Philip Aguiar

I build and ship production web products end-to-end, focusing on reliable, maintainable systems and customer-facing experiences. At HeadshotPro.io I architected a modular Next.js frontend in TypeScript and a complete backend pipeline that scales to thousands of users.

I developed REST APIs, job queues, workers for model training and image generation, integrated Stripe payments and webhooks, and added observability with structured logging, error tracking, and alerting. I also improved performance with server-side rendering, caching, and image optimization to reduce costs and load times.

I modernized a decade-old Excel VBA codebase at Vielight, automating sales data ingestion, porting macros to Office 365 64-bit, modularizing procedures, and adding structured error handling and logging. I also serve as the dedicated Shopify developer for BabyButz, refactoring themes into reusable Liquid components and establishing safe release workflows.

I build accessible, responsive sites and custom admin tools, including a searchable member directory and one-click Excel reporting for a national association. I value clear documentation, automation, and collaborative, cross-functional delivery that lets non-technical staff manage content and workflows.
