About
I am Richard Alfonso, a strategic Senior Full Stack Developer and AI Automation Engineer based in the Philippines. I have 7+ years delivering high-performance web apps and autonomous AI systems, specializing in Python (FastAPI), Node.js/TypeScript, and Ruby on Rails. I excel at bridging backend engineering with automation platforms like Make, n8n, and Zapier to design scalable, end-to-end solutions.
As a former CTO, I value code quality, scalable architectures, and pragmatic modernization of legacy environments. I have led projects ranging from DeFi protocols to AI-driven business operating systems and centralized crypto exchanges, turning complex concepts into globally deployed production systems. I’m passionate about building maintainable systems and empowering teams with solid engineering practices.
