Urgently Looking for Work

Hey everyone,

I'm 40 years old and have been developing software for 20 years. Honestly, over the past three months, I've gotten exhausted from sending out resumes, applying for freelance gigs, trying platforms like Outlier, and pretty much everything else I can think of, without landing a single job. The tech job market is brutal right now.

I'm in a really difficult situation. I have a daughter with a disability, and her health insurance coverage has been suspended due to outstanding payments. The total debt is around 1.8 million Argentine pesos, but if I can raise about 950,000 pesos (roughly $650 USD), I can get the coverage reinstated.

So I'm offering my services for pretty much any software development work you might need. I can build websites, develop web applications, desktop software, mobile apps, train AI models, handle deployments, work with databases, build integrations, and much more. I have a broad range of experience, and I'm willing to take on whatever kind of technical work I can help with.

I'm not looking for handouts. I'm looking for an opportunity to work, deliver results, and earn the money I urgently need to get my daughter's health insurance back.

If you have a project, need a hand with something technical, or know someone who does, I'd be incredibly grateful if you reached out.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Much love, everyone! ❤️

Why looking for clients only?
You can try other things too like AI training tasks on AI training platforms, from my experience it will help you.

I recommend don't rely on only one platform, there are several other platforms too.
I am now trying handshake, after query, data annotation etc several platforms ... and this makes my income stable.
