Hire an Australian Freelance Programmer Today

Hi. I'm John, a freelance computer programmer in Sydney, Australia. I develop web sites and applications; using the Python programming language.

Get an Mezzanine based CMS website for just AU$1,595. See my Rates below.

Qualifications

I studied computer science at the University of Technology, Sydney, did a Masters at Macquarie Uni, and have worked in IT all my life. I'm technical and detailed. I do all that really geeky stuff like write code, set up servers, and crystalise brilliant ideas into detailed technical requirements. As you can see I'm not a designer. I did my time in tall CBD buildings before realising I could deliver more value without all those meetings and cakes.

We will work out what you want, then I'll make the machines do it. If you have a website already I will assess the existing code then fix it, finish it, or reboot your current developers onto the fast track. "Show me the code" is a good motto.

Skills

I specialize in the Python programming language because it is fast, powerful, and scales well. I'm very experienced with building custom web applications using Django, and use Mezzanine for typical Content Managed websites. If you have a supply chain and are looking to start a new retail web store we should talk as I have eCommerce experience as well. Newsletters and mobile apps are not areas of remarkable experience, but certainly of interest.

Some clients also find me valuable for matching their ideas with existing software components or saas offerings. In this industry it is difficult to stay abreast of the latest developments and offerings. Quite often someone has already solved your problem which can save you thousands of dollars and months of work, if only you knew about it! It can be money well spent to research and evaluate existing options before embarking on a new build.

Rates

I'm available on a weekly "sprint" basis. During the preceding week we'll set the goal for the week, assemble the necessary materials, and verify access. Thence during your week:

1. I work to the goal throughout the week starting Monday and delivering at close of business Friday
2. You receive blow by blow updates throughout the week via this project management tool
3. The work does not stop for minor decisions; an assumption will be made and noted in the next update
4. You are free to jump in at anytime, at the level of detail you are most comfortable

The price per week is just:

• $1,495 when paying in advance and booking more than one week, or
• $1,595 for a single week paying in advance, or
• $1,850 if you prefer to pay in arrears.
