Senior🎓
Top SchoolGabriel Alves is a software developer with 10 years of experience blending backend, embedded and research backgrounds, currently leading Elixir backend efforts for US clients from Brazil. He migrated monolithic PHP systems to Elixir/Phoenix microservices, built scalable real-estate commission engines, and operates Kubernetes workloads across Google Cloud and AWS. His embedded work spans Rust, C, and Legato-based IoT firmware coupled with cloud IoT platforms, reflecting end-to-end system ownership from device to API. Early research at UFRGS produced an Eclipse extension that applied ML to discover hidden architectural rules, showing a practical intersection of academic insight and production engineering. Passionate about functional programming and clean code, he consistently moves between low-level embedded constraints and high-level distributed architectures to deliver pragmatic solutions.
