I am Otavio,

I have made significant contributions to the Java and open-source ecosystems. Since Java 8, I have helped shape the direction and objectives of the Java platform as a member of the JCP Executive Committee. Additionally, I serve as a committer and leader in several open-source projects and specifications, showcasing my dedication to the community.

Recognized for my impactful work, I have received numerous accolades, including all categories of the JCP Awards and the Duke’s Choice Award. I am also a distinguished Java Champion and a member of the Oracle ACE program.

Beyond technology, I am an enthusiast for history and the economy. I love traveling, programming, and learning languages. I speak Portuguese, English, Spanish, Italian, and French fluently and have a particular talent for dad jokes.

Join me on this journey of technological excellence, where experience meets innovation. Together, we will advance in the ever-evolving landscape of software engineering.
