Title: Hire me. Paolo Chiodi

Hi,
with this pull-request I'm proposing to hire me and close the openings.

I'm Paolo Chiodi, 29 full-stack developer from Italy.
I started as a .net c# developer, then moved to ruby on rails and javascript either in the browser and on the server, with node.js.

In my career I worked for different type of companies ranging from a software house to a startup, through a web agency: this gave me the opportunity to work with (and for) different kind of people.
At the moment I work for Blomming where I'm the front-end lead developer and maintainer of our node.js applications (https://github.com/blomming/image-server and https://github.com/paolochiodi/resizer).

Now I'd like to go for an international experience, while getting closer to my family (I have a 4 hours commute everyday at the moment)

You can find more about me on my linkedin page (https://www.linkedin.com/in/paolochiodi) or github account (https://github.com/paolochiodi/) and I can send you my full cv, if needed.

# Why me?
I tend to describe myself as a "Jack of all trades" (and master of none), I have broad skill set and an innate curiosity for new technologies. I have working experience of nodejs and the familiarity with tdd you typically find in the ruby community. As a plus, having worked in a communication agency (with demanding customers such as http://www.valentino.com), I have an attention to graphic details.

I'm organised, self-committed and able to work autonomously: I'have been freelancing as a side project while still working for my main employer.
I use open source tools, building my own when needed (es: https://github.com/paolochiodi/htmlcompressor)

Paolo
