Senior🎓
Top SchoolGonçalo Tomás is a software engineer based in Almada, Portugal, with 11 years of professional experience and a master's in Computer Engineering from NOVA. He has strong backend and full-stack expertise, particularly with Erlang and Elixir, and a track record of shipping production features, improving developer experience, and reducing latency in large-scale annotation systems. At TripleKey he was the first engineering hire after the lead, owning customer-facing features and product tradeoffs; at V7 he cut a critical deletion p95 by 90% and helped harden CI checks. He quickly adapted to Elixir at Remote, contributed to API webhook infrastructure, and even hosted a company-wide Elixir reading group, showing both technical depth and a commitment to knowledge sharing. He’s experienced in migrations, idempotency design, and interviewing/hiring, combining practical distributed-systems skills with product-minded collaboration. An eclectic detail: his GitHub bio reads “Beep boop boop beep,” hinting at a lighthearted, curious approach behind a solid engineering pedigree.
