What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead modernization of scalable data & AI platforms—governed, cost-efficient, and built for real-time analytics and agentic automation—working with cross-functional teams to deliver measurable business impact.

I’m a Data & AI Engineering professional with 8+ years designing and delivering modern data platforms that enable analytics, AI adoption, digital transformation, and measurable business outcomes. I specialize in architecting scalable Data and AI ecosystems across cloud environments, combining platform engineering, data governance, advanced analytics, and intelligent automation.

More recently, I’ve expanded my focus to AI Engineering and Agentic AI architectures, designing multi-agent systems and intelligent workflows to automate complex business processes and improve operational efficiency. I’ve led enterprise modernization efforts—cutting analytical platform costs by ~60% at ThoughtWorks and reducing manual operational effort by ~80% at Banco Bradesco—while delivering production-grade pipelines, audit/monitoring architectures, and Agentic AI solutions using CrewAI and foundation models.
