Senior Software Engineer
Building Scalable Products, From Architecture to Production.

Senior Software Engineer · Tech Lead · Product Builder · AI-Driven Development · Brazil / US

I've spent nearly 20 years building software, from early-stage products to production systems used by thousands of people across Brazil, the United States, and Latin America. I work across the full product lifecycle — architecture, frontend, backend, mobile, cloud infrastructure, integrations, and technical leadership — with a strong focus on building systems that are reliable, scalable, and maintainable.

Beyond client work, I've also built and launched my own products. CertificaWP has issued more than 100,000 certificates across four countries, while Quiz.me grew to 75,000 users within its first months.

AI has become a core part of how I build software. I work daily with AI-assisted and agentic development, using AI agents to accelerate implementation, research, debugging, testing, and code analysis while applying nearly two decades of engineering experience to validate architecture, security, performance, maintainability, and business rules. My goal isn't simply to generate code faster — it's to use AI to ship better software faster without lowering engineering standards.
