Hi! I'm Rui, a software engineer based in Aveiro, Portugal. I spent seven years researching how hospitals store and share medical images. Now I build streaming apps at Plex, and on weekends I'm usually on a trail.

The person behind the map
I got hooked on computers at sixteen and never really left. I studied Computer and Telematics Engineering in Aveiro, where a student project on medical imaging turned into seven years of research and a PhD on how hospitals share images. Today I build community features at Plex that people use on their phones, TVs and consoles.
Outside work, I'm a dad first. Weekends are for family, a trail in the mountains or a bike ride along old railway lines, usually with a camera close by. I like learning things just for the sake of it; right now that's German, one lesson at a time.
