I am a software engineer with 20+ years of experience and I am looking to contribute to freedom tech. This is could be anything related to Bitcoin, Nostr, or similar. Most of my work has been for embedded systems, so a lot of C and even some Verilog on everything from bare metal to Embedded Linux. Over the past 2 years, I have been writing PC applications in C# and Matlab and I have experience with Java, Lua, Ruby, and C++, so I'm comfortable with higher level languages. I'd be happy to learn Rust, Go, or anything else that will make me useful. If anyone has any thoughts, big or small, technical or personal, as I start this journey, feel free to respond.

Take a look at nostr.net for some existing projects. There aren't many C/C++ projects yet, but were betting there will be I sort of have an embedded background in old automotive processors, mostly binary editing and disassembly, but I have a long list of projects you may be interested in I mostly write C, C++ and C# libraries (over 500k lines of code in my repos) - C low-level cryptograhpy library - C++ nostr sdk - C# low level utility libraries (for server app development) - - C# full stack server + browser extension for nostr nip07 - if you visit https://www.vaughnnugent.com it is served to you using my http framework and web server software :)
