    I do not want to code and/or manage software developers full-time. That said, my technical skills would be a vital asset in the right, blended role.

    Willing to travel as part of work duties.

    Remote:

    Remote is fine as long as I get to meet the team in-person first. Toronto is great too. GTA acceptable, if it's remote friendly.

    Willing to relocate:

    Can't presently. Open to New York, DC, or Western or Southern Europe eventually.

    Technologies:

    Fluent in Ruby, Python, and SQL. I maintain an ORM extension for Rails[0] for recursively traverse trees using single SQL query and also fluent in Django / DRF. Sold a small ML company I cofounded over a decade ago. Familiar with data science in Python and analytical reporting writing. Experience leading teams and technology as CTO and CDS. Experience in JS is limited and in Vue, Ember, and React.

    Email: [email protected]

    About 12 years of Python experience. More recent experience has been machine learning, data science, and data engineering focused. Trying to continue on that trajectory and also break more into the LLM space. Like everyone, I've been pretty excited by all the recent developments there. Have a solid understanding of deep learning concepts and theory. Have been hitting the books pretty hard on transformer models. Can't wait to break into that space! Looking for lead or higher roles.
