Senior Freelance Emacs Developer

Hello, My name is Gabriel Rider, I have over 7 years worth of experience as a Senior Database Developer and Data Engineer. I have also worked for an engineering firm on automation projects. I have worked extensively with Ignition HMI that uses Python as its back end language. Using this platform in conjunction with several different databases, I have created many projects including. * A recipe management system that creates and stores the data for an industrial recipe system and transfers the data to the PLC when needed. * Many applications that integrate MySQL and SQL Server databases and Python to perform industrial applications. * Many one-off scripts for the Ignition HMI platform. At my day job now, I work extensively with SAP and SQL Server development. When SQL Server Procedures are not good enough to use for data wrangling needs, I can also rely on my Emacs Lisp/Macro and Python/Pandas skills to get the job done. I am open to training new students/junior developers the unique ways of working that I have developed for solving problems on these projects.

FAQs

Why hire an Emacs developer?

In today’s world, most companies have code-based needs that require developers to help build and maintain. For instance, if your business has a website or an app, you’ll need to keep it updated to ensure you continue to provide positive user experiences. At times, you may even need to revamp your website or app. This is where hiring a developer becomes crucial.

Depending on the stage and scale of your product and services, you may need to hire an Emacs developer, multiple developers, or even a full remote developer team to help keep your business running. If you’re a startup or a company running a website, your product will likely grow out of its original skeletal structure. Hiring full-time remote Emacs developers can help keep your website up-to-date.

How do I hire Emacs developers?

To hire an Emacs developer, you need to go through a hiring process of defining your needs, posting a job description, screening resumes, conducting interviews, testing candidates’ skills, checking references, and making an offer.

Where do I hire the best remote Emacs developers?

There are two types of platforms you can hire Emacs programmers from: general and niche marketplaces. General platforms like Upwork, Fiverr, and Gigster offer a variety of non-vetted talents unlimited to developers. While you can find Emacs developers on general platforms, top tech talents generally avoid general marketplaces in order to escape bidding wars.

If you’re looking to hire the best remote Emacs developers, consider niche platforms like Arc that naturally attract and carefully vet their Emacs developers for hire. This way, you’ll save time and related hiring costs by only interviewing the most suitable remote Emacs developer candidates.

Some factors to consider when you hire Emacs developers include the platform’s specialty, developer’s geographical location, and the service’s customer support. Depending on your hiring budget, you may also want to compare the pricing and fee structure.

Make sure to list out all of the important factors when you compare and decide on which remote developer job board and platform to use to find Emacs developers for hire.

How do I write an Emacs developer job description?

Writing a good Emacs developer job description is crucial in helping you hire Emacs programmers that your company needs. A job description’s key elements include a clear job title, a brief company overview, a summary of the role, the required duties and responsibilities, and necessary and preferred experience. To attract top talent, it's also helpful to list other perks and benefits, such as flexible hours and health coverage.

Crafting a compelling job title is critical as it's the first thing that job seekers see. It should offer enough information to grab their attention and include details on the seniority level, type, and area or sub-field of the position.

Your company description should succinctly outline what makes your company unique to compete with other potential employers. The role summary for your remote Emacs developer should be concise and read like an elevator pitch for the position, while the duties and responsibilities should be outlined using bullet points that cover daily activities, tech stacks, tools, and processes used.
