Hernán Ismael Galíndez (born 30 March 1987) is a professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Argentine Primera División club Huracán. Born in Argentina, he represents the Ecuador national team.

Born in Argentina, he began his career in Argentina with Rosario Central before settling in Ecuador with Universidad Católica, where he made over 300 appearances in a nine-year spell. In 2022, he joined Universidad de Chile but left the club after six months, citing harassment from the club's fanbase. He returned to Ecuador with Aucas, helping the side win the first title in the club's history in his debut season. After a one-and-a-half-year stint in Aucas, he returned to his birth country as he signed with Argentine club, Huracán.
