Breno Silva
Senior Software Engineer
About me
Hello! I'm Breno, a Software Engineer seasoned in Web Development, DevOps, Python, and Machine Learning Engineering. Constantly trying to improve my developer skills by learning how things work in the background. I use Neovim with TMUX and I like typed languages like Golang and Rust.
Currently residing in the Netherlands, my roots are in Brazil. My diverse experiences also include serving as a police officer for five years, where I launched "InfrAÇÕES", a mobile application with over 100k active users that aims to make traffic law accessible to everyone.
My nickname comes from a college joke combining Breno + Gandalf. I'm a lifelong learner, my journey in coding began at the age of 11 and continues passionately to this day.
