Ignacio Aguirre

I build and ship full-stack web products with Next.js, React, and Node.js. I also love games and am in the process of building my own multiplayer physics based game on my free time. I learned about ML models in order to predict recidivism and incorporate into the project I lead, and create dev content and tutorials when a project requires it. I turn ideas into working software and working products.

What I've worked on:

• Lead Engineer at RED Ed: built an LCMS from scratch, delivered to 300+ participants, cut recidivism to under 10%, achieved Cognia accreditation. Live at myreded.com . This is my biggest project, I can talk about this for hours.
• Founder of Snowball Financial Education: taught finance to 500+ students in the DeKalb school system, 9/10 from 200+ participants. This is what got me started into software and eventually led me to build a full LCMS with games, simulation, and content for RED Ed
• Game dev: I love physics based games and am in the process of creating my own multiplayer game. I can share this on the interview and play with you instantly with a link.
• Real-time social features for Peri, a gift generation app: real time feeds, follows, Places API, Supabase triggers, live UI, event based reminders and notifications for birthdays and any special occassion.
• Full-stack apps and REST APIs at Pocketmade, software company in San Francisco, in an agile team; wrote the onboarding docs that cut new-hire ramp-up
• Design-to-code tutorials for Locofy.ai, Singapore based company, that reached 50,000+ viewers (started by helping them for free, then got hired to create tutorials)

I'm Self-taught, I figure things out and talk in plain language. I'll own a build solo or guide your team through hard parts. Taking on new projects now.
