About alejandro.

Portrait of Alejandro Gonzalez Romero

I’m Alejandro, aka algorodev, a software engineer focused on building fast, accessible, and reliable web products. Over the past 6+ years I’ve specialized in modern frontend engineering (Javascript, Typescript, Nuxt, Next, TailwindCSS) with a strong grasp of the full stack (Node, Django, Docker, CI/CD, AWS, Kubernetes). I care about clean architecture, measurable outcomes, and code that’s easy to change.

My day-to-day spans designing and shipping features, hardening error handling, and raising the engineering bar: centralized logging (Pino → Kibana), structured analytics (GTM/dataLayer), performance and a11y budgets, automated testing (Vitest, Playwright), Storybook-driven UI, and rock-solid CI. I’ve also integrated 3rd-party services (e.g., AskDialog SDK, Twilio chat), led DevChapter/SkillPill sessions on topics like store management and Tailwind, and pushed for good documentation habits (ADRs, clear READMEs).

I bring a product mindset: discover the real user problem, prototype quickly, instrument everything, iterate with data. I enjoy the craft (SOLID principles, thoughtful abstractions, purposeful naming) and I believe tests are there to enable speed, not slow it down. I like systems with observability, predictable errors, and graceful fallbacks (error boundaries, retries, timeouts, typed errors).

Originally from Valencia (Spain), now based in Dublin, I balance work with the gym, long walks, and travel. In 2025 I’m leveling up my cloud literacy and deepening my expertise in performance, observability, and AI-assisted product development.

If you’re building something that should feel fast, accessible, and maintainable, or you want to jam on developer experience and product delivery, let’s talk.

How I work

principle / 01

Ship over prototype.

Production-grade from day one: observability, error handling, retries, evals. A demo that wows in a meeting but breaks at scale is not done. It has not started.

principle / 02

Architecture earns its keep.

Clean separation of concerns, typed boundaries, dependency injection where it pays. SOLID is a tool, not a religion. Tests exist to enable speed, not slow it down.

principle / 03

Instrument everything.

Centralised logging, structured analytics, performance budgets, AI evals. If a system is in production and you can't answer "is it working", it is not in production yet.

principle / 04

Product mindset.

Discover the real user problem, prototype quickly, iterate with data. The best engineering is invisible: it lets users get their job done without thinking about the code.
