About Gerard
I help companies maintain technical stability and scale their backends with the autonomy of a Senior Architect. If you need a reliable engineer to handle Java or Node.js/TypeScript maintenance without constant supervision, I am your partner.
What I bring to the table:
Overnight Support: Based in Japan, I resolve your critical bugs and tickets while your team in Europe sleeps, ensuring a fresh start every morning.
Senior Expertise: Former Technical Architect with 5+ years of experience in international environments (Amsterdam/Barcelona).
Deliverables: I specialize in API integrations, refactoring legacy code, ERP connectivity, and database optimization (PostgreSQL/MySQL).
My Added Value:
Coming from a Computer Engineering and Logistics background, I don’t just "write code"—I solve business problems. I am highly meticulous, AI-proficient for 10x efficiency, and built for asynchronous work. I deliver high-quality, documented solutions that keep your systems running smoothly 24/7.
