I secure cloud platforms and AI agents through offensive, automated security engineering.
What I'm looking for
At Zippi, I secure production AI agents and rebuild security operations so agents handle recurring work for a Brazilian credit fintech. Previously at KnowBe4, I automated security operations and built cybersecurity tools using Python, Terraform, AWS, CI/CD, Localstack, multiple LLM models, and AI agents.
I've led offensive security, AppSec, cloud, Kubernetes, vulnerability management, and DevSecOps initiatives at Rocket.Chat and Pipefy, while building security teams for high-growth companies. As a founder and hacking educator, I created an educational phishing-simulation product and enjoy making complex security concepts accessible in English and Portuguese.
