Hi, I'm

Adean Colón

Software Engineer building scalable web solutions with Next.js, TypeScript, and modern tooling.

About

I'm a Software Engineer at Red Ventures Puerto Rico with ~3 years of experience building and maintaining modern web applications. I enjoy writing clean, reliable code and contributing to systems that are easy to understand, test, and evolve over time.

In my day-to-day work, I primarily build frontend applications using Next.js and TypeScript, focusing on performance, usability, and maintainability. I've also worked on CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and have dabbled in Infrastructure as Code with Terraform to support AWS-based workflows.

I'm also my team's AI champion — I leverage tools like Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex as core daily tools, and lead internal sessions on prompting strategies to drive team-wide AI adoption.
