What I'm looking for

I want to build resilient backend and AI platform systems—shipping reliable APIs, observability, and RAG/LLM orchestration. I’m excited by cloud modernization on AWS/Azure and teams that value developer productivity and fast, high-quality iteration.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years building resilient infrastructure and scalable backend systems in collaborative, agile environments. I’m driven by an early passion for technology, with early exposure to C and Linux through the Brazilian Informatics Olympiad and personal projects.

I cover the full lifecycle—from system design to high-performance APIs in Python, TypeScript, and Java. I’ve modernized platforms across AWS and Azure using Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes, with a focus on reliability, observability, and maintainable delivery.

At Goldman Sachs, I support critical global trading platforms and lead internal AI initiatives using RAG and LLM orchestration to improve reliability and developer productivity. I also built an AI-assisted incident response tool that queries live logs and documentation to accelerate detection and resolution of production anomalies.

Outside core work, I’m building AI-enabled products: yvy.app.br is an environmental observability platform integrating official ICMBio and FUNAI data, and JS Agent is a browser-first multi-step agent with hosted/local LLM routing, modular skills, orchestration, and durable memory/cache layers.
