I have a project I am working on with some others but we need an upper level programmer to help us out.
Project:
- Dual channel PID based Temperature controller on one Arduino UNO or equivalent.
- TFT color touch screen interface
- Have abilityy to save and store profiles
- Thermocouple inputs
- Traces of the temp. vs time
- autotune function
I have found most everything needed from several other Playground libraries like PID and an advanced PID with autotune etc. like here

I would like to use a 3.5" TFT with SD card if possible , I found some that are Arduino compatible.
Thanks

We can talk compensation , I have some people I am talking to but I do not know their level of expertise
Has anybody worked with the PID so far ??
I need to know how to send commands and read settings via the serial monitor , total NEWBIE !
Well I hired a guy from this forum to do this project ! total failure , delivered almost nothing useful ( my new programmer looked at the code Horrible , no real understanding of C had to be re written or organized ) , I wasted 2.5 months on this sent them a $80 screen to India with $40 shipping to work on the project, he brought his brother on and did very little , what was done was wrong !
anyhow be careful who you hire !!
They go by Winacro.com in real life , I am not using his name so I dont violate rules of this kind , just be careful !
I have a template for you project.
Arduino mega 2560 + ethernet shield + sd card = web server.
the temperature in my project should be as on this plot:
control page:
settings page:

there were no PID , thermorelay principle.
No tft screen.
Use phone or PC to control the device.

Cant read Russian LOL , it is about as useful as the code I got from Nishant !

I think that you are ironically in vain. In fact, using a large TFT display is not really the best choice for Arduino. If it's a touchscreen, then it's definitely a bad idea.
On the market there are TFT-displays with built-in controller (such as Nextion), but they are not cheap.
I'm also close to Dmitron1036's (my namesake?) approach - using a smartphone instead of a TFT display.
It's just example.
A buttons and a text.
The language is defined by client (job provider).
If you are interested in this concept - I can make it.
