+# 👋 Hi, I'm Jota (pronounced as Jay in English)
+
+> Building software for real-world problems. Self-hosting whenever it makes sense.
+
+## 🧑‍💼 About Me
+
+I'm a Brazilian software engineer, entrepreneur and founder focused on building software that helps businesses work better.
+
+My work is centered around business platforms, automation, infrastructure and developer tooling. I enjoy understanding how systems work from top to bottom, from frontend interfaces to backend architecture, networking and deployment.
+
+I believe good software should simplify people's work instead of creating another dashboard to babysit.
