The coquí is a tiny frog, but its song can be heard all over the island. You don't need to be big to make a big impact.

What we do

Three ways we help small businesses punch above their weight.

  • Websites & Apps

    Custom websites and software, built to the standard big companies expect.

    • Marketing sites, web apps, and full products
    • Enterprise-grade engineering, tested and documented
    • No lock-in, no mystery code: you own it
  • AI & Automation

    Put AI to work on the repetitive stuff so a small team runs like a bigger one.

    • Automated intake, triage, and routing, powered by Claude
    • Drafting and summarizing that sounds like you
    • Guardrails so the AI stays honest and on-brand
  • Ongoing Support & Strategy

    A senior engineer in your corner, without the full-time hire.

    • Architecture and build-vs-buy calls
    • Where and how to use AI in your business
    • Code review, hiring help, and a steady senior hand

How it works

A relaxed way to work with a senior engineer.

  1. We talk

    A real conversation, no discovery-call theater. You tell us the problem; we tell you plainly whether and how we can help.

  2. We scope

    A tight, honest plan: what gets built, in what order, and what 'done' looks like. Fixed shape, no scope creep.

  3. We build

    Test-driven, typed, and shipped in visible increments. You see progress, not a black box, and you can steer as we go.

  4. We hand off

    Clean, documented code that's yours: no lock-in, no mystery. And we stick around as much or as little as you need.

Who you'll work with

Justin Piñero · Founder · Principal Engineer

Bronx-born engineer who's spent the last five years building software at every scale, from small dev shops and startups like Future Foundry and ReSim to Meta. His approach is simple: understand the problem, build in small steps, and keep iterating until you're happy with what's built. Before coding, he solved problems for seven years as an FDNY paramedic, and as he used to say to his patients, “You see me sweating? No? Then you shouldn’t be sweating. Everything is gonna be OK.”

Kind words

What it's like to work together.

  • Justin took basic ideas that I had and created a clear, stunning picture in the form of the website he built out for me. He communicated with me every step of the way and really took the time to understand the vision that I had for my website. The product he delivered was even better than anything I had imagined.
    Jesse IrizarryBusiness Owner, JDI Strength
  • Justin was helpful and knowledgeable, but beyond that he consistently went the extra mile to ensure whatever goals were set in the meetings were crystal clear to everyone involved. He was courteous and always welcomed design strategies from faculty. If there were multiple approaches to a solution he would take the time to explain the pros and cons of each. He explained technical details to our IT staff so they could better maintain the site as well.
    Danielle BeroPrincipal, Northside Charter High School
  • I worked together with Justin, who was the lead front end engineer, on a big application for a client. He was one of the most hard working and good spirited coworkers I've ever had. If there were any questions I had, he was always solid at explaining and showcasing in detail exactly what was going on. The next team he joins will be extremely lucky to have him!
    Matthew SnowBackend Engineer, DevAO
  • During my time at Future Foundry I worked with Justin on multiple contracts. While working on multiple web and mobile applications at a time, Justin proved himself to be a very effective and talented frontend engineer. On top of that, he's one of the kindest people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. If I had the opportunity, I would work with Justin again in a heartbeat.
