I contribute to software localization and linguistic review in European Portuguese (pt-PT), with work across 100+ open-source and software projects.
My approach goes beyond literal translation:
- Natural and idiomatic European Portuguese
- UI and functional context
- Consistent terminology
- pt-PT / pt-BR distinction
- Technical terminology and software conventions
- Proofreading and linguistic QA
- Accessibility and user-facing clarity
Good localization should feel as if the product was originally written for its users — not translated for them.
A collection of browser tools I build and maintain for automation, media workflows, productivity and UX improvements.
Portuguese subtitles community platform that I own and administer, while contributing to its development, moderation and subtitle workflows.
Moderator and metadata contributor, helping improve the accuracy, consistency and completeness of metadata in Portuguese.
European Portuguese translation and review across a broad range of software and open-source projects, with particular attention to terminology, UI context and linguistic consistency.
Selected contributions include Mozilla, Proton, Bitwarden, Notepad++, Subtitle Edit, AntennaPod, Stremio and MagicMirror².
