, ex-Java, and ex-Perl developer). I still work with Rails but my current language of choice is Clojure.

My main open-source contribution is noir-auth-app, a base web app with authentication, https://github.com/xavi/noir-auth-app . This is a byproduct of a side-project that I'm developing in Clojure. Also, recently I worked for a month in an all-Clojure shop doing the full-stack development (Clojure + ClojureScript + Datomic) of a new feature.

I'm more a generalist and I am happy working both in the back-end and the front-end. As for databases, I'm comfortable with SQL, but with Clojure I've only worked with MongoDB and Datomic for now.

I'm based in Barcelona and my rate is €25/hr but I'm open to negotiate it.

Cheers!

Hi Xavi, thanks for getting in touch. Really sorry for taking forever to get back to you about this!

I've got your details on file now (thanks for that!). Will get in touch if any projects come up for which I think I could use you. In that case I'll send you an email with the project details (what I need, what the timeframe is, payment info, etc.) - and you can get back to me if you're interested.

All the best, cheers!

Hi Peter, 

Your suggestion seems like a good one. I'm available for freelancing roles, and am also interested in collaborating with you. I've made a summary of my offerings at Interruptsoftware.caI'm currently a Clojure Software Developer with over 12 years experience architecting and building enterprise applications from end-to-end. I've had clients from Lehman Brothers & Bank of Montreal, to Rogers & Conde Nast. My experience includes delivering stable, robust software architectures on time and on budget. 

I'm very passionate about technology. My ethos is "I want to program as fast as I think". You can see my list of languages and technologies in my resumeBut broadly, I've played with Neural Networks, as seen in this github project. As well, I've built 2 financial applications; i) An open bookkeeping system ( see Bkeeping.com ), and ii) a closed Trading application ( see below screenshots (a private code viewing can be arranged) ). Again, more of my OSS projects can be seen in my resume and github accountI believe my value lies in my ability to solve very difficult problems, delivering best-of-breed software. 

Anyways, I'm based in Toronto, and keen to find remote work with a good project and team. Thanks. 


Cheers

Tim Washington

Hi everyone,

I am the technical lead for a sport betting platform based in Nigeria. 

We are in the process of re-writing our community site (fanalysis.net) and betting platform(playcenter.fanalysis.net).

We intend to use clojure for the development. So far we have recruited two local developers but need at least three other developers to work on the project. We are also working with a designer based in Sweden.

Kindly send me a mail if you are interested; links to past works, area of expertise/interest,hourly rate would be highly appreciated.

Thank you.
