I am often called upon to do esoteric, non-Web development tasks; be it integrating disparate systems or helping a business out with failing projects by picking up the slack and learning tools and domain knowledge on the fly.
I am also more than willing to work with non-Python languages.

SEEKING FREELANCER - remote - One-time Wordpress hosting provider switch and migration help needed.
I need help choosing a more appropriate WordPress host and migrating my three sites to the new host. I currently use WP Engine and pay $99/month for three sties with less than 1,000 visitors per month combined.
Two of the sites are very small and straightforward blogs. They are czstrong.com and theladude.com
The other site is my businesses website - cpustorage.com. I don't think it's very complex either.
The Job:
* Recommend a new hosting solution that is less than $50/month. The cheaper the better, as long as it's reliable and easy to manage and deploy to.
* Migrate my three websites to the new provider.
* Setup SSL on the signup page of cpustorage.com
* Teach me how to manage the site. I currently use Git Push to Deploy, so if the new host had that that'd be nice. Or, feel free to teach me an even easier way to deploy!
I would like to pay a flat-fee for the whole project. I don't care if it just takes you a couple hours to do it. I'm not familiar with how much I should be paying for this, so please provide me with a quote.
If you'd like to help me with this project, please email me with your quote and telling me a bit about your relevant experience. I created these three sites myself and set them all up so I can help you get this done as efficiently as possible.
Best suited working with developers who know they need better design but don't know how to get from A to B. Also good working with design/dev/consulting agencies (experience with everything from two man shops to bigger firms like McKinsey and Edelman).
All work is done in the browser, meaning no time is wasted on Photoshop back-and-forth. Iteration is quick and actionable for everyone involved.
Specific skills: HTML, CSS, JavaScript.
Can develop in: Meteor, WordPress.
Familiar with: Ruby on Rails (asset pipeline) and Django.
All work is vc'd with Git. Comfortable working in an existing repo or starting from scratch.
I work on a day rate @ $600/day (8 hours). Also willing to bid on projects flat if the scope is both reasonable/fixed.
SEEKING WORK - Taipei (travelling) - prefer Remote
Experienced full stack web developer with 7+ years commercial experience working for companies in various sectors. I mostly work with Javascript - Node.js, jQuery, Backbone, Coffeescript, etc, though I've also worked extensively with PHP and Python frameworks. Prior to this I coded in C++ (Symbian) and Java (a mobile email startup) after graduating with a computer science degree. Whatever the project, whatever the challenge, I can quickly get up to speed and deliver.
Last project worked on: http://showca.se (Node + Mongo + Bootstrap)
My background includes 4 university majors (Computer Science, Information Technology/Web Development, Multimedia Design and Media Arts). I have been developing web applications for nearly 9 years.
Although I usually spend most of my time building robust back-ends that can scale on commodity hardware, I'm a well rounded full stack web software engineer. I know the front-end side of things as much as I know the back-end side. I can code any type of UI using cross-browser, valid HTML5/ CSS3/JS quickly and robust.
I have an eye for good design, I can use an existing style guide and build new screens (design, usability, back-end, front-end) all entirely by myself.
I was a django early adopter. I have been using it as my primary web development framework since version 0.96. I have been developing applications (server, desktop and then webapps) in python since about 10 years ago.

What's yerdle?
Yerdle (http://www.yerdle.com) is the new social marketplace where friends share everyday things with friends.Thousands of items are being shared on yerdle via iPhone and web, from camping gear to kid's toys. Members post items they're willing to give away, and yerdle connects them to a grateful receiver. It makes sense when you consider that 80% of the items in our homes are used less than once a month, and self storage is up 1,000% over the past 30 years. Created by veterans from Walmart, Saatchi & Saatchi and Zipcar, yerdle's mission is to reduce the durable consumer goods we all need to buy by 25%.

SEEKING WORK - Remote/NYC/Chicago - Extremely experienced designer and developer duo. We do soup to nuts web or mobile development with any level of scale and complexity and can pull together teams of developers and designers as necessary. We specialize in Ruby on Rails for web work, but we work with most other languages too, most recently Go.

