About

A bit about me

Full Stack Software Engineer with 5+ years building systems that solve real problems.

Specialized in architecting and implementing scalable, secure solutions — from well-structured microservices to REST APIs that are actually intuitive to use. Particularly focused on application security and LGPD compliance, with hands-on experience as a Security Champion driving secure-by-default practices.

As a Tech Lead, I've learned to balance technical decisions with tight deadlines, mentor developers, and keep critical systems running in fast-paced agile environments.

Comfortable moving between robust backend architecture and complex frontends, always seeking the balance between clean code and delivering value.
