I have a baby on the way and hours outside of my day job to turn into dollars. I work for a defense contractor, and the contract I work on disallows any work above 40 hours a week, so I have plenty of time on my hands that I'd rather not spend looking at Babies-R-Us catalogs with my wife.
I live in Denver, but strongly prefer remote work. I've worked professionally with Java, C++, Javascript (both in browsers as well as an embedded scripting language) Groovy, and PHP as an intern and am currently on a quest to figure out Lisp to see what "the profound enlightenment experience" ESR talked about is. I'm open to small, one-off jobs as well as a long-term relationship, but because this baby is approaching at 60 seconds a minute, it wouldn't be prudent for me (or cheap for you) if I quit my day job to pursue another opportunity full time.
My contact info is on my profile page. If you've got anything you'd like done, let me know and we'll work something out.
We are located in New York City but remote work is totally fine.
We are rebuilding the backend of our application on Google AppEngine. Solid Python/Django skills are required. AppEngine experience would be a big plus. Familiarity with browser addons/extensions is also a big plus (Chrome, Firefox, IE).
Remote work totally fine. We prefer at least 10 hrs a week that you can commit. 20+ hrs would be great.
Would love to see work samples, github code, resume, random facebook photos, and blood samples. (kidding)
Developer seeking Designer for paid 10hr / week contract.
If you’re a designer who loves playing tabletop role playing games and would love to play a key role in improving Obsidian Portal, we’ve got an opportunity for you. Read more about it here http://blog.obsidianportal.com/seeking-a-user-interface-desi....
I'm a developer with about 10 years experience. I started out using Perl scripts in computational biology, and have long since left the research world behind. My skills include OO Perl, MySQL, PHP, JavaScript, Lucene/Solr, Objective-C, and of course my current favorite: the powerful Django, Python, Postgres, jQuery combination. I have even been known to do some web design (keep it minimalist!).
I've worked on projects spanning the spectrum, from startups that never got beyond 10 users and a virtual server to those requiring several dedicated servers, an index of millions of documents, and plenty of moving parts to keep everyone happy. I'm pretty dogged in solving any problem that comes my way during a project, and really enjoy the process of learning new skills.
Performance engineer and frontend web developer. Worked at Yahoo! and Mozilla as a frontend engineer specializing in performance and scalability. Available for consulting and short duration work (~10hrs/week). Would love to help make any site faster.
I'm working on a startup, but have to pause and do some short-term consulting to pay the bills. I am particularly interested in helping anyone who needs system-level work done, in C, on Linux or Unix environments. I have experience working with filesystems, and have written custom network filesystems which run on top of Samba. Although I have never done any kernel hacking, I would love to learn it and will give a substantial discount to anyone who gives me the opportunity.
Student looking for part-time remote work. Will probably charge less than most.
Well versed in Linux networking (specifically Ubuntu Server administration), Python, C, and Java. Have done significant amount of work with PHP, iOS/Obj-C, OCaml, Common Lisp, and x86 assembly. Pretty good background in math and computer science, some background in physics/electrical engineering/biology.
I'm a professional hacker, currently working at a super-cool ISP in Yellowknife, Canada. I've worked on automated testing frameworks in Perl at NITI (startup, sold to IBM), device drivers in C++ at ATI, RTOS hacking at National Instruments, systems software at Redback Networks, and lots more. In my spare time, I've been hacking lots on Node.js and building stuff for iOS. I'm mostly building stuff that uses Twilio, and my Node.js Twilio library (https://github.com/sjwalter/node-twilio) has good adoption (and it's pretty innovative--it turns interacting with a REST API into interacting with an EventEmitter--check it out!).
Interested in filling my spare time with interesting projects and money to help me fund my startup (as yet in the noodling and experimenting stage until I can get some fulltime work on it).

We are currently looking for an experienced PHP Web Developer. This is an exciting opportunity in Oakland for a new apparel company that uses Magento and Wordpress for our two main sites.
This is for part-time, contract-based work best suited for freelance developers near the Bay Area with availability to occasionally come in for meetings in Oakland (most, if not all, work can be done remotely). Weekly hours will vary depending on projects/tweaks. Quick turn-around is highly important.

I am currently bootstrapping MightyCV - a resume platform with hacker leanings. It has integrations with HN, github and StackOverflow along with some other cool features. I've built and designed the whole service myself with the help of some great ruby gems. Thanks guys! Signing up for an account will therefore give you some idea of what sort of web app I'm capable of building. I'm looking for web development contract work, either remote or in London, while I continue to bootstrap MightyCV.
If you like the look of it you can sign up for your own MightyCV resume by joining the private beta at http://www.mightycv.com (use this beta signup code: 22MARCH2011 after clicking the sign-up link on the homepage).
I'm a designer who code in vi and track changes with git. I've worked with Rails, Django, web.py, node.js startups and associated templating languages. My CSS preprocessor of choice is Stylus.

