You're on a forum filled with bored software engineers, posting details right here is a pretty good idea ;)

If contract work isn't against the rules for them (not sure), and the job is otherwise reasonable (feasible, not too open ended, not throwing up giant red flags) I bet he would get some bites by posting to the monthly "who is hiring" threads too.

Depending on the details of the request I might be willing to do it, more because I think it might be interesting to work on a "farm equipment control system" than anything else. Coincidentally I gave notice at my job a week ago so I'll have some free time coming up.

Okay, great. I just emailed him to find out if he hired someone. If he hasn't if there a way to private message on here? I can forward your contact info to him.
My email is in my profile (i.e. click on my username).
great, thank you. I forwarded him your contact info.
I appreciate it :)
Just noticed HeyLaughingBoy's post too, from his description I'd say there's a pretty good chance his experience is more on point than mine (it is a bit hard to tell from the limited description here though).

Not to torpedo my chances, but you might want to forward his contact info on too.
