SEEKING FREELANCER | Fusionbox | Python + TypeScript Engineers | Denver, CO | REMOTE (Legal to work in the US) We're a software engineering consultancy that builds enterprise software the right way. We negotiate the right to open source all our client code, maintain a handful of popular libraries, and our engineers contribute to Django core. We sponsor PyCon, DjangoCon, and Django Girls because we're invested in the ecosystem we build on. We're looking for software engineers who value software design, system architecture, and collaboration. You should be comfortable with about half of these areas and eager to learn the rest: web application security, relational database design (PostgreSQL, beyond "SELECT *..."), Django internals, React, and distributed systems. What you'll actually work on: complex state machines for financial workflows, multi-tenant architectures with row-level security, custom database functions when the ORM isn't enough, and React frontends that handle real-time data without being a mess of useEffect hooks. We're a small team where you'll own features end-to-end (database design to React components) and have opportunities to shape technical decisions. You'll get paid to write source code with a team that practices empathy and values work-life balance. If you've ever wished your job involved more elegant state machines and fewer marketing landing pages, let's talk: info@fusionbox.com.

SEEKING WORK - Remote - A Product Designer Who Can Code! I have 14 years of experience in Fin-Tech, Journalism, TV and Media, Health, Science, and love working with startups! I've taken countless projects from 0 to 1 working with clients like JPMorgan Chase, Santander Bank, Rob Walling, Trello, Peter Diamandis, Syncthing, SimplyCredit and others. I'm experienced in Vue.js, Django, Phoenix framework, Quasar, just to name a few. I pick up new tech easily and like working on complex products. I can help you with: - Product Design: I help identify and solve the real problems your users face. Whether you're struggling with low engagement, confusing user flows, or a product that doesn't quite meet market needs, I dig deep into user pain points to design solutions that actually work. From ground-up product strategy to fixing specific friction points that are hurting your metrics. - Front-end Development: I can turn the design into a pixel perfect product. Being able to design and develop allows me to move at speeds otherwise impossible by cutting a lot of the steps otherwise needed. I take my work very seriously and put a lot of work into excellent communication, proper planning, and, last but not least, properly understanding your product so that we can produce great results.
