About me
I'm a Software Engineer from Maceió, a beautiful city in the Northeast of Brazil.
On my 12 years of experience, I worked mostly as a backend developer, but have passed through the whole stack.
For the past few years, I've been working mostly with Elixir and Phoenix, and have been in love with functional programming ever since. I've also been working with Ruby and Ruby on Rails, but not as much as I used to a few years ago.
My experience ranges from working as a solo developer in greenfield projects to leading teams of developers.
