Ricardo Giannotti · Caracas, remote

One person responsible {from the idea to support}

I have been writing software since 1999. For over twenty years I have built the systems companies in the US, Spain and Latin America run on: hotels, logistics operations, betting platforms, salons, shops. I work end to end and answer for the result.

Background

What I have done, in four lines

1999

I start programming seriously. Java and management systems for companies: the school of well-modelled data.

2010s

JavaScript and Node.js end to end: web and mobile products for clients in Spain and the US, remotely.

2020s

Complete platforms: bookings with payments, real-time B2B operations, a betting exchange, a scheduling SaaS. TypeScript, React, NestJS.

Today

Productised services for small businesses, AI automation and custom development, from Caracas for three markets.

How I work

One person responsible, from the first meeting to support

You won’t be coordinating an agency, a designer and three freelancers who blame each other. I scope the project, build it, launch it and maintain it. Fewer meetings, fewer misunderstandings, and one person to call when something matters.

We talk about your business

First I learn how you work today and where time or money leaks.

You see progress every week

No months in the dark: you try the system as it is built.

You own everything

The code and data are yours, on technology any team can pick up.

Markets

Three markets, one way of working

United States

Clients in Florida and other states: bookings, operations and services in English, on a compatible schedule (UTC-4).

Spain

Years of remote projects for Spanish companies, in the same language and with a six-hour difference I already know how to handle.

Venezuela and Latin America

My home market. Here I can see the operation in person, and I understand how people pay, how they sell and what can be promised.

Capacity

The whole product, nothing subcontracted

  • Discovery and scoping with whoever runs the business
  • Product and interface design
  • Web frontend and mobile app (React, React Native, SvelteKit)
  • Backend, API and database (Node.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL, MongoDB)
  • Payments, integrations, real time
  • AI automation: WhatsApp, agents, flows
  • Deployment, monitoring and support
  • Documentation and code handover
How I work

Four steps, no surprises

One person responsible from the first conversation to support. You know what you are getting into before committing to anything.

01

A 20-minute call

You tell me what you need and what is costing you time or money. Free, no commitment.

02

A fixed proposal

Scope, timeline and price in writing before anything starts. You know exactly what you get.

03

Delivery in stages

You see and test each step, instead of waiting months in the dark to find out.

04

Launch and follow-up

I do not disappear the day it goes live. I stay while your team adopts it.

Technology

Standard technology, no lock-in

I use the same tools the platforms you already use every day are built on. Nothing proprietary or homemade: if you ever want to change teams, any developer can pick up your project.

Availability

How you can work with me

01

Projects

Websites, automations, MVPs and custom systems, with a fixed written proposal. Most of my calendar.

02

Monthly retainer

Support and evolution of a system I built, or an inherited one, with agreed hours per month.

03

Senior remote roles

I am open to conversations about senior or technical-lead positions in product teams, remotely. If you are a recruiter or a CTO, the form has an option for you.

I reply within one business day

Shall we talk about your project for 20 minutes?

Tell me what you need and I’ll tell you straight whether I can help, what it would cost and how long it would take. No commitment.
