🎙️ From #Engineer Period. to #TypeScriptChampion – The Lucas Santos Journey!
What does it take for someone who simply calls himself “an engineer, period.” to become a #MicrosoftMVP, a former #GoogleDeveloperExpert, and the first Brazilian #TypeScriptChampion - all while shaping communities and educating thousands across #Brazil?
In this powerhouse episode of #TheTechSharmitPodcast (Expert Talks), I sit down with Lucas Santos — an engineer whose journey blends curiosity, technical depth, community leadership, and the courage to build without boundaries.
Together, we explore the insights, lessons, and stories that shaped his evolution:
🔹 What calling yourself “an engineer, period.” truly means after a decade in the industry
🔹 What becoming the first Brazilian TypeScript Champion represents for Lucas — and for the entire Brazilian developer ecosystem
🔹 The hard engineering lesson he learned the long way, which he now teaches his students early
🔹 Recurring misconceptions developers have when learning backend for the first time
🔹 What a healthy tech community really looks like — and how Lucas helped shape Vue.js SP, JavaScript SP, NodeBR, and TypeScriptBR
🔹 A small engineering decision that created massively positive impact in production
🔹 What technology is overrated… and which one is still underrated
🔹 The part of his journey no one ever asks about — but that influenced everything he built
🔹 How he decides which topics are worth turning into blog posts or YouTube videos
🔹 And the mentors and guiding forces who shaped his leadership, discipline, and engineering philosophy
Lucas shares some incredibly candid reflections in this episode — especially about Erick Wendel, Ryan Dahl, Linus Torvalds, Raphael Amorim, Colin McDonnell, Bill Joy, Dennis Ritchie and Douglas Engelbart, You don’t want to miss it. 🎧✨
