Software engineer with 3+ years of professional experience building scalable backend services, REST APIs, and microservices across fintech, creative tech, and consulting industries.

I've worked with distributed teams across Brazil and the United States, delivering production systems in .NET, Node.js, and Go. I care about clean architecture, performance optimization, and writing code that scales.

On the side, I'm building Titan — a high-fidelity physics simulation engine for aerospace applications, combining a C++ core with a .NET integration layer and a React-based mission control frontend.
