Currently learning everything I can about bitcoin and all of its infinitely deep tech + econ rabbit holes and the myriad of related tools. Building multisig wallet tech and procedures, exploring privacy stacks (full node + Electrum, etc), building some Lightning Network projects, exploring NFTs, and some fun project work on altcoin platforms (solidity smart contracts on Ethereum, C++ on EOSIO/WAX).I often serve as the CTO for young startups but I'm a hands-on builder at heart and prefer being a Tech Lead.For the past couple of years I've offered my services as a one-man shop who can build and launch a project very quickly--my vast experience in tiny startups has forced me to become a master of all trades. I then train junior developers to take on more responsibility once the mission-critical architecture and core platform has been established.I excel at discussing and refining business requirements. My entrepreneurial background ensures that I keep the tech laser-focused on fulfilling business needs. Perhaps most importantly, my background as a high school English teacher gives me unparalleled communication skills for a techie. Looking for the right short- to medium-term opportunities to leverage all of the above. I work primarily in Chicago, LA, or remote.Preferred web tech stack: Python/Django, Postgres, Docker, AWS Lambda. NodeJS/jQuery/etc where needed but I try to keep the UI layer simple.https://github.com/kdmukai
