About

I am a fast learning professional, who loves problem solving and likes to keep an eye out for new technologies and solutions. Over the course of my career I have worked in many multidisciplinary teams, this allowed me to understand how every individual can contribute to the whole with their skills and knowledge. I’m also acquainted with OKRs, sprints and scrum techniques in general. Personally I am a friendly person, who likes video games and loves to cook, always testing new recipes and ingredients.

Experience

Full-Stack Engineer (Team Lead)
Lepaya
July 2021 - Present

At Lepaya we are at the forefront of mixing automated assignments with physical or virtual classes lectured by a trainer. We have a highly monolithic NodeJS application in the backend, but we aim on making it more decentralized. The frontend is done in Vue and database layer is PostgreSQL. My current team is focused on modernizing our user-facing apps, be it web or mobile.

Senior Fullstack Developer
Rodeo
May 2020 - June 2021

Rodeo's product is a Project Management Tool for creatives and companies that deal with freelancers and external contractors and need to organize payments and invoices. My work mainly revolves around modernizing our stack and creating new microservices in order to decouple a big legacy monolithic application written in NodeJS and MongoDB. Frontend work focuses mostly on improving the current UI that is built in React. For backend we use GCP's AppEngine and NodeJS, but we are starting to migrate into Go.

Senior Fullstack Developer
Scrambled BV
December 2018 - February 2020

At Scrambled I work on two main projects, Creassist and FromSam. The first is an experimental platform to prototype Google Assistant applications. One of the goals of this project is to create a WYSIWYG editor. So, extra care was put into matching the Assistant's style. FromSam is very different, it is focused on personalized beauty sampling. The main objective is to collect data from users in order to build a database and use that information to develop targeted sampling campaigns with cosmetics brands. Our tech stack is Typescript, NodeJS, React and Kubernetes.

Fullstack Developer
Winnin Brasil
April 2017 - November 2018

Winnin is one of the fastest growing brazilian startups. Its objective is to understand online video consumption and create video strategies for big brands. Some of the partners were Coca-Cola, Budweiser, Globosat, Stella Artois and Corona Extra. My main task was to develop the interface of a SaaS solution that is intended to make video audience analysis faster and more precise. ReactJS, Mobx and Jest were used for the website. I also developed NodeJS and Python backend APIs, crawlers and AWS integrations.
