Armando Andini is a software engineer with 11 years of experience building production systems across e-commerce, streaming, social networks and developer tooling, with a backend-first full‑stack approach. He has driven architecture, public API design and performance at scale—most recently as a core developer at Nomic Foundation where he owned the Solidity LSP and the VSCode extension used by hundreds of thousands and contributed to Hardhat tooling used widely in Ethereum development. Comfortable from infrastructure and databases through API and frontend, he focuses on long-lived maintainability: clear abstractions, deliberate dependencies, layered designs and type-backed tooling that make refactors predictable. He also applies the same engineering rigor to testing—behavioral coverage that maps closely to production so CI signals are meaningful. A self-taught programmer since his teens, his curiosity spans strategy games, history, languages and even real-world engineering projects (he once built an apartment complex as a side project). Based in Santa Fe, Argentina, he combines open-source impact in blockchain tooling with deep practical experience delivering reliable systems.
