## About

```text
I'm currently at REIVAX Automação e Controle (WEG Group), validating and factory-testing power-generation equipment and electrical panels. I trace hardware and software/firmware, analyze as-built documentation, and report quality results and anomalies.

I simulate generators and turbines with speed and voltage regulators, then test electronic modules, power system stabilizers, and digital synchronizers. I also install and commission equipment at power plants, performing adjustments, electrical tests, and technical support.

Previously, I supported panel assembly verification at REIVAX by interpreting electrical diagrams and control schematics, running continuity tests, validating components, and identifying nonconformities. My work is grounded in quality, safety, and reliable field execution.

My earlier experience spans IT support, e-commerce operations, healthcare document management, and physics teaching. I bring Automation & Control Engineering training alongside Python, networking, cybersecurity fundamentals, and electrical-safety training.
