I'm a generalist who is working for a couple of years to save money before graduate school. I'm looking for an opportunity to work with the technologies that I specialize in: functional programming and high-performance systems programming.
My long-term goal is to work on Haskell compilers, so I specialized hard in functional programming and in optimizing low-level code. I'm hoping to find companies that have taken a risk by using up-and-coming technologies (Haskell/Rust/react.js/etc) and are looking for developers that can work effectively with those technologies. I'd also be happy to work with a team that uses functional programming with more mainstream languages, or with a team that writes a lot of low-level, performance-critical code.
In graduate school, I want to work on whole-program-optimizing compilers for Haskell that target Javascript/Java/LLVM. I want to make Haskell practical for real-world development of web and mobile applications. I've spend a lot of time studying Stalin and Mlton, and I think they make a strong case for the potential of whole program optimization.
