What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a software development internship where I can build backend APIs and distributed systems while growing through practical engineering work.

I've built BET Distribuída, a Go-based betting system with three independent servers, replicated state, and a token ring for distributed mutual exclusion. I also implemented end-to-end authentication for the 4Vote web platform using NestJS, JWT, bcrypt, and protected routes.

As a researcher on UEFS's PathoSpotter project, I implemented two machine learning algorithms for drug-target affinity prediction, corrected data leakage and memory failures, and created a unified evaluation pipeline. I'm pursuing a software development internship while completing my Computer Engineering degree.
