After being with Mozilla for a little over 5 years, I've been laid off today, alongside a group of some of my favorite people. So, I'm on the job market! I've got ~8 years #iOS, #Swift, and #ObjC under my belt, working on everything from libraries all the way through full user-facing features. So, I'm #opentowork. Remote (US), working out of the Chicagoland area. 👀 LinkedIn in bio. Boosts would be much appreciated!
Whoops, forgot to mention: my résumé is currently easiest found on LinkedIn, available in my bio, and here: https://linkedin.com/in/dskuza

@dskuza somehow that link doesn’t work at all when not logged in. It just says “this user can’t be found” rather than “please log in”, so that may give the wrong message.

Maybe un-private parts of your profile for a little bit for the interim?

@jamesjm yep, good call; I had some of my public visibility set to private. I’ve opened it up a bit more!
@dskuza A one of a kind software engineer who won't last long on the market.
