About Me

Humans for the win!

You don’t want to risk your customer’s satisfaction and your sales.
You need a translator capable of understanding and clearly conveying the cutting-edge technology of your products.

That’s me, Pedro Serra.

Proper Tech Training

I’m always interested in the “how” and “why”. I love tech and health and these topics steered my solid formal training:

BSc in Biomedical Sciences
Master’s (MEng) in Electrical Engineering
Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering

I’m curious by nature and I believe in the changing power of technology, provided its use is accompanied by clear and accurate information. That is my mission: to provide Portuguese translations with a natural reading tone and reliable information.

Adequate Translation Experience

13 years in the translation industry and APTRAD member
More than 3 million translated, reviewed, and localized words for user interfaces, product labeling, instructions for use, marketing, and video content in:

Education and science communication
Medical Instrumentation
Health and well-being
Electrical Engineering
Information Technology
Software and Games

In my spare time, I’m also an Acrobatic Gymnastics coach: I teach children with 6+ years and their smiles prove that my messages get through. As the president of the club, with 7 coaches under my guidance, my time management skills are also honed.

As a writer in my native language, this is how I would describe my style

I aim to have my texts with a Flesch–Kincaid score below 65 to ensure their readability and natural tone. When the texts are more technical I prioritize their scientific accuracy.

My professional methodology for a standard translation project is

Communication is paramount for the success of our partnership. First things first:

Clarification of the translation’s subject, budget, deadline, and tone;
Thorough reading of the documents for translation, clarifying any unclear terms (directly with the client or through research);
Translation of the document with the help of a translation memory manager and a grammar tool;
Proofreading of the final file, ensuring the file’s readability and accuracy;
Delivery of the file within the deadline.
