A little more about me
I've been programming since I was about 14. I started as a PHP developer, which was my main
focus until 2008~9 when I discovered the Ruby on Rails ecosystem. Since then I have fallen in
love with the Ruby programming language and the architecture of Rails. By now, I don't limit
myself to a single technology or language, but on how to craft an idea in the best possible way.
I never got a technology degree nor I have gone to college, I'm self-taught and so I dedicated
my entire life and career in learning by practice. I would get the opportunity to work with great
programmers since I moved to live by myself in the capital of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (I was born
in a country town called Bom Jardim). This direction drove me to learn from great
professionals with as much passion in the area as myself. And as such, I also found myself
loving to learn new technologies and methodologies.
For that, I've always been grateful for this decision of learning through experience, but even so,
I'm looking for a graduation in the near future to expand my horizons.
I also love to write, and I have a personal blog where I regularly post tales and short stories of
the ctional drama, romance and horror genres (only in Portuguese at the time). My dream is
to one day publish my own book, and I'm already working on that!

Leonardo Pereira - Software Developer
I have been creating things as a hobby since I learned how to write and read. I started mostly
with RPGs and simple board games, and it's these challenges and experiences that have been
leading me to the successes on my career.
Some of the stu I've crafted that I love
Phynia
(phynia.html) My web-browser MMORPG. Created using Co eescript and Rails 4.0, with node.js
and a lot of awesome stu (like animations in browser!). It's under development.
VaiVendoApp!
Started as an MVP but became a very useful app to help me to lose and follow my weight. It
was written with Rails 4.2 and Bootstrap 3.
Mangrat
This was a funny one to create and a very useful too. It's a simple manga/HQ reader online,
which maps folders for IPs and chapters, and after that sets everything on the screen for an
smart reading. It does not use the old boring commom online system to change pages,
instead, it uses a very simple shortcut keys to handle the navigation and read the content,
besides o ering a clean UI. Was written in PHP and Javascript.
My Resumé
Freelancer / Imagineware

My rst job as a developer was a freelancer, more accurately: a PHP freelancer. I've worked
with di erent agencies and companies in Brazil in many projects, from hot sites to one of the
biggest ONG's in Brazil.
Some of my clients included: Spoleto, DKT, Cia Athletica, Beach Park, Use Reserva, Hangloose,

Idec, BCF Administradora, Agilità, Satisfeito.com, Yázigi Travel, Century 21, Nuuvem, Torta &
Cia, Langak, Rede D'or, Compra & Vendas and many others.
In 2011 I've founded my development company: Imagineware. With the aim to deliver more
professional jobs and projects than as a singular freelancer.
Silver n
Apr 2016 - June 2017
Full Stack Developer at Silver n, a user-friendly reporting tool for accountants. Main focus on
Ruby on Rails, Javascript and Co eescript, working remotely with a multi cultural team from
Europe. The challenges come since the language di erence (all the communication in
written/spoken english) and the high level of a international company. Scalability, code
reviews, end-to-end tests and code quality were a daily to do.
Skore.io
Oct 2014 - Jan 2016
Skore is a startup about connecting people to knowledge, where they can create or simply
share it inside the platform. I've ingressed the platform at the end of his rst year, where a lot
of programmers had passed before. My main focus as a developer was in Ruby on Rails, but
I've worked full-time as a FullStack Developer (html, js, css and rails). As the team has grow, the
technology applied has followed. We've crafted a SPA (Single Page Application) with
Marionette.js and served by an API in Rails (which I was the main developer).
Working for more than a year in a startup made me learn a lot of new technologies,
techniques, methodologies and experience true challenges in a little space of time.
Focusnetwork
Sep 2011 - Jul 2013
I've worked as one of the main developers for the company. Our focus was in third-party
developers to help us craft and deploy our projects, for that I also worked as a Technical
Leader.
Sportlog
Dec 2009 - Apr 2010
My rst startup experience. The Sportlog hired me (and C2 Design) while I was a Ruby
developer for them. Sportlog was a social network focused in Sports.
Agência Azul
Aug 2009 - Nov 2009

For a brief period of time (3 months) I've worked as a FullStack Developer to Agência Azul, at
the end of november I got back to C2 Design.
C2 Design
Jul 2008 - Jun 2010
My rst experience in an agency in my life. There I've met one of the greatest professionals of
my life, learned a lot and was the opportunity for a small kid from a small town to met the real
world.
