SEEKING WORK - Remote (UK-based)

Product-focused senior dev / tech lead with experience of getting startups from nothing to MVP to funding to scale-up stage.

I'm happy to pitch in with an existing team, help you create and expand a new team or simply take a feature or problem out of your backlog/roadmap and replace it with a solid, working solution.

I'm available solo, or could bring 1-3 additional, trusted developers with me - whatever you need.

Skills include:

* Python, Django - expert level.

* Modern JS (ES6 and Vue.js, plus jQuery for legacy stuff), HTML5, CSS3.

* Excellent communicator, facilitator and developer mentor - I enjoy making teams happier and better.

* ‎Until recently I was tech lead at http://www.yunojuno.com, with a multi-disciplinary team of ~8.

* Big fan of testing, of good documentation, of automation, of creating clear, developer-empowering processes and of keeping production environments as dull as possible (because no one likes being on call).

* I know my way around machine learning (incl. TF) and am keen to apply it real-world projects.

Location: UK, remote. Can be available for US-timezone calls.
