:  - :
Techs: Typescript, ReactJS, NextJS, VueJS, PHP, NodeJS, Laravel, Docker
Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server.
Clients needed clear project scope, realistic budgets, and defined milestones before technical work could begin, often with evolving requirements.
I gather custom requirements directly with each client, estimate project scope, and negotiate budgets, payment schedules, and deliverables for every milestone.
Once the budget is approved, I run a deeper technical and functional analysis, refining scope together with the client before design work begins.
I deliver web environments and web services tailored to each client's needs, aligning technical design with business goals, which reduces scope misalignment and rework by front loading analysis and negotiation before development starts.
Some of the main clients:
  • Welcome2BA.com: Platform development from the ground up, Slack, Calendars Sync, Online Payments, agency management. Customized PHP CodeIgniter and jQuery, later Nuxt/Vue and PHP/Laravel.
  • BairesApartments.com: Merged with welcome2ba.com, system migration toward the Welcome2BA platform.
