Hello! I'm Ricardo, a Full-stack Engineer with 10y of professional experience and a strong emphasis on backend development . Beyond my technical prowess in Javascript/Typescript, PHP 8, Flutter, SQL, Docker, and more, I complement my web development skills with an MBA and prior experience in administration and financial analysis.

For over a decade, I've dedicated myself to the same company, managing the complete life cycle of numerous projects from inception to deployment , consistently ensuring optimal performance and user experience . Working solo has given me a broad perspective, but I'm now keen to join a team where I can focus on a specific role. Collaborating with and learning from others will undoubtedly fast-track my professional growth .

Lately, I've been learning about Svelte , Astro , NestJS , and Rust . I'd really like to use them in real work. I look forward to leveraging both my technical and analytical skills in new, challenging projects .

I'm not inclined to engage in industries that harm the environment , jeopardize people's health , or are ethically dubious. I am committed to making positive contributions to the world through my work .

Software engineer with 10 or so years experience. Most recent full-time role was as a Staff Engineer at Rivian Automotive. Full stack with a front end focus. I've worked on several professional, shipped products as a consultant as well.

I'm currently noodling around with LLMs and serverless. SvelteKit + Cloudflare Pages + Planetscale is my protoyping jam lately! I'm plenty familiar with other web tech as well.

It's fun to see how far one can get on the free tiers. A recent project received a nice token grant from OpenAI.

Open to freelance or the right full-time role.

My dream position:

- Business impact: always a business case to improve things with lower latency, higher availability, better scalability, lower operational costs. What some businesses really need is just a static webpage in Cloudfront: I want more.

- Corporate structure: a result-driven company that welcomes innovation. I'm happy with either large enterprises that move slowly or small nimble start-up, each has different strengths :-)

- Technical mindset: bottom-up tech design, right tool for the right job. Client-oriented design. Revenue-oriented & business-focused, it should matter from day 0. No abstraction is better than bad abstraction. Let free patterns emerge from organic growth.

- Technical landscape: data-intensive systems that can be relied upon, with strong business-relevant needs for performance, reliability, durability, and resilience.

- Team dynamics: engineers have and share areas of responsibility. No echo chamber or ivory-tower architect. All of us are collectively accountable for systems maintenance and architecture.
