<summary>What I am doing right now</summary>
<p>
Im currently in Berlin, Germany, thinking about tooling in static
languages (specifically
<a href="//github.com/carp-lang/carp">Carp</a>), and prototyping
ideas around that.
</p>
</details>
<details>
<summary>What I can do for you</summary>
<p>
I am available for consulting work. Here are a few examples of
work I could do for you:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Help you figure out what technologies are well-suited for your
project, and create an actionable roadmap.
</li>
<li>
Design and architect software services, and help your team build
them.
</li>
<li>
Prototype a new idea or extension of your business, and meticulously
document the process and assumptions along the way so you can take
over painlessly.
</li>
<li>
Mentor developers and lead by example through honest and kind
review and code to build on top of.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
I have worked with a wide array of technologies and companies and
consider myself a generalist. Of course, this also means that Im not
an expert in any one field—the best way to know whether Im the right
person for your project is to ask me.
</p>
<p>
My ultimate goal is always to make myself replacable. I want you to be
able to take over control whenever you think the right time has
come—ideally we find a moment together—, and I want you to be able to
pick up work exactly where I stopped. I dont want you to become
dependent on me, and neither do you.
</p>
<p>
You can also take a look at my <a href="/static/resume.pdf">résumé</a>
or my <a href="https://github.com/hellerve">Github profile</a> if
youre especially curious.
</p>
</details>
<details>
<summary>What I charge</summary>
<p>
My rates are fixed and follow a simple, but beautiful scheme:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
If your product is a closed source, proprietary solution, I charge
1,000€ per day.
</li>
<li>
If your product is open source, I charge 800€ per day, 100€ of which
will be donated to a charitable organization of my choice. If you want
to know which organizations I support and why, check out
<a href="">my blog post about it</a>!
</li>
</ul>
<p>
My workday has eight hours and I charge by the hour.
</p>
<p>
If you have any questions about my rates or are unsure whether your
product qualifies as “open source”,
<a href="mailto:veit@veitheller.de">contact me</a>!
</p>
</details>
<details>
<summary>How you can contact me</summary>
<p>
I love to hear from any- and everyone who wants to share something
with me, especially if I can help you in any way!
</p>
<p>
If you have any questions, comments, or want me to help your product
succeed <a href="mailto:veit@veitheller.de">reach out to me</a>. My
PGP key is available <a href="/static/key/pubkey.asc">on this
server</a>.
</p>
<p>
Of course, you can also contact me just to chat! To understand what I
can help you with and what Im particularly interested in, check out

invitation</a>!
