About
My name is Deny Dias (a.k.a. @denydias) and I build software and services for humans.
Currently I hold the chief of product and operations position at eDok.
In a sentence: I'm what people call a full-stack software developer, a DevOp or whatever the hype word for someone who masters the whole tech cycle may be.
I'm specialist at systems design, specification, development, deployment and the life-cycle of mission-critical operations, both on-premises and in the cloud. I have a solid career in streaming media and digital asset management segments, with emphasis on massive content acquisition, processing, storage, reuse and distribution. I also have huge experience with many IT infrastructure related areas.
