Alex Hernandez

Hola! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧ I am a software engineer splitting my time between 🐨 Brisbane, Australia and 🍊 Orlando, Florida.

I love to write useful and reliable software and getting teams to produce results like a well-oiled machine. 🚂

Currently, I am working on Console Connect, a Software-Designed Networking (SDN) platform.

Here are selected examples of my past work:

Leasecake

Leasecake

I helped launch a commercial leasing management platform as part of Techstars Global Startup Weekend 2017. We won the whole planet!  I built Leasecake in less than 72 hours on Vue.js and Laravel. The product you see now is the same one from that fateful weekend! It has since grown under my direction as a tech lead where I was responsible for specing requirements, recruiting and managing team members on our agile methodology, and setting up infrastructure on GCP.

Sensarie

Sensarie

Pronounced similarly to "sensory," it is a startup dedicated to helping you find the perfect neighborhood in Orlando, Florida.  The founding team hired me for consulting and development. I ported their existing Node.js codebase to GitHub, setup an architecture based on smaller, proprietary npm packages, and proceeded with implementing major features such on-boarding from hi-fi mockups.

On-demand home cleaning services in Brisbane, Australia.  I built their on-boarding experience in vanilla JavaScript and CSS, powered by a serverless backend hosted on AWS' Lambda and exposed via API Gateway. Additionally, I build their internal email notification infrastructure on SES.

Rapido

Rapido

Rapido was a mobile app for requesting services such as plumbing, electric, and HVAC.  As a part of Starter Studio Accelerator 1.0, I spent my time conducting user interviews, designing, building, and marketing. I had the pleasure of being featured on a few different news outlets. The iOS was an early adopter of the Swift programming language. The apis where powered by Express.js and PostgreSQL.
