Hi, I'm a PhD student, based in Scotland, UK, doing work on HCI for Web search interfaces. My background is in mobile software engineering (mostly Android, but worked as an iOS dev back in the days of iOS 4). The university I'm at has a program through which they will fund any industrial internship, for up to 6 months, as long as the company shows some commitment to the internship -- e.g. if the company pays accommodation for the intern, or provides training; they won't fund internships where the intern is just a slave worker. Unfortunately, due to external funding requirements, their shutting down this programme at the end of the month. I was planning to apply to the programme in September, but just found out they're shutting it down. I prefer any major European city, but am open to other places as well. Do you know of anyone wanting a free (almost) intern for 6 months and willing to speed up the application process? The internship itself can start at any time this year or next, but the whole application process needs to be finished by the end of next week. I prefer startups, having worked for big corporations before. If you know anyone, please please let me know! Or pass this message on to them. You can also reach me at freeintern@inboxalias.com. I honestly think it's a great opportunity for any company that needs a bit of extra engineering power. Skill-wise: * Mobile: Android (2.3.7+) -- I'm very familiar with the stuff the guys at square.github.io have released (Dagger 2, Mortar, Otto, Retrofit); iOS 4.0, but it's been a while
* Web: AngularJS (1.2), Node.js + expressjs; Bower, Grunt for automation; Angular E2E
* Data: I use Apache Hadoop (2.0.0) and Spark for my research a lot. For scripting, I use python with scipy, numpy and pandas (and seaborn). I think PostreSQL is great, but I've used MongoDB and Redis quite a bit as well.
* Tools: I'm a Debian user, so bash, git, etc.
* Languages: I speak Spanish. |
