Re:Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (June 2026) on Tuesday June 09, 2026 @02:04PM (#48465001)
Location: Venezuela (UTC-4, EST overlap)

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Open to it

Backend-leaning full-stack engineer. I've been writing production code since I was 17, professionally. Not side projects, real systems with real users.

At 19 I was already owning fintech features end-to-end. Last year I flew to Europe to meet the CTO and CEO of my company in person, they brought me in for bugs and within weeks I was running full systems. I led a PCI compliance migration, built a deep links system from scratch, and shipped GDPR workflows, all solo.

Recently I built a dual-model AI data pipeline (Gemini Flash + Claude Haiku via AWS Bedrock) processing thousands of products at ~$0.005/item for motogearpick.com, a comparison platform I designed, built, and deployed entirely on my own. Moved a critical endpoint from 400ms to 13ms with proper indexing and Redis. Got accepted into AWS Startups.

I work well without a playbook and I own things completely, not just the ticket.

Stack: TypeScript, NestJS, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, React, Next.js, Vue 3, Docker, AWS (EC2, RDS, ElastiCache, CloudFront, Bedrock, S3)

I'm a backend-leaning full-stack engineer. I've been writing production code since I was 17, professionally. Not side projects, real systems with real users. My last performance win: moved an endpoint from 400ms to 13ms with Redis and proper indexing. That kind of thing is what gets me out of bed.

My last performance win was moving an endpoint from 400ms to 13ms with Redis and proper indexing. There's always something new to learn. I'm Aaron, 21, and I've lived around computers since day one. At 17 I was already shipping production code. Since then I've worked directly with CTOs, built systems across Venezuela, Spain, and the US, and held my own alongside engineers with double my experience. Tangible outcomes matter more to me than years on a CV Right now I'm building MotoGearPick, a PCPartPicker-style gear comparison platform with a dual-model AI pipeline (Gemini + Claude) processing thousands of products at $0.005/item, running on AWS Startups credits. Before that: PCI compliance and deep link systems at a Portuguese fintech, high-concurrency microservices for a betting platform I bring high energy, full accountability, and the kind of ownership most people don't show up with until they're 30.