I am with SkillAddiction.com and SA provides casual gaming tournaments for people to enter into, for a chance to win cash and prizes. Players view a variety of tournaments and select which one to enter. Tournaments are free, cost virtual currency, or cost cash to enter and compete; which is where our biggest question is - what denomination, or entry cost, is optimal and attracts the most participants? We have a bunch of data and are looking to identify and extract key customer metrics so that we can gain better insight into our customers.
If you love to dig around numbers and identify cool metrics that help make a difference, drop us a line!

I'm passionate about JavaScript and am itching to use Backbone, Handlebars, node, Knockout, etc. to solve real world problems.
Beyond HTML/CSS/JS, I have experience working with PHP and Ruby/Rails, would be excited about hacking my way around a Perl or Python project and am not above working with Joomla and WordPress.

Can design your website, blog or give you a brand identity. Mostly been doing design consultation for startups lately. But anything short-term will do.
Though I am not really looking for it, but if you have a web-app you need a UI for, do ping me - if things are interesting I'd like to get along.
I'm a full time developer concentrating on doing high quality front-end / UX work for web applications and startups. I can help you handle both design, app-flow, mockups, as well as the cross browser compliant HTML5, CSS3, and Javascript required to build it.
I also have especially good experience working with Ruby/Rails/Sinatra/Rack based applications (due to the fact that I've built many of my own from scratch as self produced applications).
I've got around 10 years working in webapp development. Experience in Scala, Groovy and Java, some Python and PHP as well as HTML, CSS, JS. Enthusiastically interested in any web application work, but not much in the way of web design chops. Small or big projects welcome. Happy to talk about projects and ideas!
I'd like to find enough freelance work to replace my full-time job and free up some time to work on my startup.
I'm a PHP/JS developer, with a background in the embedded field. You might know me from the DSemu and jsGB projects, building games console emulators in C++ and JavaScript respectively.
If you need PHP/MySQL/JS work done, I'm available on a remote-work basis. I'm also open to embedded C/assembly work, if you have any.
I've worked with Java for 13 years and jQuery for over 3 years. I'm open to anything really as long as it's interesting and gives me a reason to get excited to sit in front of my computer for full days of coding. Something that's interesting to work on would take preference over something that's dull but pays well. Flexible to work on your schedule. Contact me via the e-mail in my profile.
Designer needed. Ability to code valid HTML is desirable but not essential.
We are a team working remotely (Europe, US & India) on a wide variety of client sites and workload is getting too big for us to manage alone. There should be quite a but of freedom to run wild with design work if you can justify it as useable ;)
Email is in profile. Send me a link to a portfolio or a bunch of links and we'll go from there.
My partner and I are currently bootstrapping our startup, Fitocracy (http://www.fitocracy.com) and are looking for web development contract work either in the NY area or remotely.
We cover everything from wireframes and Photoshop mockup designs, to user flows and interactions, to fully fleshed out web apps using plenty of Python/Django, HTML/CSS/Javascript.
Seeking design and or design/front-end dev freelancers that work remotely. We need help with front-end design for a professional web 2.0/"3.0" feeling look (think Turbotax.com in look and feel). Ideally designers that have some (or a lot) of front-end development in them and can also convert their designs into XHTML and CSS and do some UX work with JavaScript and jQuery.
Development background - Java and Python primarily. I'm also really good with JavaScript, server or client.
I'm an expert with Google App Engine. If anyone is looking for something there, I am your man.
Android/Rails programmer by preference, but I have experience almost everywhere. I'm looking to help out small to medium size companies on a project basis. I like to work with your team to improve the code, fix the tough bugs, and help your programmers improve, but I can also take over the project as a whole if necessary.
(throwaway account) Looking for a designer for design/markup/css/js work.
Southern California, preferably Orange County area. This will likely be a three month project requiring roughly 10 hours per week. The project is a fairly straightforward web design project.
Contact via M8R-p0mf3u@mailinator.com and if available please link to prior work. Thanks.

I work full time as a web developer for a transportation company, but I am looking to start freelancing more. My tools include PHP, Javascript, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, and HTML/CSS coding. Email is in my profile.
Quality design concepts, website layouts, user interfaces & marks/logos/brands/icons. Only taking on concept work at this time, too backlogged with development.
I have been doing Java web development for 12 years with skills in related tools (Spring, Struts, Hibernate, Javascript, jQuery). I have also done some Python and App Engine.
Remote work preferable. Nomadic, currently in Hong Kong.
I've worked professionally with python, ocaml and erlang. I've worked in search ( http://bit.ly/ji-texsearch-opt , https://github.com/jamii/texsearch ), testing ( http://bit.ly/ji-fuzzer ), distributed systems ( http://bit.ly/ji-mealy ) and am making inroads into p2p ( https://github.com/jamii/dissertation , http://bit.ly/ji-telehash , https://github.com/jamii/erl-telehash ). I have a strong background in math (real analysis, probability, discrete maths) and computer science (randomized algorithms, AI / epistemic logic, machine learning) .
I'm willing to work on anything interesting but my main interests are distributed systems and p2p networks.
