I'm Christopher Silva a Software Engineering Leader, passionate about football, people and technology. I have worked for over +10 years in web applications, e-commerce systems and integrations, providing/developing solutions, building teams and consultancy for companies around South America and Europe. In my daily routine I usually drink a lot of coffee and I use and abuse of Linux. Vagrant, docker, puppet/chef and Jenkins are my best friends if we talk about providing a consistent development and deployment environment (CI).
