    I'm a Software Engineer / Lead, 15+ years of xp, currently building exo-skeletons and looking for a 3-month contract.

    Recent work:

    - [0-to-1] 2.5 years as a CTO at one of the FinTech startups (Market Analytics for G-SIBs, based on their regulatory data) in The City of London. 18 months from 0 to having real clients (yes, including all of the onboarding);

    - [0-to-1] Serverless photogrammetry pipeline for generating sub-mm precise headshape scans to create 3D-printed cycling helmets (safest on the market at the time). 12 months from 0 to production (B2C company), got featured in Wired;

    - Several years as a Fullstack at BioTech startups + wrote some drivers for wet lab equipment for several months (until I learned the dangers of it);

    Looking for: 3-month contract Fullstack / Backend / Product Engineering role. Would also consider a full-time role (especially if it's about Game Theory, BioTech, Robotics, satellites or city planning).
