Meet the Team: Ignacio Cano (he/him)
This week’s ‘Meet The Team’ spotlights our Engineering Manager, Ignacio Cano.

Tell us about what makes you…you. (hometown pride, super power, secret talent)
I hail from the Dominican Republic, I’ve been creating software for a little over 12 years now. I’d say my super power is “support” and my secret talent… would be my BBQ skills.
Where were you before Alfred? We want to know your journey that led you here.
Before Alfred, I worked at GBH in the Dominican Republic for about 9 years, and started as a Junior Software Developer, transitioning all the way up to Engineering Manager. I’ve worked mostly on web applications, using NodeJS, Typescript, and initiated the DevOps department.
What makes you feel at home at Alfred?
It’s the people, the atmosphere, and the work that make me feel most at home at Alfred.
What are your 3 deserted island items?
A knife, a hammock, and shorts.
What does community mean to you?
Values, identity, interests, and fun.
Now that you’re here, what is one thing you’re excited to make happen at Alfred?
Growth and quality of life improvements.
3 most used apps on your phone/3 apps you can’t live without.
Sudoku, WhatsApp, Reddit
Something you learned during the pandemic/something you wished you learned?
Learned so much cooking! Empanadas, pizza, meatballs, short rib, a lot of sourdough…
Two truths and a lie
I’m a Ferrari fan, I enjoy playing games, and I can do a kick flip.
What’s your walk out song/pump up song?
Avenged Sevenfold — Bat Country
Coffee order?
Not a coffee person (I know, I know… love the smell just can’t drink it). You will most likely find me with a Coke (or a Beer).
