About
Get to know more about my background, projects, and education.
My background
My passion for technology started early, at 7, when my mother bought a computer for her work. I was hooked. I spent hours poking around every program on that machine, playing games and figuring out what each button actually did. Over time that curiosity turned into a need to understand how things worked underneath, whether that meant tweaking a game or learning to code.
During my Software Engineering degree, which I started in 2017, I worked with React, Angular, Node, PHP, and Java. These days I gravitate toward JavaScript and the web, mostly because anyone with a browser can open what you built.
Professional Experience
My professional path has taken me through some pretty different places. At UniCesumar, I worked as a Full Stack Web Developer on Studeo, a learning platform for undergraduate students. Then I moved to Claranet, where I helped build MCP, a system for tracking clients on our managed cloud services, with heavy emphasis on detailed reporting.
Between 2023 and 2024, I taught courses in Systems Analysis and Development and Software Engineering at UniCesumar, the same university where I graduated. Sharing a faculty room with professors who had taught me years earlier was strange in a good way, and I probably learned as much as I taught.
At Inter, I worked as a Frontend Developer on the Intershop team. There, I helped migrate the site from Gatsby to Next.js, pushed SEO forward, and contributed to an internal design system used across several teams. I also touched micro-frontends, Chrome extensions, dynamic content, and google ads, while keeping a close eye on operations through New Relic, Grafana, and OpenSearch.
These days I'm a Software Engineer at Saúde Bliss, a platform that uses AI to connect Small Businesses to the right health plan and automate a good chunk of the broker and seller workflow. I handle insurer integrations and build automations covering the full order flow, proposals, and dependent management. On the frontend it's React, TypeScript, and Storybook. On the backend, Node.js running on AWS.
I went back to teaching at UniCesumar too, this time for the Emerging Technologies course in the Software Engineering program. The syllabus covers generative AI, agents, and blockchain.
Personal Projects
Palpitae is a football prediction platform I built with the FIFA World Cup 2026 in mind. Groups of friends predict match scores round by round and also fill out a knockout bracket, with correct picks in the later stages worth more on the leaderboard. Under the hood, it's React with Vite on Cloudflare Pages, a Hono API on Workers, a D1 (SQLite) database, and Google OAuth for login.
Before Palpitae, there was Bolão Brasileirão, an MVP prediction app for the Brazilian Série A. I tested the core loop there, round-by-round score predictions, automatic scoring, a general ranking, without requiring login. You just picked a unique name each round. Same Cloudflare infrastructure, with live data synced from Football-Data.org.
K-pop Quiz is a set of daily games I built about K-pop groups and artists, in Portuguese and English: a ten-question quiz, a grid, connections, name guess and word search. Every answer comes from Wikipedia and Wikidata. A Python collector queries both APIs, records the revisions it read, and only accepts a fact that points to a Wikidata reference or a Wikipedia revision excerpt. The site is built with Astro and Preact.
I also built the website for Silva Satin Advocacia, a law firm in Maringá, Brazil. It's static and to the point, written in plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, covering the firm's practice areas and contact details.
