Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (June 2026)

SEEKING WORK | Data scientist consultant | Canada/Remote Worldwide Most of what people call "data science" is now doable with an LLM and a weekend. I focus on the messy, ambiguous, regulation-heavy gnarly problems where nobody is sure what the right question is. With AI as an execution lever, of course. What I've done: - Saved a German automaker from lemon law recalls. ($20M+ exposure avoided) - Real-time emissions detection for industrial smokestacks. ($75K fines per incident prevented) - Revenue optimization and persona identification for debt collections (15-20% net revenue lift) - LLM-based legal document extraction, reducing due diligence turnaround from 3 days to 30 minutes - Built vessel piracy risk engine that informed naval escort deployment, contributing to fewer hijackings Things I'm unwilling to work on: - Gambling. - Ads/Surveillance. - Payday loans/rent-to-own. Email me with a one-paragraph description of your problem. If it's weird enough, I'll reply within 24 hours.

Location: Davis, CA Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: No Technologies: AI, LLM, RAG, LangChain, LangGraph, LangSmith, Agent, Automation, Python, FastAPI, Django, Backend, SaaS, Microservices, REST APIs Résumé/CV: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cRcT6wvTdhb1WbxVBYPLEilOlfM... Email: elmore.eng@gmail.com I’m an AI & Python Engineer focused on building full-stack backend systems, scalable APIs, and production-ready AI applications. I specialize in turning complex ideas into real systems—whether that’s backend architecture, cloud services, or AI-powered applications using LLMs and agent-based workflows. I’ve built and shipped systems ranging from high-scale backend platforms processing tens of millions of events, to multi-agent AI research tools and RAG-based knowledge systems. I like clean architecture, predictable systems, and code that doesn’t fight you at 2 AM. Core focus areas: • AI systems (LLMs, RAG, multi-agent workflows) • Python backend development (Django, FastAPI) • API design & system architecture • Scalable cloud systems (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes) • Databases & performance optimization (PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB) • Full-stack application development If you need something simple, I can build it fast. If you need something complex, I can make it understandable, scalable, and maintainable.

Full-stack software engineer who enjoys solving difficult technical problems and building systems that are reliable, maintainable, and useful. My experience spans full-stack development, API integrations, workflow automation, and quality engineering, and I'm particularly drawn to understanding complex systems and improving how they work. I am extremely analytical and logical, but also very creative, socially outgoing, and comfortable operating across a very wide range of disciplines. (For example, although I am a strong coder, I also have excellent oral and written communication.) Because I think in terms that are concrete but conceptual, I excel both in technical and non-technical environments, and beyond software development, I've also been involved in workflow automation, technical communication, and QA. I'm a very fast learner and I'm always willing to explore new technologies/better ways of doing things.
