What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote leadership or principal engineering opportunities across Europe where I can shape architecture, modernize platforms, lead teams, and deliver scalable business-critical systems.

I've delivered enterprise-scale software across Kaizen Gaming, VFX Financial PLC, Mercedes-Benz Portugal, Polisport, Lanidor, Voxelmaps, and Inovar +AZ Sistemas de Informação. My work spans Gaming, Financial Services, Automotive, Manufacturing, Retail, and location-based technology.

At Kaizen Gaming, I led a cross-functional engineering team delivering strategic initiatives, setting architecture and quality standards, managing technical risks, and supporting platform scalability. At VFX Financial PLC, I developed and maintained enterprise financial platforms for international operations, designing scalable .NET backend services.

I've led teams through the full software development lifecycle, shaped technical strategy, modernized platforms, and mentored developers. I bring a pragmatic approach to distributed systems, cloud-native solutions, DevOps, CI/CD, databases, integrations, and complex stakeholder-driven delivery.
