Freelance Linux Kernel Developer5.0 (2668 reviews)
Done a heck of a lot of programming and software design since I wrote my first on a Sinclair ZX spectrum in 1987. Not enough of it has been made open source. 2000+ five star ratings
Started programming at age 12 in 1988 on a Commodore VIC-20. Extremely adept at debugging of all kinds, performance optimization, databases, embedded systems, operating systems, networking, testing and automation across a wide variety of languages, APIs and frameworks, high level as React/Typescript and as low level as knowing several CPUs assembly languages and designing microcontroller PCBs. It is way too much to just enumerate. Formerly worked at Microsoft in Windows Protocols and Engines team.
I teach Operating Systems to CS students and guide fellow professionals through legacy codebase maintenance, practical software architecture, and new language/framework learning skills.
For students, I offer two types of sessions - one is a lecture-style session where I can go over course notes/slides on a particular topics and offer additional explanations and examples to improve your understanding of the material. Another type is an assignment take-up session where I can go over a past assignment and guide you through steps to solving it.
For working professionals, I offer the following options:
* Focused problem-solving sessions - if you have a particular issue that you're stuck with in a project you're working on, I can pair with you over Zoom screen-sharing
* Code review - if you cannot understand how to work with part of your codebase or if you'd like a second opinion on work that you've just completed, I can pair with you over Zoom and do a live code review and/or prepare ahead of time and go over my findings on a call
* Long-term mentorship - if you would like to learn some more fundamental skills or pick up a framework/design pattern/best practices, I can develop a custom-tailored learning plan that fits your skill level and schedule and offer regular teaching sessions with optional take-home exercises
A bit about me
---
I am a tech founder and a senior polyglot/full-stack developer, with a passion for teaching and mentorship. In a bit of spare time from my work, I am looking to help fellow software developers get more comfortable with our craft and exercise my teaching skills while I'm at it.
So far, I've done a wide range of work - web app front-end and back-end, data pipelines at scale, DevOps/infrastructure, mobile (quite a bit of iOS and previously some Android) and some security. I have a reasonable taste for UI design and user experience, despite that not being my primary specialization.
The industries I've worked in so far were heavily concentrated around finance/banking/FinTech and GovTech, although I've also been a founding developer at a couple of B2C startups and learned a lot throughout that experience.
My personal research interests include operating systems and programming language theory.
As cliche as it sounds, I try to learn something new all the time and I consider this of vital importance to my professional skillset. I always prioritize systems understanding and learning how to learn over memorizing APIs - and it's a philosophy that I try to share with my students as well.
Teamwork and constant exchange of expertise with my peers is a close second most important value to me. A software product can be almost meaningless without a team that welcomes learning from failures, encourages curiosity and fosters true human friendships, and empathy both towards each other and towards the customers of the software we create.
New client intake process
---
1. Intro/triage call [free of charge] [15 min] - this is a Zoom video call where I try to understand your background, the problem you're looking to solve and whether I believe we'd be a good fit for a productive mentor/mentee relationship.
2. Supplemental terms acceptance - as an independent contractor and not an employee of Arc, I ask my clients to accept a few additional terms that make session time measurement, scheduling and work product acceptance more precise, and further clarify the extent of our mentorship relationship.
3. Creation of Freelance Job/Scheduled Session on Codementor - if you haven't done that yet, I will ask you to create and assign me a freelance job and/or a scheduled session with a precise description of the topics we would be covering.
For certain sessions, preliminary preparation may be required - if that is the case, we would discuss the details and estimated time ahead of time and a Freelance Job would be required to cover the effort of the preparation.
Availability
---
Please take a look at my Codementor calendar to plan intro calls and sessions. Generally, I am available between 3:30pm and 8pm Eastern Time (New York/Toronto), Monday to Saturday, but I try to schedule all of my teaching engagements between 6pm and 8pm whenever possible.
*IMPORTANT: Urgent sessions are unfortunately not available at this time.* I am currently working through Codementor as a mentor, and unable to work as an on-call freelance developer.
Please also note that I cannot provide consultations over chat - in my experience, it's generally more time-consuming for everyone, and copy-pasting code over chat can get messy. For those reasons, I only work through Zoom video calls with screen sharing.
If you have any questions about the process or would like to book a call, I am happy to chat on Codementor - I should be usually available Monday-Saturday, 1pm - 8pm Eastern Time, subject to my other engagements. While I try to respond as soon as I can, I may take up to one business day or longer depending on how busy my schedule might get.
