## About

```text
At Cofinpro Lda, I work on digital platforms for one of Germany's largest investment banks, including client-facing websites and investment fund platforms that provide fund information and performance data. I build backend services and shared UI component libraries using Java, Spring and Vue.

I also build and maintain deployment pipelines, infrastructure and databases, and helped deploy a project to production. My work includes Kafka-based messaging systems and data archiving solutions.

At Opensoft, I developed Java and Spring Boot backend services for platforms centralizing administrative information about EU goods, integrating them with web services. I also built React features with an Oracle database and automated tests in JUnit and Cypress.

For my Master's thesis project at Opensoft, I designed and built a Java SonarQube plugin that enforces Spring framework coding rules, using the Sonar API for AST scanning. I also built backend services during my Software Engineering Internship at Opensoft for the IRC corporate income tax declaration project.
