Hey there 👋

I’m Guilherme Tavares, a Senior Software Engineer currently building cool stuff at Trout Software with Go 🐹.

I’ve been coding for over a decade, working across backend, frontend, and cloud. Along the way I’ve led engineering teams, shipped products in fintech and SaaS, and learned a lot about building systems that scale and last.

💻 Things I enjoy working with:

  • Go, Java, Scala, Python, TypeScript
  • AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD
  • Microservices, event-driven systems, distributed architectures
  • Helping teams grow and deliver awesome products 🚀

✨ Some highlights:

  • Led engineering teams at some cool companies, guiding devs and shipping impactful software
  • Represented one of them at Web Summit (Lisbon) to showcase our fintech innovation
  • Designed and deployed CI/CD pipelines that boosted productivity and code quality

🍻 Fun stuff about me:

  • Big fan of a good pint of Guinness
  • Gamer at heart 🎮
  • Collector of random facts nobody asked for — like: Did you know octopuses have three hearts, and two of them stop beating when they swim? 🐙

🌍 Currently based in Dublin, Ireland 🇮🇪
