I create, maintain, and operate software.
I currently work at GitHub and maintain GoReleaser. I also have my own silly little software company.
When not working, I may just be out there being a dad, reading books, getting beat up at Jiu-Jitsu1, lifting (rather heavy) weights2, or just generally touching grass.
I’m interested in programming languages, Zeichenorientierte Benutzerschnittstellen3, containers, distributed systems, security, and monitoring. Feel free to ping me somewhere if you want to chat about any of that. 🙂
I live with my lovely wife Carine, our newborn Redated, and our dog Bash, in a small city in southern Brazil.4 5

I started training December 2025, so I’m still a very white belt. ↩︎

Fun fact: my deadlift 1RM is ~320kg. That was once upon a time when I was lifting rather seriously. Currently, it’s probably something slightly above 200kg on a good day. ↩︎

Zeichenorientierte Benutzerschnittstellen is German for character-oriented user interfaces - the command line. I was studying German at some point and found this expression quite amusing. ↩︎

Zakk, the Chinchilla in one of the pictures above, passed away in 2022. Rest in peace, my little friend — you are sorely missed. ↩︎

Small city: ~50k people, very rural, with a mostly German-influenced culture. No movies, shopping centers, big stores, etc. ↩︎
