Hoy! I'm a proud Portuguese citizen, based in Porto, in lovely Portugal, that loves traveling, culture, history, geography, music (rock, rap, hip hop, some trash metal), comedy, and ice-creams 🍦🍦 - life ain't funny without ice-creams!
I look at life as some sort of an unending fount of knowledge, there's always something you can learn or get better at, either professionally or personally.
I've been working remotely since January 2020, shortly before COVID. I have over 10 years of experience as a full stack developing SaaS products, using Typescript, Node, Deno, Javascript, REST APIs, Data Modeling, MySQL, Mongo, SPAs, PWAs, Stripe, Doppler, Flagsmith, React, Vue, jQuery, HTML, CSS, PHP, Laravel, React Native. Also worked with Phonegap Build and Framework7 for an Android/IOS app.
I consider myself a proactive worker, great learner, problem solver, out of the box and medium-long term thinker and I'm also very autodidactic (I acquired most of my knowledge by myself in my own spare time). I like writing flexible, scalable, maintainable clean code, therefore I tend to prefer quality over quantity. My major qualities are my proactiveness, learning capability, my autonomy and my relationship with others. I've worked many years in teams, but also as a solo developer. I like to teach and be taught.
I like to disentangle complicated processes, make what seems to be complicated actually easy to perform - such as taking candy from a kid, it seems trivial, but it's actually quite hard! I aim for nothing less than perfection. I'm one of those lucky people that actually loves his work, so in my own time, i also like to develop and sharpen my skills. I keep doing small personal projects to keep up to date to the latest technologies.
