SEEKING WORK - Remote/Denver, CO [MT/UTC-6] | Fullstack dev; tech and team advice | Available mid-October. ---

Do you have an external API you'd love to pull into your product, but not the bandwidth/background to get it done? Is your team qualified, but not cohesive?

I'm Dylan Fitzgerald, a development & business consultant. I'd be happy to help you build great stuff, and your team to build themselves.

My tech experience runs up and down the stack, with exposure in the Rails and Elixir ecosystems, service API integrations, and infrastructure as code. In addition to client projects, I've provided code review services to hundreds of developers with experience ranging from junior to CTO level.

On the business and team levels, I'm highly collaborative, and nudge colleagues to find ways to work better together. My growth focus is on integrating the Solution-Focused framework into a business context to help leaders and contributors to do their best work.

Great fits include:

    - augmenting your existing team with the goal of providing process and communication refinements,
    - evaluating the best fit in technical decisions for your stack,
    - adding API integration(s) to your backend.
