Hey there β€” I’m Rafael! πŸ‘‹πŸŒ

Backend developer focused on APIs, automation, functional programming, and reliable systems βš™οΈπŸ”—
Currently based in Valdivia, Chile πŸ‡¨πŸ‡±

I’m a Computer Science graduate with First Class Honours from the University of Westminster πŸŽ“, and I enjoy turning complex workflows into simple, maintainable backend solutions.

My main areas of interest are:

  • Backend development 🐍 β€” APIs, business logic, validation flows, and service integrations
  • Functional programming πŸ§ͺ β€” especially Elixir, Phoenix, and FP-inspired approaches to resilient software
  • Automation πŸ€– β€” webhooks, workflow orchestration, process design, and real-world integrations
  • Infrastructure & deployment ☁️ β€” Docker, PostgreSQL, domain/DNS setup, SSL, CI/CD, and production-oriented tooling
  • System design 🧠 β€” building software that is clear, reliable, scalable, and easy to extend

A few projects I’m especially proud of:

  • LedgerBank API πŸ’³ β€” an enterprise-style financial services API built with Elixir, Phoenix, PostgreSQL, Oban, JWT auth, RBAC, structured error handling, caching, and CI/CD, designed around clean architecture and production-grade backend patterns
  • Tattoo Booking Bot πŸ’¬ β€” a production-hardened WhatsApp automation platform built with FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Stripe, Google Sheets, Google Calendar, and WhatsApp Cloud API, with booking workflows, idempotent webhooks, admin tools, reminders, and strong operational safeguards
  • OrigenLab 🧫 β€” a business website for a laboratory solutions company, built with Astro + Tailwind CSS and deployed with real hosting, DNS, SSL, and email/infrastructure setup

I’ve worked across Python, FastAPI, Elixir, Phoenix, JavaScript, PostgreSQL, Docker, Stripe, Meta Cloud API, Google Sheets, and Google Calendar πŸš€ with a strong focus on practical engineering, clean implementation, and real-world usability.

I’m especially interested in backend engineering, Elixir, developer tooling, automation, and scalable systems πŸ“¦βš‘ and I’m always looking to keep learning through hands-on projects and technical challenges.


Let’s connect 🀝

I’m also into philosophy, literature, poetry, politics, and neuroscience πŸ“šπŸ§¬ β€” always happy to connect with people building interesting things or thinking deeply about the world.
