B4R Question Need to hire for micro-controller programming, where do I go?

I'm designing a display piece that needs to be lit with what I'm imagining to be a small cluster of LED lights, maybe something similar to a puck light, but I need to custom program the light sequence. I've recently seen a video on how you can use an arduino to run custom LED light programs, but I have no such programming knowledge and I'm not sure using an arduino, necessarily, is the only way to get this done. I need to contract someone to write an arduino program to run LED lights and teach me how to put together such a light system, as well as flash the program to new processors.

Where should I go? ... On Fiverr or elsewhere on the web to request this kind of job?

Thanks

How fast is the light sequence? I can see heaps of wireless-control puck lights on ebay, and it looks like they use an infrared RC, so one way of doing it with off-the-shelf electronics would be an Arduino with IR transmitter and receiver, but I imagine that'd be fairly slow (like about the same speed as a tv remote control).

The puck lights I looked at seem to each run off 3 x AA batteries - probably not ideal for hi-use situation, but might be ok for short-term running a display piece.
