Greetings,

Regarding a "champion to bootstrap R bindings," I'm looking to hire an
R/C++ contractor (or FT) as an open source contributor to Arrow, given R's
strategic importance to our data package manager <https://quiltdata.com/>.

If you know anyone who's qualified, please send them my way.

Here's the job rec <https://quilt-data.breezy.hr/p/2b2d219f2c71>.
