I know the tech industry is in shambles right now, but I'm officially dipped into my long term savings and only have a couple of months before we start dealing with how to pay the mortgage.
I'm a senior software engineer, primary language is Python. I've done web dev, game dev, internal corporate tooling and data pipelines. Been in industry since 2014.
Things I've done you might know:
- PursuedPyBear (ppb.dev)
- Topps Star Wars Card Trader
Things you definitely haven't:
- quoting and revenue tracking tools
- Accounting systems
- time cards
- data analysis publishing tools
- database query optimization in many flavors [MongoDB, Postgres, SQLServer, Athena/PrestoDB]
- E-Commerce platforms
I'm pragmatic but opinionated on most things and my leadership philosophy is 100% letting people with the interest do the work, and improving code bases via code review, pairing, and regular refactoring.
If you've got a leads or a position, please send them my way.
@twipped@twipped.social@pathunstrom @astraluma ZenBusiness has a couple openings, and we have a fair bit of python backend apis. https://jobs.lever.co/zenbusiness
They’re hiring for fintech, tho, dunno if thats your cup of tea
@pathunstrom
Apologies if you answered in another thread; what kind of position are you looking for - senior dev, team lead, manager, something else? Full remote or a specific location? What salary range are you hoping for, if you're ok sharing?
@hwesta I actually haven't been asked yet!
- Remote required (I just bought a house a few years ago and I'm in the high risk group for COVID.)
- Titles I've considered applying to assuming everything else looks good: Senior engineer, staff engineer, business analyst, technical lead, team lead, curriculum developer. I'm extremely flexible on my title, I am mostly looking for that position that lets me be a generalist with a deep knowledge base that I can share with others.
- Actually finally have my floor number for pay, which is 130k USD annually. Obviously, higher is better.
@pathunstrom
Great, I'll keep an eye out! I was going to suggest my company, but I don't think they can do salary, with the CAD->USD exchange rate
@hwesta Fair! If you want to DM me info I'm happy to look.
