A little bit of history
2022 - NOW
Staff Software Engineer @ C6 Bank (Sep/2024 - Now)
Acting as the Tech lead and solutions architect for the collateral management and corporate banking teams, as well as being an active designer of cross-team solutions involving regulatory reports and development platforms.
If this role has taught me anything is that building platforms is a must for a scalable future, but sometimes smart purchases are also a valid option, for vendors are there for a reason and we must approach them in a transitory and safe way.
I've learned to acknowledge that I'm not supposed to know everything about every context, but to allow myself to learn and filter what's important for my next step.
Senior Backend SWE @ C6 Bank (Jun/2022 - Sep/2024)
Designing resilient and efficient systems for our distributed microservices architecture. Furthermore, leading the development of such projects.
Developing integrations with third-party APIs on a large scale, specially those related to collateral management and stock market.
Contributing with the development of other SWEs on the team on a daily basis.
Since C6 Bank is already an established company on the banking scene, the challenge here becomes much interesting: how can you develop solutions to operate on a national scale without overkill solutions?
2020 - 2022
Senior Backend SWE @ Softniel's & OJO (Oct/20 - Jun/22)
Development of REST APIs and microservices for a logistics startup company. Integration of third party software inside the microservice architecture. Mentorship of new backend, mobile, and frontend developers inside the project.
Communication with stakeholders to design scalable and meaningful features to our users.
Android SWE @ Softniel's & OJO (Mar/20 - Oct/20)
Migration of an entire mobile application developed in Javascript using the Cordova framework to a native solution using Java and Kotlin.
2019 - 2020
Frontend SWE @ Softniel's
Migration of the internal ticket system (desktop) to a web solution developed using the Angular framework. Creation of a unified authentication solution for customers of an ERP System.
2018 - 2019
Fullstack SWE @ UNIUV
Creation of internal tools and a CRM software for entry at the UNIUV university using the PHP Language and the Laravel framework, as well as VueJS and TailwindCSS for the frontend.
Understading operation demands was key here, learned a lot with this experience.
2016 - 2017
Software Engineering Intern @ Compunião
The golden pure PHP years 😎 My first job as a SWE intern at a company that developed accounting software. My main challenge here was to create APIs for customers that wanted to query specific data structures inside the monolithic database. Performance here was a must!
Also, dealing with PHP 4 was a challenge on it's own 😅
