Eirmon John Paculan is a full-stack developer known online as riecodes. Based in Naic, Cavite and connected with Cavite State University-Naic Campus, he builds systems across web development, client work, academic projects, and applied technology.
Eirmon was part of DIPTek, the three-person student team behind AKWATEK. The team combined software development and aquaculture knowledge to create an AI-powered progressive web application that analyzes fish eye-darkening indicators as a possible signal of stress. Eirmon's main responsibility was full-stack development, while the experience taught him to work closely with a subject-matter specialist, respond to mentoring, and think about the business model surrounding a technical prototype.
He is also a co-founder of UpaMate, where he has contributed to the product from the ground up, including its landing page, application, interface quality, and client-facing workflows. His broader work reflects an interest in finding practical problems through conversations with users and collaborators, then organizing those needs into systems.
On Good To Live Podcast, Eirmon discusses rebuilding momentum, communication and networking, freelance contracts, dependable development, interdisciplinary teamwork, and his hope that the usefulness of his work will speak before his name does.