- Ten-fold+ cost reduction over services like AWS and Heroku is not uncommon for decent sized clients (spending 10k+ per month), amortized over three years. Plus, since the hardware is yours, you get to keep it after the three years. Sell it, throw it into a Hadoop cluster, Christmas present for the wife, whatever.
- Custom built hardware for your exacting needs (typically SuperMicro core). Setups allow you to grow with your hardware (e.g. blades need not have all nodes filled).
- Work with local datacenters to deploy private cloud(s) near you, via colocation (10RU leases at 2 to 3 DCs works well)
- Failover at all points, including the hardware, server, and datacenter levels
- SmartOS or Xen hypervisor based clouds with Ansible
- Pricing is directly related to how much your costs are reduced. In fact, most is observed on a per month basis the few following months after deployment which will match the cost savings. Minimal disruptions to cash-flows.
2. MACHINE LEARNING, OCR, NLP:
- Leveraging Scala, Clojure, and functional JavaScript
- Multiple 42u racks can be devoted to processing
- Retainer based: ~2k per day, ~8k per week, or ~30k per month.

SEEKING WORK - Remote from India
I am a part time freelancer who just finished with my last contract. I am a full stack engineer, specializing in advanced backends. My skills include:
- Backend app development in PHP, Node.js (I am also familiar with Ruby/Sinatra but with limited experience)
- Javascript application development on front-end
- Experience with building apps built for scale. From large scale databases such as MongoDB, to task distribution networks, to zeromq.
- Experience in semantic HTML and HTML5 APIs.
I have pretty reasonable hourly rates, because I work part time. I work as a research engineer in my full time job, but I work a few hours per day to build up some additional savings. However, I am available for weekly calls, and I am dedicated to the work at hand.
I am looking for small to medium size projects, or ongoing contracting work. Feel free to email me at mail@munimkazia.com. Thanks for reading!
I am a self taught designer/developer who believes in creating pixel-perfect designs and in writing clean, standards-compliant code. I have considerable experience working with Photoshop, HTML, CSS, Javascript and Ruby on Rails.
SEEKING WORK - Remote or Lafayette Indiana. Available for part-time work or one-off projects. I worked for two or so years in a young web marketing firm and am now freelancing on my own.
I do all parts of creating your website except for the design. Give me a mockup and I can do the frontend HTML, CSS, and Javascript, as well as your backend in Django. Vim, Less and Coffeescript are awesome. I can also do sysadmin tasks and/or host your site on my Linode.
I'm currently looking for work as full stack Python/Django developer. I have successfully completed jobs from HN before.
I also have experience with Node.js, Tornado, Pyramid, C++ (OpenGL and Qt) and Java. For my personal projects I use linux, nginx, postgresql, memcached, mercurial, jQuery (with UI and mobile) and twitter bootstrap, but I'm also familiar with apache, mysql, mongodb, hbase, git, backbone.js and many other.
I've started my own consulting company almost two years ago and I've been working on contracts from HN or oDesk since then:
I've hired Tomasz twice in the past to work on a Python/Django project, so I can vouch for him that he was proficient, reliable, and easy to work with.
I am running a two man web, print and iOS agency (me coding, my partner moving pixels). We are located in Heidelberg and Leipzig / Germany.
I have been a freelancer for 10 years. I prefer Django and Python but I also have shipped projects with Ruby (Sinatra, RoR), C++ and PHP (Wordpress). Server administration was and still is part of my daily life as writing solid, test covered code and doing the usual frontend work.
My partner studies printing technologies and joined me after finishing her apprenticeship as digital media designer, as one of the three best graduates in her year. Her daily work includes designing logos and brands (business cards, catalogs,...) and making the things I build pretty.
We typically work with freelancers and small businesses but also realized big projects for international clients.

I'm most familiar with the following technologies: PHP(CodeIgniter), Python(Django), Javascript(node.js, backbone, angular) and MySQL/MongoDB/Solr.

