I'm Stan, a Python/Django developer with 10+ years of professional experience.
I hold a Bachelor's in IT and have been freelancing and building my own products since 2017. I care a lot about well-tested, well-documented code.
☀️ Django-Q2: a background worker for Django that handles async tasks and scheduled jobs.
When the original django-q went unmaintained in 2022, I forked it and have maintained it ever since. It's on PyPI and gets around 550k downloads/month (August 2026).
☀️ ChiefOnboarding: an open-source employee onboarding platform with a deep Slack integration.
I founded it in 2017 as a closed-source SaaS, then open-sourced the whole thing a few years later to make self-hosting easy and put it within reach of more companies.
I take on consulting and freelance work, both short- and long-term. I can take a project from idea to launch and keep it running after or drop into an existing team to tackle specific features and issues.
