About

Hi, I’m Tomaz Fernandes.
I’m a software engineer with 10+ years of experience, based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
I write about distributed systems: reliability, observability, messaging, and shipping small, reversible, production-safe changes. This site is where I publish technical notes, mental models, and occasional deep dives.
About my OSS work
