What I'm looking for

I’m available for consulting projects and leadership roles in platforms, IT governance and AI engineering.

At Falabella, I execute enterprise workflow standardization and portfolio governance across Jira Data Center and Jira Cloud, creating a foundation for performance and quality metrics. I also develop AI-powered Jira workflows using Vertex AI and Gemini.

I played a pivotal role in migrating hundreds of projects from Jira Data Center to Jira Cloud, developing and automating critical migration phases. I also make Jira data accessible through the corporate BigQuery Data Lake for analysis.

Before Falabella, I was a Senior Atlassian Consultant at VATES - Software and founded XaviWare Software Ltda., where I led the development and international commercialization of security software. I’m available for consulting projects and leadership roles in platforms, IT governance and AI engineering.
