I'm Bruno.

Welcome to my blog! I write about my experience solving management and engineering problems in the context of startups. As I'm constantly learning new things along the way, topics will vary depending on what's most important to save for the future, as I'm creating a collection of resources of everything I think is relevant for building software and building and growing software companies.

That said, all timeless posts are tagged as Evergreen, for your convenience.

What do I do?

I am building Anzu, the OS for building products. In the remaining time, I'm studying Management and Technology at Technical University of Munich.

At the intersection of engineering and management

In recent years, I've worked primarily as a software engineer, building backend services handling millions of requests per day, using technologies like Golang, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, TypeScript, and Node.js. I've also spent a fair share of my time building frontend web applications using React.js, Apollo, and XState. In addition to full-stack web engineering, I'm also building mobile applications for iOS using Swift and SwiftUI/UIKit. While I love trying out new and experimental technologies, I strongly prefer battle-tested solutions and boring technologies for production systems.
