What I'm looking for

I’m seeking roles where I can own fullstack features and backend systems, improve developer productivity with internal tools, and work in teams that value clean architecture, testing and observability.

I am a Fullstack Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience building frontend applications with React, Next.js and TypeScript and increasingly focused on backend development using Node.js, AWS Lambda and relational databases. I have contributed to Brazilian startups, worked at a large software consultancy, and recently supported a YC-backed company through an acquisition, building reliable APIs, internal tools and observability into production systems.

I emphasize clean architecture, SOLID principles and practical monitoring to deliver maintainable systems; I also have hands-on experience with testing (Jest, Playwright, Cypress), GraphQL and SQL schema design and optimization. I enjoy creating internal tooling with Retool and automating workflows using AWS services to improve developer productivity and product reliability.
