ABOUT

Practical code, usable products.

I'm Eduardo, a web developer based in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. My strongest work is Laravel and backend-heavy systems, but I also care about the interface, the flow, and whether the final product feels clear.

I enjoy understanding messy systems, improving the parts that slow teams down, and turning technical requirements into tools that people can understand and use.

CORE STRENGTHS

What I bring to a project.

Web Applications

Laravel apps with clear flows, useful panels, and solid foundations.

I build web products around real workflows: dashboards, admin panels, business rules, reports, integrations, and interfaces people can actually use.

Laravel PHP Filament Blade Vue

Automation & Data

Scripts, scraping, jobs, and integrations that remove repetitive work.

I work with queues, browser automation, external APIs, data flows, and scraping pipelines when the product needs more than a standard CRUD screen.

Python Selenium Puppeteer Node.js AWS Lambda

Product-minded Delivery

Readable code, clean handoff, and details that make the product feel better.

I care about the whole path: understanding the problem, shaping a usable solution, debugging the rough edges, and communicating clearly with the team.