I studied an MEng in Computer Science in Spain, and moved to Ireland to work at Google as a Site Reliability Engineer for five years. Them I moved in Argentina, to teach in the country’s biggest University.
- I have wide experience teaching how to program, and in explaining the foundational concepts of Computer Science.
- I can also help delving into more low-level topics like network programming and operating system internals.
- Finally, Data Science & Machine Learning is an area of interest, and I can help you in courses that touch these topics.

I am Arushi Singhal, Software Engineer at Amazon.
I have a keen interest in Algorithmic Problem Solving and have been programming for around 7 years now. I interned in Summer 2019 at Google as a Software Engineer. In Summer 2018, I did a Machine Learning internship at Robert Bosch Engineering and Private Limited, Bangalore, India (RBEI). I have multiple experiences of back-end development for large-scale systems. During my internships, I worked with Python and machine learning libraries in Python, Java, gRPC, Protocol Buffer, Google Guice and Google’s Internal Frameworks, Django, Ruby on Rails.
I have also contributed to many open-source projects, including the Linux Kernel. I have submitted over 50 patches to kernel code. My other contribution to Open Source can be seen on my GitHub Profile. I am also passionate about mentoring and motivating people to contribute to open-source projects and was Google Code-In Mentor in 2017 for OpenWISP and Sugar Labs. I also worked as a Computer Science Instructor at CodeConnect, where we as an instructor ensure that our computer science education is accessible, empowering, and supportive for the next generation, and committed to our mission of increasing diversity in tech. In CodeConnect, I gave Python lectures to Pre-University students.
I also used to be a Student Teaching Assistant and Research Assistant and I find teaching/mentoring extremely motivating - sometimes I'd get introduced to new interesting topics that I'd probably never think of finding out about on my own if it wasn't for the purpose of explaining it to someone else. Sometimes I'd get a completely new perspective on subjects I thought I knew when trying to find a way to present it to someone else. I'd really love to keep learning this way.
One of the topics I'm always happy to talk about are the interviews - I've done a fair share of them, most of them in top tech companies and I would love to share what I've observed so far. I'm always up for tackling interesting interview questions, doing mock interviews or just giving resume tips (I got my interviews at Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft, Google and also at open-source communities without a referral, so I might help you with reviewing your resume to make it stand out. :))
Other than that, you can always reach out to me if you have questions related to Java, Python, R, Matlab, C, C++, Data Structures, Algorithms, SQL, GIT, Mathematics etc. I try to keep my knowledge and skills up to date and learn something new every day by helping you!
Being a researcher, quick learner and having software development experience, I believe I am a good fit for mentoring.
Hello everyone, I have been working in the CS industry for ~10 years. I have mainly been working on back-end and research oriented projects involving image processing. If you are looking for understanding how computers work at a deep level (as far as assembly), or want to know how big tech companies (such as Amazon) scale their projects, then I have knowledge to share with you!
Total experience: 7 years.
Tech stack: Golang, C/C++, Typescript, Python, React, React Native, Docker, GCP, AWS, Terraform, bash, git, OpenAPI, RESTful APIs, microservices.
Education: Computer Science from University of Waterloo (Canada)

2021-current: Working with startup company Synctera to help them building Banking-as-a-Service platform. I am responsible for designing and implementing public backend APIs in Go and OpenAPI spec.
During my grad school period, I developed a fascination for programming and embedded systems. Since then, I've been teaching "Embebbed C" for advanced students at the university, and "Advance Programming" in C++. On the other hand, I've worked with algorithms and problem solving, so a strong background in Matlab and Python was required. After academia, I've worked developing embedded C/C++ applications with Qt interfaces.
Later, I decided to pursue a Ph.D. in hardware design in FPGAs for fast data processing. Since then, I've developed different projects using C, C++, Python, Qt, Keras, Skit-learn, Pandas, VHDL, scripting, and more.
I really enjoy being a mentor because I can continue teaching, giving a different perspective, and helping others with solutions for different cool projects.
I am a senior software engineer with 14 years of experience in developing scalable, high-performance solutions. My expertise spans multiple programming languages and technologies, with a strong focus on Nix-based development, functional programming, and systems integration. I have a proven track record in leading projects that improve workflow efficiency and reliability, particularly in environments utilizing advanced Linux tooling and cross-compilation. My work includes designing and maintaining complex applications, from CAD routines for civil engineering to 3D drill hole design solutions for mining. Additionally, I am experienced in building robust integrations for business systems, crafting APIs, and creating automation solutions for enhanced data accessibility. Skilled in collaboration, I also mentor teams on best practices and code quality, fostering a high standard in every project.
