Groups mentoring and teaching
If you are looking for an excellent teacher with many years of experience to mentor or teach how is developing in Python or any other surrounding areas of the software development, you can contact me to arrange a mentoring/teaching period for your team.
Usually this kind of requests need to be arranged in advance and with some agenda and topics well defined. It usually is online but I’m open to do it on site if required and covered.
Consulting services for Python and development
When you or your team is stuck because of some technical decision or some issue that is not easy to approach, having the consulting services of an expert is the key to move fordware.
Common issues like:
- Been stopped and having the development freeze as a developer or company
- Unable to design the proper solution for your clients
- Check with an expert with many years of professional experience how to approach an issue
- Know what technologies should be used to implement a better solutions
- Help on how to hire the right candidates for your job offer
This kind of services will be done short slots and should be accepted in advance
Teaching courses
I tend to accept some offers to teach groups on topic surrounding Python and software development such:
- Python on the different levels: entry, medium or expert
- Multiparadigm programming: procedural programming, object oriented, functional programming, etc.
- Design of solutions: know how to design and implement some example applications is a great exercise to learn
- Professional web development: as an expert on frameworks such Flask or Django, I feel quite comfortable teaching other students or engineers how to create awesome apps
The latest course I was teaching was on the Harbour Space University, on site on Barcelona for the second level Bachelor program.
Freelance development on Python and other technologies
If you have an idea in mind, or you need a boost on the development of a solution, I can help quite a lot on making things happen.
Usually this kind of requests will be taking a couple of months to be done and would require of all my expertise on the development, so please be sure that the proposal is real and you see the potential.
Apart from knowing about software development, I have been involved in many projects and created some by my own so my expertise is also gathering market insight, social media needs, marketing strategies and much more.
The great part is that if I see it with potential, likely will be a successful project 😉
The solutions I can provide can use some or all the next technologies mainly:
- Pure python solution: APIs connections, transformation of data, manipulation of databases, and much more
- Software design: from databases to technologies on the front/back-end I’m an expert to find the best tools for each project
- Mobile applications: I have developed several successful mobile apps with Flutter that are having different backends to work with, so de solutions will share the same code but be available for Android and iOS devices
- Python web development: this is my first field and where I feel more comfortable with, developing solutions with Django or Flask with the experience I have since 2013.
My latest project is infocoche, an app and web connected with multiple services services and serveral servers, to get the information of vehicles in seconds: https://infocoche.net/ y https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.finfocoche
