MHM5000··on Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (February 2026)
Location: Tehran, Iran

Remote: Yes

Relocate: No

Primary stack: Python, Django + Django REST Framework, Streamlit, Viewflow-Pro, FastAPI, Celery/RQ, WebSockets, PostgreSQL/MySQL, Redis, Apache & Nginx, Docker, AWS (S3, Lambda), Ansible

Résumé / Portfolio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mojtahedi/

Email: mhm5000+hn@gmail.com

⸻

What I’m looking for:

• Roles: Senior / Staff Backend Engineer or Tech-Lead positions

• Engagement: Long-term, direct hire or contract-to-hire with meaningful equity; I enjoy building products and teams, not just features

Why me:

• Designed & scaled a payment platform serving 1000+ merchants and processing billions of USD in the last 4.5 years in the middle east.

• Habitual refactorer: cut 700 Django migrations to <200, shaved 60 % off deploy times, and drove P99 API latency below 150 ms

• Clear, async-first communicator; fluent in English

• Enjoy mentoring, code reviews, and turning business specs into maintainable architecture. Work should be fun.

If you need a senior engineer who can own a codebase, level-up the team, and ship reliably, let’s talk.

MHM5000··on Please Stop Reinventing JSX
1. I agree, Keep it simple. 2. The reason is in the SOLID principle. 3. In Django, we have a `reverse` function to generate the full URL to a page by passing args/kwargs. that's a good practice if the project's structure changes in the future. but again. keep it simple.
