I am Saul Hidalgo, a Computer Engineer, Senior Java Developer, and Founder of Saul Technologies, with more than 14 years of professional experience developing, maintaining, converting, and modernizing software.
I have contributed to systems used in national security and defense in the United Kingdom, document management, financial modeling, oil and industrial companies, retail businesses, scientific applications, and universities such as Harvard Business Publishing.
My main specialization is Java, but much of my work involves understanding complex existing systems, preserving their business logic, improving their architecture, migrating old technologies, and integrating software with databases, documents, hardware, and external services.
My experience includes:
• Java 8, 11, 17, and 21
• Spring Boot, Hibernate/JPA, Maven, Tomcat
• JavaFX, Swing, and Eclipse RCP
• REST APIs and system integrations
• PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MySQL, and SQLite
• Docker, Linux, Git, GitHub, Jira, and Slack
• OpenKM customization and maintenance
• Legacy software modernization
• Code and algorithm conversion
• POS, inventory, invoicing, and retail systems
One of my longest-running projects was Debrief, a maritime-analysis platform used in defense and national-security environments in the United Kingdom. I worked as a core developer for approximately six years and made more than 1,250 contributions.
My work included major features, maintenance, performance improvements, database integrations, user-interface components, media export, scripting integrations, and development related to Debrief NG and Debrief Lite.
I also have extensive experience with OpenKM Document Management System. I have developed workflows, automations, scheduled tasks, reports, metadata functionality, REST and Java API integrations, authentication integrations, retention processes, backups, upgrades, and custom extensions.
Another important area of my experience is legacy modernization and code conversion. Previous projects include:
• Converting a complex financial Excel model into pure Java for Forio and Harvard Business Publishing
• Translating more than 11,000 lines of Matlab code into C# for scientific simulations
• Converting hundreds of Excel VBA macros into Go
• Migrating Java applications to newer Java and library versions
• Porting algorithms between Java, Go, Python, C, C++, C#, Delphi, VBA, and Matlab
I do not treat code conversion as a simple line-by-line translation. I first understand the algorithms, data flow, dependencies, expected results, and edge cases, and then reproduce the same behavior in the target technology.
For desktop applications, I have developed custom JavaFX, Swing, and Eclipse RCP systems with specific user-interface requirements, MVC architecture, bindings, reusable components, installers, database integrations, reports, file processing, and specialized calculation tools.
I also have solid experience with POS and retail software. One of the systems I developed was deployed across 44 retail branches and included inventory management, invoicing, credit notes, fiscal and thermal printers, Zebra label printers, barcode readers, customer displays, user permissions, reports, and branch deployment.
I have a strong background in algorithms, data structures, dynamic programming, graph algorithms, string processing, and performance optimization. I previously taught Algorithms Laboratories at Universidad Simón Bolívar using Java and Python.
Before proposing a solution, I try to understand the real business requirement, current architecture, behavior that must be preserved, technical risks, and expected integrations.
For well-defined projects, I can provide a fixed-price proposal and delivery plan. For maintenance, modernization, debugging, or work involving an existing codebase, I prefer to review the project first and provide a realistic estimate.

I build the systems behind programmatic advertising — real-time bidders, OpenRTB integrations, Prebid Server setups, and high-throughput pipelines that process billions of ad requests without breaking a sweat. If you're running an ad exchange, DSP, or SSP and need it to be fast, reliable, and scalable, that's my core work.
What I specialize in:
- Real-time bidding systems and OpenRTB 2.x integrations (DSP/SSP/ad exchange)
- Prebid Server + mobile, GAM, and identity solutions (LiveRamp, ID5, UID2, TCF 2.0)
- High-throughput backends in Go and Node.js/TypeScript
- Data at scale: ClickHouse, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Aerospike
- Observability and infra: AWS, Docker, Prometheus/Grafana, OpenTelemetry
Beyond ad-tech, I'm a full-stack engineer comfortable across React/Next.js front ends, Python, and AI/LLM integrations (RAG, embeddings) — so I can take a system from the data layer to a working interface.
Recent work: I own and build a full programmatic ad-tech stack, currently evolving a DSP bidder service into a hybrid ad exchange — fanning out incoming SSP requests to external DSPs concurrently with an internal inventory auction, then running a unified final auction across both pools.
I'm Top Rated with a 100% Job Success Score across 7 completed contracts.
If you've got a bidding system, ad integration, or backend that needs to scale, send me a message with what you're building — I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit.
