What I'm looking for

I'm looking for work where I can solve complex industrial problems through automation, control systems, computational modeling, and data analysis.

I've maintained and improved automation and monitoring systems for Braskem's Mining and PVC-Utilities plants, serving as a technical focal point for reliability and safety compliance. I also designed and configured Yokogawa DCS systems, executed FAT/SAT tests, and supported commissioning and startup activities.

Today, as an Engineer and Technical Partner at VJ Engenharia e Consultoria, I develop industrial equipment models in Ansys Fluent and perform technical validation and data analysis using Python, VBA, Power BI, Seeq, and PI Vision. My background spans predictive maintenance dashboards, PLC configuration, robotics algorithms, and healthcare-data algorithms.
