What I'm looking for

I seek a hands‑on development role where I can build user‑centric web apps, work with AI integrations, and grow into technical leadership within a collaborative, innovation‑focused team.

I am a full‑stack software developer with hands‑on experience building performant web applications using Next.js, Svelte and backend APIs. I translate broad product goals into clean, responsive, mobile‑first interfaces and reusable components.

At Devscope I worked across front and back ends, implemented ISR for fast content updates, and built robust APIs with Express.js and PostgreSQL. I also developed a Python (FastAPI) tool to unify access to multiple AI models and used Ollama for local model hosting.

I have set up multilingual documentation sites using MkDocs with custom HTML and Nginx, and I apply containerization and modern frontend tooling (Docker, TailwindCSS) to streamline development and deployment.

I hold a B.Sc. in Computer Science from Instituto Politécnico de Viseu and contributed to the EU‑funded Accelerat.ai consortium focused on Conversational AI and Portuguese cognitive services.
