Remote<p>This project is to create a Windows desktop application (compatible with Windows 7) that will connect to IQFeed (<a href="http://www.iqfeed.net/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.iqfeed.net&#x2F;</a>) and request streaming stock ticks for about 5000 stocks. When the program starts up, the user will upload a CSV file of the tickers that he wants to stream from IQFeed. The program will then request a streaming feed for those tickers. It will keep a hash table in memory that contains the symbol as the key and the last trade price as the value. The application will also act as a server and accept network connections from other clients to access the last trade prices. The other clients will send a simple message over TCP&#x2F;IP requesting the last price for a stock, and the hub should respond with the last price in the hash table.<p>Performance is very important for this program. You&#x27;ll need a good understanding of writing multithreaded programs in .NET, as well as writing low-level TCP&#x2F;IP .NET networking code using either async or a separate thread for each client (there will only be a half-dozen clients at most). I do have example code of another program (in C#) that I can provide to you that does something similar for a different data feed service. We can also investigate using a WebSockets library for the hub-client communication, but System.Net.Websockets is unfortunately unsupported on Windows 7.<p>Experience with IQFeed or another similar stock market data feed is definite plus. Freelancers from anywhere in the world are fine. I&#x27;m located in the New York City time zone, so we&#x27;d need to be able to find a good time to have Skype calls that fit our schedules.<p>Thanks for reading this posting! Please email me at andy.fiedler@fiedlerconsulting.co (co not com) if you are interested. Please include a resume or link to somewhere I can see projects you&#x27;ve worked on.

Remote<p>Rails full stack, focus on front end<p>I&#x27;ve been building two mobile-first Rails web apps using contractors for the past several months. The apps work and I have a good senior back-end Rails developer working for me adding new features. But I now need a new senior front-end Rails developer to help me upgrade&#x2F;reinvent the UI&#x2F;UX - particularly, making the apps look better, easier to use, faster loading, the flows more intuitive, and helping user onboarding. I need someone with very strong HTML5&#x2F;CSS3&#x2F;JS development skills for Rails apps to build out my ideas and improve performance.<p>The developer needs to be able to make changes directly to the Rails apps, including adding and changing automated Capybara&#x2F;Test::Unit integration tests. Consumer-facing UI&#x2F;UX design experience and interest is a plus, but is not required.<p>I&#x27;m looking for someone full-time, paid hourly, to work with me and the back-end engineer in a very agile, collaborative way, to improve the product and get it launched. I need the right person for at least 2 months, hopefully more.<p>I&#x27;m a self-funding, hands-on, full-time sole founder, with a strong business and computer science background. I&#x27;m based in Silicon Valley, and I need 1-2 hours overlap of working time each day for collaboration via live chat (HipChat).<p>The stack:
* Rails 4
* Bootstrap 3
* Javascript and JQuery. No front end framework currently in place
* PostgreSQL (relational) and DynamoDB (NoSQL) databases<p>It&#x27;s mostly a server-side Rails apps that need some JS&#x2F;JQuery for user input, validation, page transitions, widget integration<p>Target:
* Primarily HTML5 mobile web - primarily small screen sizes, iOS and Android devices
* It needs to work (but not necessarily be optimized&#x2F;responsive for) desktop and tablet too<p>Tools:
* Git for version control
* GitHub for code hosting
* Code Climate for automated code quality review
* CodeShip for automated testing
* Heroku for app hosting
* Amazon RDS and DynamoDB for database hosting
* Amazon CloudFront for CDN
* HipChat for chat
* Trello for project management<p>Budget $35&#x2F;hour<p>David &lt;at&gt; lab955 dot com
