I'm Andre Jacobs — a full-stack developer and systems consultant who builds production apps with Angular, React, Node, and Python, ships on Google Cloud, and leans on AI coding agents to move fast. That sits on top of fifteen-plus years keeping hedge-fund trading desks and small-business systems running, so the engineering comes with real operational discipline behind it.
All work is done remotely — screen share, remote access, or a well-written email. No site visits, no truck roll.
Production web applications, built and shipped — not just prototyped.
WordPress and WooCommerce builds for businesses that need a site that actually converts.
Day-to-day troubleshooting for people who don't have an IT department to call.
Practical use of Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT to build and ship things faster — not just chat with them.
A few products built end-to-end — design through deployment.
Community platform for youth and amateur athletes and their families — user profiles, feeds, and integrated e-commerce, hosted on Google Cloud.
axiomatapress.com →Custom e-commerce platform with end-to-end checkout, payment processing, and a mobile-optimized catalog.
9positions.com →Custom WordPress/WooCommerce build with a dynamic product configurator and custom variant pricing.
Fifteen-plus years split between hedge-fund trading floors and shipping web products — most problems aren't new to me.
Built and shipped Sparc Sports and Axiomata Press end-to-end, and maintain WooCommerce client storefronts including 9Positions. Use AI coding agents (Claude, Gemini) to accelerate prototyping and delivery, write Python automation against third-party REST APIs, and architect cloud-native backends on Google Cloud — Cloud Functions, Cloud Run, Firestore, and Vertex AI.
Deployed and managed the company website and marketing plan, led development of the CDMI credit-repair app, and built an internal CMS in Angular and Node.js that connected client data to merchant accounts and data suppliers over REST APIs — alongside day-to-day help desk support and network device installs.
Managed IT services for a private financial firm — maintaining the Windows/Mac desktop environment, installing and configuring market-data and trade-execution applications, supporting remote connections for satellite offices, and deploying desktop systems and mobile devices firm-wide.
Supported the Windows desktop environment for a hedge fund trading desk and its support staff — troubleshooting network and production issues, logging calls through ticket-tracking software, and administering an Active Directory single-site domain with Cisco VoIP and RSA Security.

Comfortable moving between a codebase, a cloud console, and a desktop support ticket — same troubleshooting instinct either way.
Tell me what's going on: an app that needs building, a site that needs rebuilding, or a machine that won't cooperate. I read every request myself and reply the same business day.
