Hi there, I'm Alexandre!
I'm an engineer driven by curiosity, passionate about exploring new technologies, hands-on learning, and tackling challenges across backend, cloud and infrastructure, frontend, and AI engineering.
This blog is a space to share insights from my professional journey, practical guides, and stories about how I approach challenges in software development.
What I'm strongest at
- Backend & data
Django and Node.js services with GraphQL/REST, event-driven pipelines with worker pools and message queues, and query and SQL optimization on PostgreSQL.
- Cloud & DevOps
Azure, GCP and AWS with Terraform, Docker and Kubernetes. Infrastructure as code for automated, replicable and secure environments, backed by reliable CI/CD.
- Frontend architecture
Micro-frontends, monorepos, and shared code and tooling across web and native. From complex legacy applications to greenfield platforms.
- Engineering craft & OSS
Hands-on tech lead — architecture decisions with the PO and client, code review, and unblocking engineers, while still shipping production code daily. Sets standards and tooling used by 40+ engineers. Contributor to an open-source Django framework and maintainer of its companion NPM package suite.