SEEKING WORK – NYC – $210/hr – I will help your site scale
I'm a backend developer – mostly rails but I'm open – with lots of production experience running systems of 30+MM users, 50+MM PVs, and hundreds of servers.
I will take your slow endpoints and make them faster, and I'll even show you how to do it yourselves!
Primary languages are javascript and python, with a history in php and a little bit of Objective-c. I have experience with many of the common client-side frameworks like Backbone, Knockout, etc.
I work with all levels of the stack, though my specialties are in client-side javascript and css and with js on the server with node.js.
As an example, jsonip.com is a node.js app that supports over 10 million requests a day.
I custom-build most of my servers and have setup applications on AWS and other VPS hosting providers. Building servers from scratch is not a specialty, but I know how to jump in and get things done.
5KMVP is seeking Rails developers that communicate well, and are able to work on very defined scopes - most of which are "startupy" in nature, but more importantly are not unwieldy.
You will learn about many different industries, and get exposed to the quirks of interesting markets.
Must be willing to build a complete app, from a well-defined scope of work, for a flat-fee.
- Experience with Bootstrap, jQuery, CSS, ERB, etc.
Email: marc.gayle+railsdev@gmail.com with the subject line "Rails Dev for 5KMVP".
Include a portfolio (live links on Heroku preferrable, as well as a Github/Bitbucket account) and a reference to at least 1 successful client.
The most important thing I am looking for is clear, prompt, honest communication. If you can't do something, let me know...and we can work around it - if you are a good fit.
I'm a full-stack web developer, strong on the front end, focusing on Drupal and Python. I'm normally based in London but will be in Singapore from 4th Jul 2013 for a month or so. Would like to take on about a month's worth of work, in Singapore or remotely.

Excellent communicator comfortable in various roles such as mentor and client/project manager. Solid cloud computing (IaaS) and server management skills relating to DNS, AWS EC2/EBS and the LAMP stack. Speaks fluent English and Mandarin, studied French.

Junior web developer, looking to get some more experience.
Finished my first site (bootstrap-y CSS due to time constraints) about a week ago.
getwellbe.com
I have a full time job already, but would like to work on web projects on the side to broaden my portfolio and keep up with modern web techniques (again just trying to get experience here).
I'm experienced with Agile and this is my preferred style of work.
If you aren't so much concerned with getting your site out as fast as possible, I'd be able to work weekends with you to either help maintain a site you have already, or build one from the ground up! I wouldn't necessarily be expecting compensation, but if you think I do good work I'd love to make some money to pay for groceries every week :)
Shoot me an email @ bambielli@gmail.com if you'd be interested in talking more.
I am a junior developer too and unfortunately don't have any work for you, but just have two quick comments. First, your first site seems to be down right now. Second, from the articles I've read on here, it is never a good idea to offer work for free. I can't find the link to the article I read most recently, but basically it gives people the idea that your work isn't professional and they won't treat you as a professional. While most people on HN hopefully won't treat you that way, I think it is a good rule in general.
I can also do: Backbone.js, PSD to HTML, Bootstrap, Wordpress, PHP, MySQL
I've worked with over 25 clients in 4 countries and am always on the look out for interesting new projects. I won't belabor an explanation of my philosophy and experience on this thread, but please visit http://nealke.mp or email me if you are interested in learning more. You can contact me at me(at)nealke(.)mp

I'm a designer and developer experienced with Wordpress, Drupal, Django, and Rails/Sinatra. My personal goals are to be a great programmer in javascript and ruby, to learn java and objective-c, and to design beautiful interfaces for a wide range of platforms. I work daily at these goals. I have a strong passion for open source software and open civic data.
In late 2012 I created SeattleWiki.net and in January 2013 co-founded Code for Seattle, a local civic technology group with loose affiliations with Code for America. Along with Bruce Blood at the Seattle DoIT, I helped organize Hack for Change - Seattle, a hackathon held at City Hall on June 1.
I started learning CSS and HTML in 2005, started developing with Drupal in 2006, and have since developed sites with Wordpress, Django, Sinatra, Jekyll, and other content management systems and frameworks. I studied journalism and web development at The Evergreen State College, served as editor in chief of Evergreen's school newspaper, and worked as an advisor to the same school newspaper for 3 years after graduation. As an advisor I trained students on Drupal, CSS, HTML, Javascript, and broad web development/design/publishing concepts. I was responsible for maintaining the organization's websites, the web server, and the local file server.
