About

I'm Jose Armando, a backend developer with over +3 years of experience in building scalable, efficient, and well-structured systems. My interest in technology started when I was 10, after taking apart a game console out of pure curiosity — and I haven't stopped exploring how things work ever since.

I wrote my first lines of code on public computers, an experience that taught me adaptability and practical problem-solving. Today, I apply that same mindset when designing distributed systems, with a focus on architectural clarity, operational efficiency, and documentation that truly supports the team.

My first serious language was PHP, but I found in Go a stack that matches how I think: simple, expressive, and straight to the point. I work in Linux environments, where the CLI is my go-to tool for managing systems, debugging services, and deploying with precision and control.

The gopher lives in my stack… and yes, also on my desk.
