A week ago, my employer filed for bankruptcy: https://www.electrive.net/2025/02/25/jucr-meldet-insolvenz-an/

There is a chance that the company might continue the same work under a different new name but I can't afford to just wait for that. So I'm forced to start looking for my next job.

If you or anyone you know is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to work on projects involving Rust, please let me know. 🙏 My CV: https://github.com/zeenix/

Also, boosts welcome!

"Elizabeth Peratrovich was a Tlingit activist whose efforts led to the passage of the Alaska Anti-Discrimination Act of 1945, the first civil rights legislation in the U.S. At a time when signs reading “No Natives Allowed” were common, she and her husband Roy Peratrovich fought against segregation and discrimination. Her passionate speech before the Alaska Legislature helped secure the law’s passage, breaking down barriers and paving the way for future civil rights advancements.

We celebrate Elizabeth Peratrovich Day on February 16th to honor her courage and to inspire ongoing efforts toward justice. Her fight is now ours, and ensuring fair voting rights for all remains a crucial battle. By advocating for better access and representation, we keep her vision of equality alive."
