Hi, I'm a JavaScript/Ruby developer based in Melbourne. I'm primarily a front end dev but dabble in Ruby / Rails. I'm looking at getting out of working for design agencies and into more product / application orientated work. A small startup would be ideal (I'm currently at Deloitte and would like pretty much the opposite of that if possible). The ability to work 4 days a week would also be great.
My skills in FED run the gamut from basic HTML/CSS, animation in JS, work with frame works like Backbone.js etc. Lately I've been working on a framework to allow Backbone.js to work over Faye, allowing realtime updates of the Backbone models as updates occur on the server. The server component of this was written in Node.JS. With Ruby, I have experience designing APIs, mostly built on top of Sinatra, use of job queues (mainly delayed_job and Resque) and work in Rails. I have a portfolio online at www.richardson.co.nz. The most recent Rails / Backbone.js I built was a personal site for tracking examples of music in genres, you can find it online at www.knowyourgenre.com. A recent JS application that I wrote can be found at: http://nehta.s3.amazonaws.com/application.html Please contact me off list at [email protected] Thanks, Samuel Richardson www.richardson.co.nz | 0405 472 748 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
