Hello! First time posting in one of these threads. I suspect it'll just get lost in here, but who knows!

I'm a developer who has been writing code professionally for ~18 years, but in total including my self-taught years as a teenager, etc, I guess it's almost 30 years of slinging code at this point.

  Location: Toronto, Canada
  Remote: Yes (EST timezone), also perfectly willing to do hybrid and on-site.
  Willing to relocate: No
  Technologies: Java (Spring / Spring Boot), Clojure/ClojureScript, Docker / Kubernetes, SQL (Postgres, MSSQL, Oracle, ...), Full-stack Web Dev, Backend Web Services, DevOps (Jenkins, Bash, Ansible)

These days I'd consider myself much more of a backend / web services developer. I've done plenty of full-stack web development over my ~18 year career, but over the past ~8-10 years almost all of the frontend code I've written has been ClojureScript, so I feel I'm totally out of the loop on what the JavaScript / TypeScript world is doing. And I just prefer backend stuff in general these days.

On the side, I work on hobby projects mostly relating to game development (see my Github profile). These projects are usually in Rust or C/C++.

Thanks for reading!
