SEEKING WORK | USA | Remote

I’m a CTO / VP of Engineering / Chief Architect / Founder looking to help others in those roles or aspiring to them through active mentoring and coaching.

I have been a leader of high-performance engineering teams for most of my 20-year career. This has provided a deep understanding and appreciation for the challenges of building and launching new products, managing and growing teams, setting technical vision, and handling acquisitions. Whether you are part of a Fortune 100 company or a 2 person startup, navigating the personal and organizational growth required to operate effectively in these environments can be daunting. My mentoring relationships have been formative for me, and I really enjoy helping others in the same way.

I have openings for new clients right now, so if you are interested, send me an email, and let's talk.

Email: intro@fullstackbusinessperson.com

Note: While I am on Eastern Time, I actively work with people in Asia, Europe, and the US. So geography and time zones are not a barrier.


Location: Atlanta, Georgia, USA (Eastern Time) Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: No Technologies: Go, C, Python, Ruby, Javascript, Dart / AWS, GCP, Docker, Terraform / Bluetooth, MQTT, Cellular, GPS Résumé/CV: Upon Request Email: hn@bitriver.co

I am most interested in helping early-stage or high-growth companies with their DevOps or IoT projects. I have extensive experience with large-scale SaaS and full-stack IoT products (firmware, embedded software, Bluetooth, cellular, GPS, cloud, etc.). On the cloud side, I specialize in cost reduction and removing systemic complexity through automation and sound architecture. For IoT products, I can help anywhere in the stack and at any stage of product development.

I’m open to project-based work or serving as a more embedded fractional DevOps or development team.

Maybe not main stream users. However, the market right now seems to be early-adopter-type camera geeks in San Francisco. I would think open sourcing the application would garner some serious respect from that crowd, if not trust.


Unless these camera geeks are also software developers that actively follow open-source projects, I doubt they actually care. The intersection between those two groups, multiplied by the very slight amount of trust that is gained (teyc was right in that users don't care about your code, they care about other users), while non-zero, is not substantial enough to warrant open-sourcing and all the hurdles that come with it.


The title of this reminds me of the awful "5 Simple Rules to Reduce Belly Fat" banner ads.

That said, it's an interesting read. Especially for someone that lives in the instant-gratification world of web apps.


I trimmed the title from "The top five engineering tips..." :)


As a low-karma, long-time lurker, I'm not sure I've ever really seen the kind of submissions he is looking for. Can someone provide examples of submitted content that would meet his criteria of deeply technical discussion worthy news?



I keep reloading this comment because I'm in the same boat as jmm57 and would love to see some examples as well.

Out of curiosity, is Hacker Monthly (http://hackermonthly.com/) what al3x and other long-time members want? Or is it the kind of discussion & content seen on a StackOverflow?
