Staff Engineer @ Itaú Unibanco · São Paulo, Brazil 🇧🇷
Building reliable, cloud-native banking platforms at scale.
I'm a software engineer with 10+ years of experience who cares about best practices, agile methods, automated testing, observability, simplicity and DevOps principles.
Today I work with microservices in the banking sector, dealing with high-availability architectures, infrastructure as code and cloud-native applications. As a Staff Engineer, I design and lead systems that operate at scale, and I help teams deliver maintainable software through clear architecture, pragmatic processes and sustained technical mentorship. ✨
In my spare time I study algorithms, observability and architecture — always looking for better, more efficient ways to do my work.
