| SEEKING WORK - Remote, I'm Russian but live in Bali. ------------- Alexander Zaytsev, alexander@say26.com If your backend isn't Rails, you can stop reading. If you are looking for a ninja, go to Japan or NY storm sewers. ------------- Rails, HTML5, CSS3, Ember, Backbone, Responsive design, SCSS, Coffeescript. ------------- Side projects & open source: http://feetlot.com - Summer 2012, scratching my own itch. To build the shoes database I used several APIs and wrote parsers when there were no APIs. http://nabbber.com - 2010, 4000 users, 18k words added, Zend Framework (I moved to Rails shortly afterwards). Three 'b's? But dribbble was hot back then! https://github.com/AlexanderZaytsev/active_model_pusher - I believe the bright future of the web is Rails + Ember + websockets. This gem makes it easy to connect Rails with websockets. https://github.com/AlexanderZaytsev/human_date - A gem to help in displaying dates for humans (because I care about users). ------------- I'm really easy to work with. I know my stuff and improve constantly. I go through Rails/Ember commits on Github to see what's new before it is announced. I'm not afraid to say "I don't know." I prefer the back-end but at the same time I experiment with CSS stuff like vertical rhythm or using single-direction margins. In other words, I'm universal and strive for the best practices in every technology I use. I almost never use jQuery now because Ember and Backbone, that's why. I know when to use Ember and when to use Backbone. Lots of people don't. Apart from being good at the technical side, I'm also good at seeing the whole picture. I will help you build a better product. I will scrutinize your ideas and suggest new ones. I will add value to your product. Get in touch even if you don't have a cool project for me to work on, I love meeting new people.
