SEEKING WORK | Philadelphia, PA | Remote or Local

Technologies: a lot, but mostly Python, Django, PostgreSQL, AWS, GCP

Résumé: https://www.amecy.com/work/Plick_resume_web_2023-10.pdf

Email: tomplick AT gmail.com

For the most part, my résumé only has my professional experience on it. To see more of what I've done, please visit my work summary at https://www.amecy.com/work/ . In particular, if you play chess, check out my chess training site at https://www.checkmatechamp.net/ . That site runs on the Google Cloud Platform and uses Python on the backend. The frontend is a mix of vanilla JS and OCaml (using js_of_ocaml).

My experience at startups has helped me learn how to build systems, and how to keep them running, simply and with minimal resources. For example, as of this writing, Checkmate Champ has been running for 845 days without my intervention.

I have learned a lot of languages over the years that I never got the chance to use in a professional setting, including Lisp, OCaml, Haskell, and Smalltalk. If you are using one of these, I would love to hear about it.

Résumé: https://stackoverflow.com/cv/tplick

Email: tomplick AT gmail.com

I have worked at Philly-area tech startups for nearly five years, doing primarily back-end development (with Python, Django, and Postgres) but some front-end work too. I was laid off a few months ago and am looking for a new position, either remote or local to Philly. In my spare time, I work on https://new.amecy.com/ , a site for turn-based board games. My latest project is Checkmate Champ, a chess tactics trainer, located at https://www.checkmatechamp.net/ .

My chess training tool: https://new.amecy.com/main/checkmate There are other tools that work similarly, but I never found one that worked just the way I wanted. So I started making my own.

Résumé: http://stackoverflow.com/cv/tplick

Email: tomplick AT gmail.com

I have worked at Philly-area tech startups for four years. I am currently employed (I haven't put my current job on that SO resume yet) but I am open to hearing about new opportunities, preferably remote positions. I spend a lot of my spare time on https://new.amecy.com/ , a site for turn-based board games. (If you play chess, check out the tactics trainer at https://new.amecy.com/main/checkmate .)

I made a site for playing turn-based board games ( https://new.amecy.com/ ). Sign-up is free; I was eventually going to charge a small fee for extra functionality, but I haven't gotten enough users to make it worthwhile.

One of my main problems is that the site is not too useful unless you sign up. You can see what's going on on the site at https://new.amecy.com/main/observe , but it's clearly not as much fun as playing the games yourself.
