A small shop that takes the engineering seriously.
We help companies build, assess, and improve software they can't afford to get wrong — with the senior experience and judgment those systems actually need.
Meet Alan Panno.
Tech Lead & Senior Full-Stack Engineer · Fintech · Web3 · Cloud · Remote from Spain
Experience at Fujitsu · Nestlé · Accenture
Fluxa Labs is led by Alan Panno, a tech lead and full-stack engineer with 17+ years shipping software where a failure costs real money: proprietary trading platforms, regulated Web3 systems, and enterprise infrastructure running at global scale.
He owns the whole thing — architecture, backend, frontend, cloud, and the team around it. Founding tech lead on a proprietary trading platform, tech lead on a compliance-grade Web3 financing platform, and the go-to technical authority on blockchain and backend systems at Fujitsu, Nestlé, and Accenture.
That mix is on purpose. The person reviewing your architecture is the same one who's built and run systems under real load, so what you hear is grounded in what actually ships, not what looks good on a slide.
“I only take work where having a senior engineer in the room actually changes how it turns out. If it won't, I'll tell you straight.”
Selected work
- Built a proprietary trading platform from zero: real-time data pipelines, MetaTrader 5 integration, AWS deployment.
- Led delivery of a regulator-compliant Web3 platform end to end — smart contracts, backend APIs, cloud infrastructure.
- The primary technical authority for enterprise Ethereum and Hyperledger systems at Fujitsu.
- Shipped Nestlé's blockchain supply-chain traceability: +30% transparency, −30% processing time, +20% efficiency.
Software quality is a business problem, not just an engineering one.
Bad architecture calls, fragile systems, and piled-up technical debt don't stay in the engineering corner. They show up as missed deadlines, security incidents, and creeping operational cost — usually right when you most need to move fast.
Most companies can feel that something's off with their foundation. What they're missing is a clear read on exactly what, the experience to know what to fix first, and the hands to fix it without derailing the roadmap.
That's the gap we fill.
Our focus
Software where getting it right isn't optional.
Our approach
Look closely, say it plainly, build it properly.
Our standard
We won't recommend anything we wouldn't do in our own code.
Our clients
Funded startups, fintech teams, and founders who need a technical partner they can trust.
A senior set of eyes the whole way through.
Fluxa Labs is built around one rule: the person you talk to is the person doing the work. No bait-and-switch, no junior team running your assessment off a template.
Nothing off a template
Every assessment is about your system, your team, and your situation, not a generic checklist run the same way for everyone.
Honest about what matters
We separate the critical from the merely annoying from the noise. You get a clear picture of what actually needs attention and why.
Business comes first
Technical advice that ignores your constraints is useless. We factor in your stage, your team, and where you're trying to get to.
No conflict of interest
We don't take commissions on the products or platforms we suggest. Our advice is independent because being right is the whole job.
Real start, real finish
Every engagement has a clear scope and a clear end. We don't sell advisory that quietly drifts on forever. You know what you're getting.
We remember
Once we've advised on something, it stays with us. Each engagement builds on the last instead of starting from a blank page.
You'll probably recognize a few of these.
"Our system is slowing us down and we don't know why."
"We're scaling but the architecture wasn't designed for this."
"I need to know if what my vendor is building is actually good."
"We're raising a round and investors are asking about our tech stack."
"We had an incident and still don't know the root cause."
"I need a senior technical opinion, not just another developer."
"Our team is growing and we don't have an architecture strategy."
"We inherited a codebase and don't know what we're dealing with."
The alternative is guessing.
People come to us because they're tired of making big technical decisions on a hunch. They want someone who'll give them the honest picture instead of the comfortable one.
We don't tell clients what they want to hear. We tell them what their system actually needs, ranked by real risk, in plain terms that connect the technical side to what it means for the business.
