I am #LookingForWork. Unfortunately, I joined the ranks of those affected by #TechLayoffs last week, very suddenly and unexpectedly.

I'm a #SoftwareEngineer with over 20 years experience in the industry. I've worked primarily with #PHP, #JavaScript, and #TypeScript, but can also handle #Python and #Java in a pinch. I also have some experience with #AWS, #Docker, and #Terraform.

My resume is here: https://github.com/elazar/resume

Boosts and leads are much appreciated.

@jondowdle Heard back about my application: it seems they're only considering candidates with strong #golang experience at the moment, which unfortunately takes me out of the running. Appreciate you passing the lead along, though; thank you. 😃

@elazar @jondowdle My previous company is using Go and has hired a lot of engineers and the only requirement was to be willing to learn and use Go, but not to already know it. Any competent developer can learn Go quite quickly, and that’s one of the main reasons why we are using it.

@ngrilly @jondowdle It's been on my list of technologies to investigate, I just hadn't gotten around to doing so yet. I've seen it mentioned in a number of job listings, but I can't say that I've encountered many companies who were willing to let you learn it on the job, even if it was designed to be conducive to that circumstance. 🤷‍♂️
