Hey Walker Tracker Team,
I saw your post on VueJobs for a Full Stack Developer w/ VueJS Experience. I'm a freelance full stack developer and love working with Laravel and both React and VueJS. I also find myself using Bulma quite a bit as I love it's simplicity and easy customization. Most recently I've been working on a web platform for a company called
The Oyster Common designed to improve and streamline the business tools
of oyster farmers. The platform includes features like inventory
management, a custom e-commerce setup, custom branding, and thermal tag
printing. The main tech stack utilizes Laravel, vanilla JavaScript with a
sprinkle of React for complex forms, a customization of Bulma for CSS, and AWS & Digital Ocean with
Ansible on the infrastructure side. The most challenging part of the
platform so far has been configuring and integrating a thermal printer
with the site, which will drastically improve the process for oyster
farmers as many of them are unable to connect orders and tags together,
and some still even write out these tags by hand. You can check out the
site at https://oystercommon.com. You can also check out a small game I created built in Laravel, Vue.js,
and jQuery UI that involves matching twitter handles to the tweet from
that handle. The game is available to play at twittergame.larrylaski.com and you can view the code at https://github.com/llaski/twittermatchgame.
I've also launched several complex MVP's for small startups and enterprise clients which have helped them achieve their goals such as bringing on seed money and growing an active user base to bring in revenue. My clients include The Oyster Common, Strong Analytics, Eat In Chef & Bond. I've also been brought on to improve and maintain existing projects as well, most notably with JPD Studio & Play Nice Together. You can check out more of my work at https://larrylaski.com.
A bit more about me - I help founders and visionaries bring their ideas to market, gain traction, and hit their next milestone, whether it be fundraising, gaining users, or gaining revenue. I'm able to combine my web development expertise with my product management and founder experience to help ensure what we build meets your business goals and puts you in the possible position to succeed. Communication is often my top priority, ensuring we are always on the same page and were both meeting each others needs. I also wanted to let you guys I know I really like your idea around creating an environment where people feel motivated to walk and exercise and get in shape. Being a fitness person myself I know firsthand how difficult it can be to stay motivated and I always find myself more motivated when I am in competition. I play in weekly leagues for soccer and golf and also am currently training for a number of spartan races, to to be able to work on a product that helps with fitness would be awesome and regardless I hope you guys continue to expand.
Just to make sure I don't waste your time, I typically work on a flat project rate with a minimum of $10k, and most projects in the range of $15k - $30k. If the scope is undefined or the project is open-ended, I'm open to a weekly rate as well. If you would prefer an hourly rate, I typically charge $90 an hour. Also I am based in NYC but believe I'd be able to work with the time difference especially as I work in the evenings a number of nights a week.
The next step would be a 15 - 30 minute call to chat about project details and see if we would be a good fit. You can schedule a call with me at https://calendly.com/larry-laski/30-minute-meeting.
Regards,
Larry
