I am Armand Grandinetti, a software developer, DevOps engineer, and writer building systems and stories from the margins of my scifi grit noir cyberpunk universe. From raw Linux terminals to high-availability infrastructure, I orchestrate every layer of my tech stack—managing bare-metal environments, hardening AWS firewalls, and optimizing databases for raw performance. I design and maintain my own custom CMS—a lightweight, resilient, and carefully coded engine built to last. This architecture powers everything from inventory management software for Latin American SMEs to the cyberpunk universe of Valverde, a dystopian world where memory is currency and the system is always watching. My work is not about enterprise buzzwords or selling out; it's about engineering things that stand on their own: secure infrastructure, code that works, worlds that breathe, and tools that outlive their creators.
Based in Argentina, my background spans software architecture, DevOps engineering, infrastructure automation, visual arts, and color grading—disciplines that converge in everything I build. Operating from the global south, I write in English and Spanish, think in systems and images, and maintain a deep focus on technology culture, writing and arts as well as server deployment, and the quiet tension between order and chaos. My current projects include a high-performance open inventory system for SMEs, a growing library of over 100 interconnected sci-fi stories set in the City 9 universe, and a series of essays on technology, digital memory, and what remains of the human when everything is replaceable.
