<p>I'm open for Ruby on Rails contract work in 2025!</p><p>I'm an experienced systems and performance engineer with deep knowledge of Rails and the Ruby VM, and I have code committed and CVEs credited in both projects. I am also highly proficient with web tech, databases, and Linux systems.</p><p>I've worked at every layer of the stack from kernel to browser frontend, and I'm comfortable with cracking open the code to answer questions the documentation doesn't.</p><p>From 2013 to 2018 I worked on systems and performance at GitHub, where I led efforts to upgrade the main Rails app from Rails 2.3 to 3.2 (old heads know) and from Ruby 1.9 to the 2.x series.</p><p>I'm based in Melbourne, Australia and am experienced and comfortable working remotely, however I am also open to hybrid arrangements if you're local.</p><p>Available for immediate start on short-to-mid-term contracts.
