From a PlayStation-obsessed kid in a small Portuguese town to a software engineer at Spider AF, Pedro Rosa's path is anything but ordinary. He's traded Taekwondo and Boxing for surfing and fatherhood — but the drive to keep learning never left. Get to know the man who'd call out Bob Marley for skipping doctor's appointments.
My name is Pedro, I was born and raised in a little town called S. Pedro do Estoril with my grandparents and my mom in Portugal. I love to surf, play sports (both electronic & regular sports), and spent time with my little kid (Benjamin), my girlfriend, and my friends.
Since I was a little kid I had a lot of contact with video games, starting with my first console, the PlayStation. The consoles always amazed me because I couldn't figure out how they created games. So that was what led me to find Computer Science more and more interesting growing up.
I'm proud of working at this company each and every day :)
I did Taekwondo, Boxing & Kickboxing, and also Dancing.
I usually spend my weekends with my little Benjamim and also surfing.
In two words, I would say the people at Spider AF are ‘people oriented’.
I would say Vietnam. All of the places I visited there were super beautiful.
Always keep learning because technology won't stop for you.
I would invite Bob Marley (to b*tch at him about why he didn't treat himself, would have loved to see a concert of him)
