Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about my software development services, pricing, process, and technology stack.
Services & Expertise
I specialize in custom web application development (.NET, React, Next.js), database architecture and optimization (SQL Server, PostgreSQL), real-time BI dashboards, AI document automation (AWS Textract), CRM implementations (Creatio), and team augmentation for enterprise projects.
I have extensive experience in banking and financial services, retail, legal, healthcare, insurance, and government sectors. Most of my clients are enterprise organizations in Panama and across Latin America.
I work with both. While most of my experience is with enterprise clients, I also help startups and mid-size companies build their technical foundations. The key is having a clear project scope and business requirements.
Process & Communication
Based in Panama City, Panama. I work in the Eastern Time zone (EST/EDT), which makes real-time collaboration easy with US and LATAM clients. All work is done remotely.
I follow an iterative approach: 1) Requirements gathering and architecture planning, 2) Sprint-based development with weekly demos, 3) Testing and QA, 4) Deployment and documentation. You see progress every week and can provide feedback continuously.
Absolutely. I have experience working as staff augmentation with existing teams. I integrate with your workflows, attend standups, and follow your coding standards and branching strategies.
I typically work with 1-2 clients at a time to ensure quality and focus. Availability depends on current commitments — contact me to discuss your timeline.
Pricing & Engagement
I offer two models: fixed-price for well-defined projects with clear scope, or monthly retainer for ongoing development capacity. Payment milestones are every 2-3 weeks for fixed-price projects.
Yes. All projects include 30 days of free support after delivery. Extended support and maintenance plans are available starting at $500-1,000/month depending on scope.
Every project includes complete source code with full ownership transfer, technical documentation, deployment guides, and knowledge transfer sessions. You own everything.
Technology
Backend: C#, .NET Core 8, ASP.NET, Entity Framework, Dapper, SignalR. Frontend: React, Next.js, Blazor, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS. Database: SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis. Cloud: AWS (Lambda, S3, Textract), Azure, Docker.
Yes. While .NET and SQL Server are my core expertise, I have production experience with Node.js, Python, and various cloud services. I focus on choosing the right tool for each specific problem.
Yes, this is one of my specialties. I have migrated 500K+ records from legacy systems to modern platforms with zero data loss, including complex CRM migrations to Creatio with full data validation and integrity checks.
