SEEKING WORK – Remote or NYC
Open to freelance or full-time roles.
Location: New York City
Remote: Preferred, but open to the right opportunity (particularly in NYC)
Willing to relocate: Maybe
Technologies: Ruby/Rails, Python, Go, Node/JS, AWS (many services), Solidity/Truffle for ETH blockchain stuff. Capable on the frontend too. Design and animation chops (Figma/Jitter). Experience in games, video, audio, fintech, and crypto/NFTs.
Resume: https://po.studio/s/paul_osetinsky_resume_2023.pdf
Email: p dot osetinsky at gmail
LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/osetinsky/
I'm a creative hacker with significant experience on the server/devops side. Currently in the process of winding down a fintech/tax startup where I was CTO. Before that, I wrote generative algorithms and smart contracts for this NFT project, which was a great learning experience: https://opensea.io/collection/1989-sisters
A couple fun things I've worked on recently:
* https://lexiplay.com/ | https://riddler.game – word games that use agentic AI systems and meta-prompting to create and moderate their own content. Still needs some work. I used to manage the backend team at Dots and explored puzzle generation there with GANs: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/two-dots-brain-puzzle-games/id...
* real-time audio synthesis, streaming, and manipulation with SuperCollider: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEC6-pBFj2Q
I'm currently interested in exploring systems of AI agents that solve interesting problems and create compelling media, but open to all types of product work.

Extended CV: https://po.studio/s/paul_osetinsky_cv_2023.pdf
Email: p.osetinsky@gmail.com
Website: https://po.studio
I'm looking for part-time opportunities in NYC or remote. Ideally related to fintech, crypto, or AI/ML, but I also have experience in video games, online video, and music/audio. Although I'm working on a fintech startup, I'm seeking ~20-30 hrs/week to help bootstrap it and treat any project I take on seriously.
* In 2021, Launched an NFT collection that has seen $3.4m in total sales (sole engineer). Worked closely with my partner in the project (the artist), handling all engineering for generative art and bespoke smart contracts. Paris Hilton, Reese Witherspoon, and Post Malone bought some.
* Currently CTO at Upward (https://upwardearner.com/), a mobile tax app targeting self-employed individuals. Deep integrations with Plaid and soon April for on-phone filing: https://www.getapril.com/
Would love to hear from you!
