Paging the Fediverse! I've been out of work since the middle of 2024 and would like to change that :-)

I'm a software engineer of more than 25 years' experience. Most recently, I have been doing back end work using TypeScript, Ruby, and Java. I've worked at an ISP, at a national broadcaster, a high-volume web SaaS provider, and a medtech startup; I've led teams, been a tech lead, and been an at-the-coalface coder.

Do you know of somewhere that could use my experience? I'm a British citizen living in Denmark, and I'd strongly prefer not to have to move. Yet.

Can you help me #GetFediHired / #FediHired? Boost please, etc. Thank you :-)

Opslag på engelsk pga, at det er relativt sjældent, at man finder min slags tech job "på dansk". Også fordi at jeg ikke søger kun i Danmark. Og til sidst fordi at jeg ikke endnu har oversat den nyeste version af mit CV til dansk.

@rvedotrc Look at my employer GitLab. All-remote, inclusive, and enjoyable. And regardless, good luck!

@rvedotrc Please take a look at https://www.energyhub.com/careers#open-positions to see if there's something you'd be interested in.

(YMMV but I've found it a good place to work: very smart, very nice people, a good mission, and sane, capable management. And they're remote-friendly, so you wouldn't have to move).

@rvedotrc so we were laid off around the same time, you're 22 years ahead of me in experience and neither of us has been hired yet. So much for tech jobs being the future, eh?

@rvedotrc good luck Rachel, 25 years is about when I got out of the biz...and these days I am SO glad not to be in the trenches..

@rvedotrc, CFBR, even though I don't have many connections in Denmark. Good luck!

@rvedotrc maybe time to look elsewhere than software. Many of your non-coding skills have wide applicability.

@rvedotrc Hi Rachel! My team is hiring out of Germany, I'm pretty sure we do employee of record contracts for Denmark, as we do across the EU.

We're the IAM team for phishing sim/e-learning company SoSafe. Our tech stack is Typescript/AWS/Postgres, we need senior/staff backend to bring our user mgmt, SSO, and roles & rights systems to scale to customers with 100k users.
