I envy developers who can work remotely. I wonder if there's some model that can work for people like me. I'm not even sure how to describe my skill set other than something like this "a non-douchebag guy with top-tier investment banking and consulting experience who understands tech/dev/web well enough to be the glue between the two worlds and also synaptically chaotic enough to make people rethink positions on things and create order out of disparate ideas". I hate how corporations compromise thinking and genuine human relationships, so I'm going to quit things until I likely become an over-qualified barista serving my former employers coffee. How can I work remotely or for a grounds-up business?

Please sir, may I have some more?

Perhaps you can try contacting the people at Banksimple ( https://banksimple.net/ ) and see if you can help them out at all. If your description of your skill set is accurate, you might be able to help them. That's the only online banking startup that I could think of, although there are probably others that people can suggest.
