I'm spending this upcoming entire week in San Francisco and would love to speak to startups that are looking to hire for a Rails Engineer position.

To briefly summarize my experience - I've developed two Rails sites (personal projects) from the ground up, their design (CSS/xHTML), look, implementation (RoR,jQuery,pgSQL), and deployment(nginx/mongrel_cluster). I absolutely enjoy getting my feet wet in all aspects of web dev and wearing as many hats as humanly possible. I would rate myself as an Intermediate-level Rails developer who gets things done. If I don't know something, I love spending the time learning it. I've been doing RoR all in my spare time for the past 1.5+ years.

In my day job, I've been building large-scale, distributed software systems in C for 5+ years. It's pretty cool stuff that I have loved doing but want to switch to more consumer-facing, web applications development now.

Not sure if such posts are frowned upon but not being from the bay area, it is difficult to get startups to interview you. My email is in my bio page and I'd be happy to mail you my resume.
