Why evaluate my profile from the United States?

For a US company, evaluating my profile from Spain reduces relocation, visa sponsorship and timezone friction. I can work via remote contract or EOR, and deliver with the async culture I already master. My PHP/Laravel + Vue stack is standard across US SaaS.

FAQ — the United States companies

Do you work with US startups and corporates?

Yes. C1 English, async-first, 4 h overlap with US-East. I've worked with US clients on Upwork. For permanent roles, B2B or EOR (Deel/Remote/Velocity Global) per preference.

How do you handle the time difference?

Async-first. Written documentation, detailed PRs, decisions logged. Daily syncs in my afternoon / US-East morning. For US-West roles, 1-2 h overlap at start or end of day.

Do you accept USD payments?

Yes. I invoice in USD from Spain as a sole trader, paid via Wise, Mercury or international transfer. W-8BEN-E configured for zero withholding.

What's your rate for US companies?

Indicative range $80–130/h or $130k–180k/year equivalent for full-time via B2B/EOR depending on seniority and stack. Negotiable based on role and duration.

Do you accept equity at US startups?

Yes, when combined with a fair base + ISOs/RSUs with standard vesting (1-year cliff + 4 years). I evaluate stage, 409A, dilution and cap table.

Do you work with typical Silicon Valley stacks (Node, Rails, Go)?

My primary stack is PHP/Laravel + Vue/TypeScript. I have Node, React and Astro in production and ramp fast on adjacent stacks. For Rails/Go, I read and review without friction but they aren't my strength as a driver.
