## About

```text
At Novibet, I develop and evolve backend services for online casino and sportsbook platforms using C# and .NET. I work on features for gamification and social interactions, with a focus on scalability, performance, and reliability.

At Techfin ERP Finance - uma empresa TOTVS e Itaú, I developed and maintained financial systems for card and Pix payments. Technical improvements and fixes helped reduce the incident backlog by over 90%.

At XP Inc., I contributed to modernizing investment club administration systems and optimizing database queries, reducing response times from approximately 200ms to 5ms. Earlier at Itaú Unibanco, I worked on financial platforms, including improvements that increased transaction processing capacity by 200%.
