Location: Philadelphia, PA

Remote: Yes/Preferred

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies: Ruby, Rails and related tooling. Some experience with Scala.

I am presently looking for new employment as my most recent company laid off all of its remaining employees after becoming insolvent. Given my future situation in terms of next year, I am unable to relocate right now and would strongly prefer remote work.

In my most recent role I worked on the development of a sports statistics API using a combination of Rails for parsing (storing to MongoDB) and Scala for the API with Swagger generating a frontend. I have worked in the past with Rails in a consultancy context. For better or worse I have typically worked on CRUD applications with primarily static content, but am looking for new challenges where I am not necessarily just working on such applications. I have an interest in becoming at least somewhat familiar with various languages, and would be particularly open to roles where I am not using Ruby. Such languages could include any of C#, Java, Scala, Go, or perhaps something else entirely.

I am available to start immediately.

Resume: Please email me.
