I'm a Software Engineer with over two years of experience developing, maintaining, and modernising mission-critical public-sector systems. I began my career at the State Finance Secretariat (SEFAZ-TO) , where I worked on tax platforms relied upon across an entire Brazilian state — the kind of systems where reliability isn't a nice-to-have, it's everything.

Working on large-scale production systems taught me that software engineering is about much more than writing code. It requires understanding business rules, analysing existing systems, making safe architectural decisions, and delivering reliable solutions that users can depend on.

Today, I focus on modern backend engineering — building robust, scalable systems with clean architecture and a strong testing culture. I'm currently based in Dublin, Ireland.

• Hired to develop new applications, then entrusted with maintaining critical legacy systems due to my ability to understand complex, poorly-documented codebases and deliver changes safely in production
• Implemented enhancements and critical fixes to core tax platforms — GIAM and DIF — built with Delphi and GeneXus
• Contributed to the development of new internal systems and built features using Java and JavaScript
• Mentored interns and represented the organisation at the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) Congress

• Deepening expertise in Python, FastAPI, and REST API design
• Building containerised applications with Docker
• Implementing robust CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions
• Expanding into AI engineering and LLMs through hands-on projects
• Strengthening fundamentals in cloud-native development

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills — I understand the problem before writing a line of code
• Codebase fluency — I quickly read and reason about unfamiliar, complex codebases
• Production reliability — I've maintained high-availability systems where downtime wasn't an option
• Modern backend development — Python, FastAPI, REST APIs, SQL, and modern development practices
• Agile foundation — Solid grounding in Scrum and Kanban
• Continuous learning mindset — A genuine passion for building reliable software and growing alongside experienced teams

I'm open to opportunities as a Software Engineer or Backend Engineer in Ireland, where I can contribute to building reliable, scalable systems while continuing to grow alongside experienced engineering teams.

Building reliable systems, one well-thought-out commit at a time.
