# Alberto Ochoa — Senior Software Engineer

> Senior full-stack engineer (8+ years). I take legacy systems nobody understands and modernize them without regressions — .NET, React, SQL — and I build MCP servers and AI agents that do real production work.

This is a personal portfolio. It is intentionally agent-readable: the owner builds MCP
servers and AI tooling professionally.

## Field notes (blog)

- [The forensic method: six phases for production incidents](https://albertoochoa.dev/blog/forensic-method): Production debugging fails when it runs on intuition: the loudest hypothesis wins and the evidence evaporates. This is the six-phase method I use instead — data before theories, and no hypothesis survives without surviving an attempt to kill it.
- [The phantom build failure: when a capital letter takes down your Next.js build](https://albertoochoa.dev/blog/phantom-build-failure): Every page of a fully static site failed to prerender with an invariant blaming Next.js itself. The framework was innocent. A forensic walkthrough of refuting the obvious suspects until a single character confessed.
