About

Olá!

My name is Pedro Augusto, I’m a 25-year-old Brazilian, and now I’m lifting the hood of Rails to deeply understand how it works and sharing everything I learn on this blog.

I work as a senior developer and technical lead at a company in the financial sector, where I develop and maintain various Rails applications, ranging from versions 4 to 7, including both APIs and full-stack applications. Besides Rails, I also handle DevOps tasks, containerizing applications with Docker, setting up CI/CD pipelines with GitLab, and using APM tools to monitor applications in production (oh, and I manage the squad as well).

The reason I’m writing on this blog is that I’ve reached a point where I can no longer be just a Rails user. Even though I’m a good user, knowing how to use it, where to find information when I need it, and how to solve most problems that arise, I need to master it more deeply because the issues I’m facing daily require more than just user knowledge.

In this regard, I’m going to start studying Rails like a doctor studies the human body, understanding every part of it in depth. The goal is to be able to solve the cutting-edge problems, the 1% that nobody knows how to solve. And I’ll share everything I discover here.

Welcome!
