Work Experience
2022
Head of DX
2022
After two years as a Senior Software Engineer at Harbour, I now lead our Developer Experience initiatives. My team is building APIs that developers actually enjoy using, with a focus on: - API-as-a-Product Mindset: Revolutionizing our approach by treating our API as a core product, not just an interface - Unified API Architecture: Leading the design of our API v2, which serves both internal and external users – creating better testing, consistency, and rapid improvements - Open Source: Bringing insights from my work on Polvo to improve our internal systems "A well-designed API isn't just about following REST principles - it's about creating a contract that developers actually want to use."

Creator
2024
Created an open-source API integration toolkit born from real-world integration challenges. Polvo standardizes third-party connections with built-in support for async operations, rate limiting, comprehensive logging, type safety, and unified pagination. Its value comes from deeply understanding developers' struggles with complex integrations, not just technical implementation.
2017 - 2021
Tech Lead
2017 - 2021
Led innovation teams that transformed vehicle data into business intelligence. Built IoT systems for 30,000+ vehicles, developed ML models predicting driver behavior, and created visualization tools making telematics accessible to non-technical users. Results included 15% fewer accidents and measurable efficiency gains across enterprise fleets.

Founder
2019 - 2019
Founded a startup focused on ID verification solutions for the Brazilian market. Built an API-as-a-product business model, offering document validation and identity verification services via a developer-friendly REST API. This entrepreneurial experience deepened my understanding of creating APIs as products rather than just technical interfaces.
2012 - 2017
Software Development
2012 - 2017
At Volvo, I evolved from embedded software intern to product specialist supporting Latin American markets. I developed ML prediction models using telematics data from 100,000+ trucks globally. This taught me to balance technical depth with empathy – turning complex datasets into insights while understanding real-world application and customer needs.

Early Carrer
2009 - 2012
My career began with C# development at ExxonMobil while I was still in college. I later earned a research scholarship at PUCPR, where I worked on manufacturing automation before receiving a scholarship to study at Wright State University. These early experiences built my foundation in both theoretical computer science and practical engineering.
