tl;dr
You have a great idea. I will program so computers understand. Then others can use it!
The ace up your sleeve
I do freelance software development consulting. Building entire greenfield projects and MVPs, new features, and refactoring. Primarily short-term contracts (0-3 months with option to extend), optionally part-time (8-40 hours per week), mostly working remotely. Subcontracting accepted.
Reinforcement on short notice
Hands-on software development in the entire stack as well as code reviews, designing system architecture and being an interim CTO. Emphasis on quality code with tests. With a wide range of skills and experience, I enjoy being the go-to guy. Working full-stack, but prefer backend over frontend.
