Victor Moraes

Software Engineer at Boston Consulting Group
I create web applications and data pipelines to increase corporate efficiency and deliver strategic value.

Bio

I've been fascinated with computers since I was a kid. In my teenage years, I dabbled with Pascal and Ruby and created some text-based games inspired by Dwarf Fortress.

In college I became more serious about programming, learning Python, developing numerical solving tools, simple animations, taking part in Artificial Intelligence study groups and attending cryptography events.

In my professional life, I have had the priviledge of working in a government agency, in a software house and in a Big Four consultancy firm. I work closely to the clients' needs to develop web applications and data pipelines with a variety of technologies.

In 2024, I earned an AWS certification for Solutions Architect (Associate), attesting my solid understanding of how to leverage the cloud to build static and dynamic web applications, databases, to implement caching, security, and much more.

In my free time, you will find me learning languages (currently, Mandarin Chinese), swimming, running, and singing at karaokes.

Caveat: For confidenciality reasons, I cannot showcase work delivered to most clients. The work below was developed in my spare time over several years, so its consistency can vary.

I was studying Chinese and I decided it was too much trouble to type the transcriptions and record audio for every flashcard I created. So I decided to automate it using a Go library and Amazon's voice synthesizer.
