Remote: Yes. I prefer this way of working.
Willing to relocate: No.
Technologies: Go, Postgres and MySQL, Linux, and some BSD (OpenBSD and FreeBSD) system administration, Rust, JavaScript and HTML. I've dabbled a bit in Elixir as well, and would be very keen to try working with it professionally.

I am currently working as a software engineer for a large web hosting company. I'd like to change roles to work somewhere I can learn more and work remotely full-time. I'd really appreciate a team that values simplicity. When writing HTTP APIs in Golang, I'd like to be able to use just the standard lib, instead of a Perl compiler that transforms a set of YAML files into a gargantuan caricature of an enterprise Java web server.
I am an excellent communicator, that is probably my greatest strength. I'm curious, I'm honest, and I'm kind. My favorite feedback from a manager that I've gotten is that I get along with everyone. I greatly appreciate logical rigor, and make a sincere effort to regularly examine my beliefs, in order to discard useless or false ones. I have a solid mathematical background - my undergrad and master's were both in mathematics, with a specialization in theoratical computer science and discrete math, and I regularly practice maths, often with friends, for the fun of it. I love software. If you want some examples of my latest work, I encourage you to go look at my codeberg account:
If you think you might enjoy working with me, I'd love to hear from you.
