José Mota — Web engineer & architect

About

Me — José Mota

I am a 23 year old portuguese web designer / developer / engineer / architect (I’m the one on the left). I live in Gaia, Portugal.

Hobbies

  • I dance. A LOT! From salsa to tango, ending in kizomba. I started to dance since 2004 and never ended. I am now taking tango lessons with Oscar & Gladys.
  • I ride a ‘98 Suzuki GSX-R 600 SRAD.
  • I hang out with the family.
  • I socialize on the web via Twitter, blogs and sometimes IRC.
  • I teach about web design and Rails, amongst other miscellaneous stuff, when opportunities come.

My work

My expertise focuses in 3 different branches:

Website design

Do you want a website to show off your business through the Internet? From the drawing board all the way to web standards design results, in your browser. You might even want to integrate a design with a CMS (such as Wordpress or Drupal) for easier maintenance.

Web application design & development

You might need an application for you to access anywhere, anytime, the easy way. Web standards, ease of use and state-of-the-art technology. I provide engaging applications in Ruby on Rails with special concern in user interaction / experience.

Application engineering / architecture

I also perform consulting, engineering & architecting services regarding small to large projects, in case you need to fulfill a need through a system that has important requirements and demands special analysis and application design and management.
