Gustavo LarcoFull stack software engineer.

I build production web applications with C#, ASP.NET Core, SQL Server and React. Today I ship SaaS products for leading global HVAC manufacturers at Simplicity Software. Before that, I built and ran My-Negocio, a multi-tenant SaaS, on my own — from database design to CI/CD.

I write the software, model the data, build the reports and wire in AI. Pick the role you're hiring for.

Production web apps, from schema to deploy.

Backends in C# and ASP.NET Core over SQL Server, React front ends, and the pipelines that ship them.

What I do
  • Design MVC and REST backends with Entity Framework Core and SQL Server
  • Build multi-tenant, role-based systems with background workers and third-party integrations
  • Automate delivery with GitHub Actions to Azure and AWS

Case study · Founder & sole developer 2025 – 2026

My-Negocio

A multi-tenant SaaS that let gyms, salons, restaurants and retail stores in Latin America run clients, appointments, sales, inventory and electronic invoicing from one web app.

  • Multi-tenant by design. Four business models on one codebase, per-tenant data isolation enforced on every query, role-based access (Owner / Admin / Seller / Employee) and BCrypt auth.
  • Ecuador SRI e-invoicing. XAdES-BES digital signatures, compliant XML generation, QR-coded RIDE PDFs and background services with automatic retry.
  • Operations built in. Scheduling with conflict prevention, POS with inventory audit trails, employee commissions, 17+ WhatsApp notification templates and daily email digests.
  • Shipped and operated. AWS Lightsail behind Nginx, GitHub Actions CI/CD with blue-green deploys, automated daily backups and Let's Encrypt HTTPS.
Architecture
My-Negocio architecture: browser to Nginx to ASP.NET Core MVC, services and EF Core over SQL Server, with background workers for SRI invoicing, WhatsApp and email, deployed by GitHub Actions to AWS Lightsail.
