A React-based web app built with TypeScript, Next.js, and Redux on the front end and Node.js, Express, and MongoDB on the back end. I was the sole full-stack developer of the project, making the entirety of the application.

This web app targeted film and TV casting directors to manage actors' profiles and their personal information, such as headshots, photos, audition tapes, clothes measurements, and project-linked auditions. Each audition allows the actors to submit their profiles directly through a public-facing short link. The casting directors could filter and approve profiles, requesting additional photos or files and even requesting actors to send a pre-recorded audition or a live one, all within the platform.

The web app uses localization in different languages, including automatic language detection from the browser and overruling that with custom settings from the back end.

A React Native-based private social network for top-level executives from one of the biggest IT firms in the world. I was involved in the front-end migration from React Native for web to Next.js to improve SEO and overall performance and update the stack for the web app.

A React-based web app that runs on TypeScript and Azure.

I was the lead front-end developer in charge of the front-end design and stack decisions. I worked alongside a back-end development team, integrating the front-end app with their Python and Django REST API.

The project is a private recruiting web app for an HR firm that works 50% as a recruitment app and 50% as a social network. It handles candidates' profiles, experience, education, and connections as a social network. This involved detailed dashboards, fine-tuned filtering and searching, intricate candidates' profiles, and visual cues in linking elements, like schools and companies, to individual profiles.

A React-based front end, React Native mobile apps, and Node.js back end handle press and marketing materials distribution for one of the biggest film studios in Latin America.

I served as a lead developer for the team that built the front-end distribution using React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Redux, the mobile app using React Native, TypeScript, and Redux, and the back-end API using Node.js, Express, TypeScript, MongoDB, and PostgreSQL.

Serving content as a headless CMS, the REST API serves sensitive press and marketing materials to private accounts that belong to press members. Each account has to undergo approval, and after that, a member-based distribution of press kits, private screeners, EPKs, trailers, soundtracks, and more. The app also handles localization for handling content for Spanish, English, French and Portuguese users.

The platform runs on AWS. We used S3 buckets for storing content, Elastic Beanstalk for deploying the React web app and the Node.js REST API over EC2 instances and CloudFront for safely delivering content to the users, and Elemental MediaConvert for converting the private screeners and trailers to different sizes to server the client and Lambdas for triggering those conversions.

A custom WordPress corporate website for Educano, a private school for children with special needs in the Dominican Republic.

I was the sole developer of the project, setting up the website and creating a custom WordPress theme using Bootstrap 4. The platform runs on a private server, using a LAMP stack.

A WordPress-based corporate website for DGH & Asociados, a consulting company for Dominican companies.

I served as the sole developer of the project, creating the WordPress website, the custom theme, and creating custom plugins to properly integrate the events-registration plugins with local payments gateways and their internal systems.

Note: The project is currently being redesigned as a Gatsby website for the static content and a Next.js web app for the events registration and payments.

A WordPress-based corporate website for the Strategia Consulting Group in the Dominican Republic.

I served as the sole developer of the project, setting up the public-facing WordPress website, customizing an existing WordPress theme, and integrating the WordPress login system through the API with a custom web app they have for handling project management internally and for their clients.

The website runs on a LAMP stack on a private server.

A PHP and React-based project made for a corporate consulting client. The app handles project management for consulting projects, exchanging information between the company and the client in real-time.

I worked as a lead developer with one front-end developer and a mobile developer. The front was based on React, JavaScript, and Redux, using a custom back end that worked on PHP 7. The project runs on a private server, with the entire app being deployed with CI/CD.

The React app consumed data from the PHP back end, which used the WordPress login API to handle authentication. This allowed the profiles to be integrated with the WordPress-based front website the company has.

Some of the functionalities of this project management app are:
• Custom Kanban board.
• Private file sharing between the company and the clients.
• Deadlines and goals with specific tasks and percentages of completion.
• Real-time document editing using WebSockets.
• Internal team member assignment of tasks.
• Calendar and dates management company-wide.

A React-Next.js-based web app that handled real-time tracking of transportation of packages coming in and out of the Dominican Republic by a regional company. This is an internal app that handles the freight, internal packages, and container transportation of big retail companies' orders.

I served as the only developer for the front end based on Next.js, TypeScript, and Redux.

The web app consumed information from a REST API running on Microsoft ASP.NET and made by another team of developers and used WebSockets for handling real-time tracking.

Some of its features are:
• Real-time tracking on a map and via updates for trucks and packages.
• Status management for each package.
• Secure file processing for managing customs requirements.
• Division and filtering of packages per batch, which could be per airplane or ship container.

A Next.js landing using server-side components and a custom styled-components library. I was the lead developer, in charge of the project and leading the development effort. I collaborated with the corresponding departments to provide interconnection with Humata's back-end and internal tracking tools.

A TypeScript, Next.js, and Node.js-based property management app. I was the CTO of the project, designing and implementing the entire architecture of the app alongside the front-end and back-end code and the respective CI/CD pipeline. The main goal was to provide an experience that is better than what other competitors are currently offering in the region.
