Hi!
I'm an electrical engineer with focus on telecommunications and a very deep background on UNIX systems.
I like to program in C++, PHP, Python, Perl but can take projects on virtually any programming language if you need.
Have done freelance works in C++ for desktop, servers and Web, PHP and Python for Web and some WebScraping, VHDL and Assembly mostly in college, and Visual Basic/ASP 10 years ago when they forced me to work on Windows IIS sites.
I have DBA skills on MySQL, PostgreSQL and MongoDB, but if you need can adapt to other database systems.
Been working for 15+ years with servers and network, always doing a little of system admin, network admin, security jobs like IDS, pen test, firewalls.
My operating systems of choice are Linux Gentoo, FreeBSD and OpenBSD, but can work on any Linux you like as Ubuntu, Debian, Suse, CentOS or any other, since I work mostly on command line and UNIX tools they feel like the same to me.
I surely can help your project for a fair price
