What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, teamwork, and growth opportunities.

With over 11 years of experience in software development, I specialize in backend technologies, particularly Java, Kotlin, and Typescript. My journey has been marked by a commitment to building robust microservices and REST APIs, ensuring seamless integration and high performance in production environments. I thrive in remote settings, collaborating effectively with teams to deliver innovative solutions.

Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Backend Specialist and Senior Software Engineer at leading companies like iFood and Kamino. My responsibilities have included defining architecture for new microservices, conducting integration tests, and mentoring junior developers. I take pride in my ability to solve complex production issues and enhance system observability through TDD and clean code practices.
