One engineer. Vertical AI tools.

I'm Gabriel Galer, a software engineer with 7 years of experience building full-stack TypeScript applications. Octatech Design SRL is my one-person Romanian company — no fake team, no enterprise facade.

I build AI-powered tools for professional domains where legacy workflows — Excel spreadsheets, manual processes, paper forms — are still the norm. The kind of verticals big tech ignores because they're too niche.

What I've done

  • Currently modernizing a Ruby platform serving 300k+ users to TypeScript with event-driven architecture (US healthtech)
  • Built FormForm — AI-powered adaptive user journeys that turn client interviews into design briefs for architects
  • Built Geostruct — a desktop app replacing Excel in geotechnical engineering, with Romanian standards encoded in software
  • Deep research into AI agent architectures — control planes, backpressure, agentic coding infrastructure

The company
