Work Model
Paper Napkin Idea to a LIVE Product ready to sell/fundraise.
I work as an extended team member to your project helping you convert an intangible IDEA into a LIVE product with initial traction / revenues @ STARTUP speed. (~60 hr weeks).
What you get is "ME" .. a senior Hacker/Techie building your product with live updates / real time features implementation instead of tech managers offloading work to junior devs / freshers with more talk and less building and keeping you rolling on wheel for years.
It's not some offshore IT services company rather more like a Startup Accelerator. Work mode is usually remote or from your city with regular meetings.
Technology wise feel free to throw any challenge - Infrastructure, Backend Servers, Web App, Blog, Mobile App (Android/iOS), Hardware (Arduino / Kinect / Sensors), Games (2D/3D), VR / AR, Telecom, Analytics.
I like to work with the team / project for two days before finalizing our terms of engagement - "We need to like each other". Your idea / code base is gonna be completely safe & private and all IP / product ownership lies with you. We can sign an NDA regarding the IP protection & confidentiality agreement during preliminary engagement. You can create a free NDA here.
