I modernize mission-critical backend platforms, distributed systems, and payment services with Node.js, Java, Python, and AWS.
What I'm looking for
At SimWorx, I modernize mission-critical Oil & Gas applications for Petrobras, leading a three-engineer team through upgrades of three Python/Django systems. I also helped migrate asynchronous well-analysis workloads to Amazon SQS, reduced Jenkins deployment time by about 55%, and improved a Java/Spring Boot workflow processing more than 1,000 wells.
I've built Pix and BolePix payments at General Shopping, multi-tenant services and chatbot integrations at Hero99, and commerce and legal analytics features across Node.js, TypeScript, Python, Java, AWS, and cloud-native architectures. I enjoy solving complex backend problems with clean architecture, pragmatic decisions, and maintainable software design.
