Senior Engineer

Hey,

Nice to meet you. My name's Gabriel, I'm a father of 2, based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!

I'm a software engineer with over 10Y of XP working in various domains, ranging from e-commerce, to fintechs, to construction and classical financial market. I've got a bachelor degree in CS in a notable Brazilian university and in terms of hard skills I have worked with a lot of different technologies in my career. In my 2 most recent gigs, I acted as a Python developer, but I also have had a lot of experience with C# and Go. 

While I primarily focus on the backend and its challanges, I can also handle frontend work when necessary.

Maybe it's also important to mention that I'm currently very comfortable working remotely. I've been doing this with teams in Canada and the US since around 2020, when the pandemic outbreak occurred.

Finally, here's why I'm creating this profile here: In the past couple years I became really passionate about blockchain technology, specially the DApps and DeFi space, which I'm currently exploring as an enthusiast. I'd really love an opportunity to talk to you about getting a chance to join this domain working as a developer. I can assure you that I can deliver and make impact wherever I go,
