Who I am

I am Raphael Pontes, a senior software engineer with over a decade of experience building products, participating in startups, leading technical initiatives, and delivering software in very different contexts, from freelance to production products.

My journey

My background spans web and mobile development, with a strong focus on Flutter, Laravel, REST APIs, and software architecture. Over the years, I’ve also worked with technical leadership, business intelligence, testing, clean architecture, relational and non-relational databases, Firebase, cloud functions, UI/UX, and project planning and execution.

I also have a strong relationship with creating and sharing knowledge. Beyond product and engineering work, I enjoy publishing videos, exploring new tools, and turning practical learning into useful content.

This blog

orapha.dev is my space to write more calmly about programming, patterns, architecture, artificial intelligence, and day-to-day technical decisions.

I’m not interested in technology as a showcase. I’m interested in technology as practice: what’s worth adopting, what unnecessarily complicates things, what ages well, and what really helps build better software.

That’s why this blog works as a public notebook of observations, experiments, and opinions. A place to taste technologies in a personal and thoughtful way.
