Senior Backend Engineer

I make systems talk to each other.

And occasionally teach machines to think for themselves.

I've spent the last 6+ years building the invisible infrastructure that powers real businesses—payment platforms processing thousands of daily transactions, marketplaces handling billions in volume, and mentorship platforms connecting people across 140+ countries.

My work lives in the space between "it should just work" and "why is this so hard?"—making complex systems feel simple.

01 What I Actually Do

🔗

Systems That Scale

From Django monoliths to containerized microservices on Kubernetes. I've migrated, optimized, and rebuilt systems to handle real-world traffic—not just benchmarks.

🤖

AI That Ships

Not just prototypes—production LLM integrations. Automated code reviews, intelligent document generation, and data enrichment pipelines that actually run in the wild.

Events, Not Requests

RabbitMQ, SQS/SNS, Celery. I build systems that react in real-time, processing 500K+ daily events with sub-second latency.

Beyond the Terminal

Based in Brasília, Brazil, I write here about the things I learn: distributed systems, production war stories, and the occasional deep-dive into something that kept me up at night.

This blog is my way of thinking out loud. Stick around.
