About the service
I'm a systems programmer who works almost exclusively in Gambit Scheme, turning compact expressive R7RS programs into fast native executables. I love Gambit Scheme's compiler most of all — it produces clean C code that I then tune and assemble into standalone binaries without runtime surprises. If you need a command-line utility, long-lived daemon, or numerical core that starts instantly and runs close to the metal, that's exactly the work that interests me. I also embed Gambit Scheme inside existing C and C++ applications, adding a scripting layer that your users can extend without recompiling the entire product. For distributed tasks, I use Termite — an actor library that ships with Gambit Scheme — and build fault-tolerant clusters where processes migrate between nodes and recover correctly after failures. A typical project includes a working prototype, readable commented source, a reproducible build script, unit tests, and a short guide so your team can maintain the code after handoff. I profile hot spots, replace generic lists with typed vectors where it matters, and through the foreign function interface reuse C libraries you already trust. Correctness is as important to me as speed: I keep the pure functional core small and push side effects to the edges. Tell me about the load, target platforms, and deadlines — and I'll propose a concrete plan based on Gambit Scheme.
