Backend Software Engineer with 6+ years building Node.js and TypeScript systems end-to-end, from discovery to production.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Backend Software Engineer with 6+ years of experience owning Node.js and TypeScript systems—from product discovery through production—across startup and enterprise environments. I focus on building reliable backend capabilities that reduce operational drag and accelerate delivery.
At sFox, I led a Prisma v3-to-v6 migration with no production regressions, enabling stricter typing, schema modularization, and join-based queries that reduced query time by ~30%. I also built an Ember document-request workflow that replaced ad hoc email coordination, saving compliance teams about five hours per week, and introduced the first E2E test suite for critical workflows.
At Wiley, I modernized e-commerce systems through cloud migrations and automated testing. I led the migration from SAP to a Node.js architecture, cutting monthly operating costs by about $40K, and architected serverless workflows with Netflix Conductor and AWS Lambda to reduce operational costs by 20% while eliminating manual orchestration overhead. I grew automated test coverage to 80%+.
At Cargon, I was promoted twice in 18 months, progressing from Development Intern to Development Team Lead while building logistics and document-processing systems. I redesigned document-issuing workflows from ~two hours to five minutes, led a squad across architecture and delivery while mentoring 8+ developers, and transitioned processing to event-driven systems with Azure Functions and Service Bus. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science from UTFPR.
