Summary
Alan Negrete is a versatile software engineer and company owner with nine years of hands-on experience building mobile, web, and embedded systems from idea to production. He specializes in cross-platform mobile apps (Flutter, Android) and rich web frontends (React, Angular) while also delivering backend and cloud infrastructure using PHP, .NET Core, AWS/GCP, and Terraform-integrated CI/CD. As Lead Software Engineer at Locana he built geocentric mapping tools for T-Mobile, and his independent Flutter app now sees 2–3k daily active users with peak traffic in the tens of thousands. He combines game-grade engineering—developing a lockstep, deterministic multiplayer RTS in Unity—with practical product sense, having integrated AdMob monetization and scalable backends. A self-taught polyglot comfortable across Java, JavaScript, C-family languages, and embedded work, he pairs entrepreneurial experience (co-founder roles and indie products) with discipline honed in the U.S. Marine Corps. Based in Ames, Iowa, he brings an uncommon blend of operational cloud infra, real-time systems expertise, and user-facing product delivery.
