If you want someone who will pursue a multifaceted understanding of your problem, hire me. If you need someone tenacious enough to face an intractible problem, hire me. If you would like someone meticulous and intention-filled in both their code and their words, hire me.
I will be one of your team's greatest assets, guaranteed.

Personally, I will be biased toward opportunities offering experience in "interesting" languages (e.g. Haskell, Lisp, APL/J, etc.) My background is diverse enough to make summaries almost meaningless, but suffice it to say that I virtually grew up hacking around on Linux boxes and with programming. My education is in pure math, with a special interest on algebra, linear and otherwise.
My strongest asset is the ability to quickly asborb and develop an intricate, protean understanding of complex issues. It's a skill not limited just to technical problems. My weakest point is excessive curiosity which tempts me down exciting rabbit holes. I use the task managing system taskwarrior to keep this in check. The thing I care about most on a team is strong communication. I almost subconciously take on the role of mediator and communications facilitator due to this value.
