I'm Hugo, an 18-year-old full-stack developer looking for job opportunities.

I've been programming almost daily for the past 5 years, starting as a hobby that became my primary focus and passion in life. I've developed strong skills in software development and computer systems through curiosity-driven learning. Now that I'm transitioning to professional work, I'm specializing in TypeScript to land my first role as a full-stack developer in Brazil's growing tech market.

I focus on building backend systems with Node.js and TypeScript, and I'm expanding into frontend development with React and Tailwind. I'm passionate about computer science.

• AI-assisted development: I use Claude to streamline repetitive tasks (tests, boilerplate, research). I review and understand all code before it ships — not vibe coding, intentional tooling.
• Tool selection: I leverage AI to find the best tools for the job, and I prefer opinionated, popular frameworks and libraries that build actual, transferable knowledge.
• Code philosophy: Simplicity first — enough to convey meaning and integrity. I avoid comments unless the code is genuinely complex (rare); good code should be self-explanatory.
• Git discipline: Feature branches, conventional commits, small PRs for a linear workflow. This keeps history clean and review-friendly.
• Consistency: I care deeply about naming conventions, opinionated structure, and established patterns. Consistency makes code predictable and maintainable.
