about
Hi. I’m Felipe Cardozo, or just frai.
Software engineer from Macaé, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, graduated at Computer Engineering.
I like the lower layers: runtimes, networking, streaming systems and the tooling around them. Most of my work in the last years landed in open source repositories, in Rust, TypeScript, OCaml, Go and Elixir. The pull requests are in contributions, the side quests in projects.
Currently at Cumbuca.
Before that, Deno, InfinyOn and Marigold.
