Hi, I'm Pedro Soares, a passionate full-stack developer with 0 years of professional experience. I specialize in building robust APIs and modern web applications, focusing on TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Next.js, and Docker.
About Me
What excites me most about programming is tackling complex challenges and finding elegant solutions. I thrive on the satisfaction of solving problems and am passionate about writing clean, readable, and maintainable code. My main stack includes TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, C#, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Docker, and Grafana. I also have experience with Java, Python, Angular, Svelte, and React Native. I’m always eager to deepen my expertise and explore new technologies.
Outside of coding, I love spending time with my son (proud dad!), caring for my pets, playing guitar, watching movies and TV shows, and gaming. I’m passionate about continuous learning. Currently, I’m training and learning Padel.
