Robson Alves — AI-First Software Engineer

about()

// personal_statement.js

AI-First Software Engineer with 12+ years of experience shipping production systems at scale.

Currently at GoDaddy, building real-time commerce reporting on event-driven pipelines. Also founder of TalkLikeADev — an AI voice platform with multi-agent orchestration, MCP servers, and real-time WebRTC streaming.

When I'm not shipping code, I'm probably orchestrating AI agents, deploying MCP servers, or wondering why my Docker container works on my machine but not in production. // classic
