Let's work together
I step into products that already exist, understand them, and keep building without anything grinding to a halt.
It is what I am doing right now for a Swiss foundation: I took over from their previous developer and picked up both of their digital products without interrupting operations.
availability
Remote, European hours, in Spanish or English. Every engagement is scoped before it starts, so I can genuinely commit to what I take on.
write to me
jorgecarrera98d@gmail.comTell me the context in four lines: what the product is, what state it is in, and what you need. I will reply if it fits, and also if it does not.
How I can help
Three ways of working that are already running with real clients, not a list of technologies.
Taking over a product in flight
Whoever built it is leaving and the work has to continue. I pick up the code, the infrastructure and the product judgement, and keep things running meanwhile.
Web product development
React, Next.js, TypeScript and NestJS, from frontend to backend and infrastructure. Including the boring part: deployment, performance and search visibility.
Architecture and team support
Architecture decisions, standards and code review for teams already building who would rather not regret it a year from now.
Where I have worked
Products in production, with real users and consequences when something breaks.
University of St. Gallen
Digital products of the Elite Quality Index, for the Swiss foundation that publishes it.
Inditex
Store management terminal, deployed across thousands of points of sale.
Openbank · Santander Group
Interface for a banking operations system used in branches.
VidaCaixa
Frontend technical leadership: architecture, standards and code review.
