🧠 Profile
A Fullstack/DevOps Engineer driven by a genuine commitment to code elegance and system robustness. I pay particular attention to details, technical consistency, and the quality of the final product. For me, clean development relies on a structured approach: tests, documentation, code reviews, continuous coverage.
A curious autodidact, I regularly train on topics that drive me—from backend to frontend, including automation and deployment pipelines—through concrete or personal projects. I enjoy exploring modern frameworks, optimizing workflows, and sharing what I learn.
My approach is structured yet adaptable: it relies on technical clarity, constant team interactions, and short feedback loops for fine-tuned iterations.
Recognized for my constant energy, pedagogical skills, and my ability to move projects forward with pragmatism, I’m fully committed—with the ambition to bring both technical value and meaning.
I strongly value knowledge sharing: I regularly practice pair programming, informally train colleagues on my areas of expertise, write internal tutorials, and have led several technical training sessions within companies.
I’m also comfortable in coordination roles: I’ve led multi-actor projects, facilitated cross-functional working groups, and contributed to technical team structuring.
