At Afya, I work on the evolution of Portal Afya, connecting user journeys, analytics, monetization, generative AI, and platform reliability. I designed the technical plan for the portal’s first generative AI features, and the MVP of an LLM interaction button in articles has shipped.

At Globo, I turned four R&D initiatives into scalable products and helped reduce validation time for new business opportunities by 40%. I also reduced experimentation costs by 30% through cloud computing and process automation.

At Vagas Tecnologia de Software, I worked on AI-powered recruiting products, including matching and ranking improvements associated with a 30% reduction in average time-to-hire. Across my product work, I focus on connecting technology to real user needs and business outcomes, from discovery through product evolution.
