17 YoE developing software; mostly Python web-based applications, data pipelines, internal tooling, and automations.
I have worked on products such as Quay.io (Red Hat) and on some cool teams at places such as Equinix Metal (formerly Packet) and Rackspace, among others.
I am currently employed as DevOps/SRE at a small game studio, focused on their non-game product. I really want to get back into writing software instead of managing infrastructure, but unfortunately our business is currently too small for me to switch roles. I have had a hard time finding any interviews that are not DevOps/SRE, so I am hoping for luck or feedback here.
I love working with a variety of languages but don't have any projects to show off. Python is probably still my strongest but happy to use anything and always learning! We use Rust at my current company but I am a beginner at best compared to those who use it full-time.
Happy to do just about anything; I do need a break from on-call rotations, long days, and fast paced culture. But I cannot take a massive pay drop (some recruiters assume that because I live in Maine, I will be extremely cheap labor). I'd be most useful developing/architecting backends for web-based applications and internal tooling but would also love to branch out more. Extremely comfortable with Kubernetes/Containers and automation.
Happy to go full-time, part-time, or even discuss contract/freelance engagements. It just must be a good enough deal to leave my current role
because I can't juggle side gigs.
Remote: Only
Willing to relocate: No
Technologies: Python, Docker/Kubernetes/Ansible, Go, SQL
