Senior Software Engineer specializing in full-stack web development and scalable backend systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 18 years building full-stack and backend systems, delivering solutions across Java, JavaEE, Spring Boot, React/Angular and Python ecosystems. I focus on clean architecture, microservices and performance improvements for high-volume applications.
In my current role at PUC-Rio I led traceability and data migration efforts (over 1M records), moved stateful systems to stateless REST APIs with JWT, and developed scalable job processing with MongoDB and Redis. I have a track record of improving legacy systems, front-end libraries, and integration routines for complex enterprise environments.
I value teamwork, quality and timely delivery, and I continually drive automation, testing and CI/CD practices. I am passionate about solving challenging problems, mentoring colleagues, and creating maintainable, high-performance software.
