work with me
due to low capacity, i only take on a small number of side projects a year now.
what i take on
- engineeringbackend & data systems in python - with a design brief attached. i am best at the version that ships & still looks considered. fixed scope. a few weeks.
- advisorydeveloper relations & community. from a blank meetup to a conference. from a product nobody has heard of to one developers tell each other about. i have scaled communities myself - for tech products, open source & consumer brands.
- speakingtechnical talks & tutorials. keynotes, talks, panels & workshops with live demos in 13 countries so far - the list.
I loved working with Manoj, and I would absolutely work with him again. Manoj was outstanding working with me, he was quick, flexible, positive, determined and driven. I think at his core Manoj is deeply creative and he LOVES when he can combine that with this technical skills. He responds well to open ended challenges and matters of creativity.
email me at hi[at]manojp[dot]com with a short brief, the scope & your terms. i reply to everything, usually within 72 hours.
before this: mentoring & freelance
2016 to 2022 - 1:1 mentoring & freelance projects on codementor. python, linux, data, the environment that refuses to build, the question with no stack overflow answer.
ai solves a lot of that now. sometimes a human expert in the loop is still faster.
200+ clients. all five stars. €240 an hour.
the reviews say more about how i work than i can. here they are as written on codementor.
Manoj knows his stuff and does very well explaining things in a comprehensible way. Very personable and will answer all of your questions. I asked a few obscure questions and he did not hesitate to say when something was out of his realm of experience. Really nice to meet someone so honest and personable. We were able to dive deeper on so many topics and I came out of the session knowing so much more and with a better understanding of how Linux systems work in general. Also shared info on some really helpful conferences that will be coming up in the area. Will definitely be coming back again!

Honestly, the BEST mentor I've had thus far and believe me I've worked with a lot of other mentors! Manoj went through every aspect of my assignment and made sure to go above and beyond when I desperately needed it. He went through complex algorithm concepts and simplified it eloquently. Not to mention Manoj has a laid back, down to earth personality so it was easier to ask dumb questions without feeling embarrassed. I couldn't have asked for a better mentor, so I'll definitely seek Manoj out the next time I need help!

Manoj is just about the perfect tutor - patient, exceedingly knowledgeable, and a good communicator. As in previous occasions, he was able to tackle the specific problem at hand. In addition, he was generous, offering some additional time of his own to address peripheral issues not immediately related to the main problem. He gets five stars!

Manoj is an expert at everything he helped me with. He completed a project for me using python, javascript, html, and D3. The work he did was flawless and breathtakingly beautiful. I 100% recommend Manoj to anyone who is in need of getting a project done, and who wishes to have it completed in the most professional manner possible.

Manoj was great! We worked on my problem but were not immediately able to find a solution. But, even after our session ended Manoj continued looking into my problem, called me back, and we were able to get things working. He definitely put in extra effort to help me out.
