João Peluci

Software Engineer

I'm a software engineer who loves building things. Outside work you'll also find me deep in:

🎵 MPB & Clube da Esquina — Milton Nascimento, Lô Borges, and everything in between
🖥️ Hardware — GPUs, CPUs, cooling setups — I enjoy building and upgrading my own PC
🛠️ Fixing things — if it's broken, I'd rather repair than replace
📱 Gadget tech — always following the latest hardware and software releases
