Your Business Runs
on Systems.
I Build Them.

I build the plumbing between your website and your CRM — application forms, e-signature pipelines, and lead routing that actually deliver. Then I document it so you're never locked into me. Transparent hourly rates, fast delivery, you own everything.

I Find What's
Quietly
Broken.

I'm Juan J. Carrillo — a systems and integrations builder in Orange County, CA. By day I'm the sole IT administrator for a B2B lending firm, running Salesforce, Google Workspace, telephony, and every integration between them. Nights and weekends I do the same work for small businesses through OC Dev Co.

The pattern in almost every job I take: something everyone assumed was working wasn't. A form showing a success message while discarding every submission. An application page failing 100% of the time. A $500K contract priced against a volume assumption that was wrong by 22×. None of those threw an error. Somebody had to go look.

My background in Accounting and Business Management (Saddleback College) means I understand the business problem first, then engineer the solution. And I verify the fix instead of asserting it — with documentation, so you can check my work and keep the lights on without me.

🧠
One-Person Dev Team
I handle design, development, deployment, and QA myself. No handoffs, no miscommunication, no delays waiting on someone else.
Fast Turnaround
Most projects are scoped, built, and shipped in under a week. I work at the speed of a startup, not an agency.
🔒
No Lock-In. Ever.
You own all code, accounts, and assets I create. I document everything so you're never dependent on me to keep the lights on.

03

I Build It Fast

Most projects ship in 3–7 business days. You get progress updates. I test everything before I hand it over — it works when I say it's done.

A business-funding firm — vendor evaluation

The $500K Contract Priced on a Wrong Number

A vendor proposed 5,000,000 documents/year at $500,000, pre-paid quarterly. Nobody had checked the contract against the actual requirement. It supported 13,699 documents/day against a stated need of 300,000 — 16.7 days of coverage, and the vendor's API rate limit made the target physically impossible at any price. Rather than argue from instinct, I built the alternative architecture and proved it worked.

Real cost exposed as $10.9M/yr, not $500K. Modeled and proved a ~$4,000/yr alternative in one day on free tiers — $0 spent, before any commitment was made.

A lender's public loan-application form

Every Application Was Failing, Silently

A public mortgage application had been returning "Submission failed" to every applicant for an unknown period. The page called a controller method that did not exist in the deployed class — and underneath that, four more defects: 13 of 23 collected fields were dropped before reaching the server, two fields were never assigned on the Lead path at all, and a notification step threw silently while the page still displayed "Application received."

Root-caused and shipped the same day. 36/36 tests passing, 83% coverage, verified in production — after confirming pre-existing broken tests would have failed a default deploy.

The Form That Lost Every Submission

Engaged to migrate a client's forms onto their own infrastructure. While auditing the live site page by page, I checked a partner-application form that wasn't in scope. Its submit handler hid the form and showed a confirmation — no API call, no backend, nothing. Every applicant saw "Your request has been received" and their data went nowhere. No error, no bounce, invisible from both sides.

Three broken integrations found and fixed during what was scoped as a hosting migration. Original code preserved as a documented rollback; every fix verified end-to-end with test submissions confirmed in the CRM.

A business-funding firm — multi-brand intake

Application → E-Signature → CRM Pipeline

A branded application form posts to a serverless relay that creates a pre-filled e-signature document and writes the lead to Salesforce — with API credentials held server-side so they never reach the browser. Five brands run live on it, each generated from a single template by a build system that hard-fails on configuration drift rather than shipping a broken form.

Five brands in production, two routes each. The relay writes the lead independently of the document, so a document failure still captures the contact — proven on the first real failure.

Self-Directed — Engineering Practice

Multi-Asset Algorithmic Trading Suite

Nine autonomous paper-trading bots running 24/7 in a Linux container on my own Proxmox host, with a capital allocator, real-time PnL persistence, automated risk controls, and a monitoring dashboard. Built to practice the unglamorous parts — socket timeouts, resumable state, A/B testing a strategy change against a benchmark.

Paper trading only, no live capital. Kept here because the operational habits — timeouts, versioned deploys, verifying a change actually ran — are the same ones that keep client systems up.

Common Questions

Answers to what most people ask before reaching out.

How do I know how many hours my project will take?
Before any work starts I send you a scope document with estimated hours, the rate tier, and a total estimate. You approve it before I start. If scope changes, we discuss it — I don't add hours without telling you.
Do you work with businesses outside of Orange County?
Yes, all work is remote-friendly. I've built systems for clients across California and done it all over Zoom, email, and screen share. Location doesn't matter for digital builds.
What's the difference between the $45 and $65 tier?
$45/hr covers frontend and web work — pages, forms, design, deployments. $65/hr covers full-stack engineering: backend systems, databases, AI integration, CRM architecture, or anything that requires a real codebase running server-side. If you're not sure, just describe what you need and I'll tell you which tier applies.
Who owns the code when you're done?
You do. 100%. All code, all accounts, all credentials. I hand over everything clean, documented, and ready for you or any future developer to pick up. No lock-in, no retainer required to keep it running.
How fast can you start?
Usually within 24–48 hours of scope approval. I keep a limited client load specifically so I can move fast. If you're in a rush, tell me — I'll let you know if I can accommodate the timeline before you commit.
Do you do ongoing maintenance or just one-time builds?
Both. One-time builds are the most common, but I'm available for ongoing hourly support, updates, and maintenance at the same rate tiers. There's no retainer required — just reach out when you need something.
Do you require a contract or upfront deposit?
For projects over $500 I send a simple one-page contract that protects both of us — scope, rate, ownership, and payment terms. I don't require a deposit for small projects, but for larger builds I typically ask for 50% upfront and 50% on delivery.
What if I need changes after the project is delivered?
Minor revisions within the original scope are included. Anything beyond scope is billed at the same hourly rate — no surprise invoices. I'll always tell you what something costs before I start it.
Can I see more work or talk to a past client?
Yes. The portfolio above links to two live client builds — you can interact with the actual systems. If you want a reference conversation, reach out and I'll connect you with a past client directly. I'd rather you verify than wonder.
Why Hire Me

You Get a Developer.
Not an Agency Bill.

Three things most developers won't say out loud — but that actually matter when you're spending real money on a real project.

🔑

You Own 100% of Everything

Every line of code, every account, every credential — it's yours the moment the project is done. No subscriptions to keep your site running. No monthly fee to "maintain access." No gotcha clauses.

vs. Agency model: they build it, they own it, you pay forever. I hand you the keys and walk you through every door.

💰

Agency Quality. Freelancer Price.

A marketing agency quotes $5,000–$25,000 for what I build at $30–$65/hr. The difference? You're paying their rent, their account manager, their project manager, and their margin. With me, you pay one person who does the work.

Typical agency CRM build$8,000–$20,000
Same build with me$500–$2,000
🤝

Your Project Becomes My Reputation

I use completed client work in my portfolio. That means I'm personally invested in making your project look great — because every future client I pitch will see it. Sloppy work hurts me. Clean work wins me the next job.

Translation: I'm not just building your system. I'm building my name on it. That's the strongest quality incentive there is.
