Email: james@plaintextdev.com
A senior developer with 20 years of experience. I've built enterprise software for the Canadian government, worked at TripAdvisor on the review-processing team, and I've been freelancing for about a decade. I've become an expert at taking a design and making it work on real devices, but I'm also the guy people call when their in-house developers can't figure something out.
I'm looking for regular remote work, and I'd be happy to discuss any short-term freelancing positions as well. If you need a guy who can just do the thing, I'm your guy.
