Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPedro Dos Santos is a seasoned Java engineer and Apache Wicket PMC committer with 15 years of experience building server-side web applications and libraries. Based in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, he combines deep expertise in Java, Hibernate, Spring, SQL and OO design with hands-on contributions to the Apache Wicket core and wicketstuff projects—authored features that export Wicket table components to XLS and strengthened framework test coverage. He has a background as a consultant and software architect, having taught advanced Java and Wicket courses and driven web development at companies including ThoughtWorks and Arezzo. Pedro is comfortable across the stack from HTML and jQuery to back-end integrations and reporting (JasperReports), and he focuses on reliable, testable components rather than one-off hacks. His open-source work shows attention to edge cases (resource handling, form/button semantics) that improves framework robustness for downstream users. Skilled at turning framework-level insight into practical features, he blends community stewardship with production delivery.
