pknerd··on Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (July 2026)
Won't take much of your time, as I often post here:

So lately I have been doing a couple of things:

- Programming related: GenAI/LLMs, Data Pipelines, automation, scraping, enterprise business process automation in Python, n8n, PHP, and a few other tech.

- Implementing browser and server-side tracking to optimize Meta Ad spend by sending visitors' behavior data to Meta and other platforms to let their AI systems learn more about the website and Ad campaign.

I'm looking for individuals/orgs who discuss their problems; I listen and provide solutions; that's what I love to do and am good at; dealing with both the tech and biz side. Can you offer such a combo? Do buzz me. I'm sure you won't regret it. Below are my credentials
