I also took part in designing and quality-assuring the data models used for platform revenue recognition. At Connectly.ai, I handled client billing across the company and managed payroll for the Brazilian subsidiary. I designed the data infrastructure for pricing and billing, implemented ETL processes, and migrated data visualization from Looker Studio to QuickSight. At REPS & CO., I managed a portfolio of over 15M USD, achieving a 20% margin with no sales below 4%. I created Tableau visualizations for revenue management and helped implement AI, machine learning, and automation initiatives. At ROBINFOOD, I analyzed margins, demand, and operational data, helping achieve savings equivalent to 1 percentage point of margin and 88% accuracy in daily demand prediction per store and product. I also developed production and distribution recommendation algorithms that saved about 10 hours of resource time per week. ``` ## Experience ### Finance Operational Excellence Manager (current) [Rappi](https://himalayas.app/companies/rappi).
