Scouting report

Built a niche Airbnb iCal-to-JSON API in Node

assessed from open-source footprint

Mid
48signal

Alejandro's standout is Ical Sync, a lightweight API that parses Airbnb ICAL/ICS calendar feeds into structured JSON (availability, pricing) — a genuinely useful, focused backend tool, though it's at just 1★. Six-year solo account spanning Python, JS and TypeScript, but with no commits in the last year and only one merged PR, the recent activity signal is thin. Best read as a competent mid-level full-stack engineer whose public footprint is small but practical.
