7+ years building high-volume financial systems, distributed architectures and event-driven platforms. Nearly 5 years at XP Investimentos — one of Brazil's largest fintechs — helping build XP Bank from scratch.
From a printer repair shop in São Paulo to building core banking infrastructure processing R$30B/month — promoted at every single role.
Independent software studio focused on designing and developing scalable, cloud-native SaaS products. Full ownership of the software lifecycle: architecture decisions, implementation, testing and production monitoring.
One of Brazil's largest investment and financial services companies — comparable in scale to CommBank or Macquarie in Australia. Joined during the foundational phase of building XP Bank — the full retail banking product did not yet exist. Nearly 5 years. Promoted twice. Digital Account division covering core banking transfer infrastructure.
Project-based freelance engagements through Hypesoft consultancy, operating as a registered Sole Trader (equivalent to ABN holder in Australia). Ran in parallel with the XP Investimentos role.
Contributed to the first ERP system for GWM in Brazil, improving workflows across inventory, logistics and financial operations. Implemented modular backend services using .NET and Clean Architecture. Project cancelled mid-development by the client; payment dispute followed.
Developed a cashback platform integrated with Banco Carrefour's mobile ecosystem, powered by the VerTem engine. Built secure, high-throughput APIs for processing cashback events, managing transaction flows and enhancing user engagement. Strong focus on scalability and compliance.
Designed and implemented a high-volume Webhook Management System. Stack: ASP.NET Core, PostgreSQL, Redis, Azure Service Bus, Angular. Inbound requests immediately enqueued to Service Bus — decoupling ingestion from processing. Retry policies, dead-letter queues and observability pipelines. Load tested at 1,000 req/s with no degradation. Shipped to production.
Early-stage startup. Backend architecture contribution during evenings and weekends, in parallel with the Linx role.
One of Brazil's leading retail technology companies. Shopping Vertical R&D team. Joined during the COVID-19 lockdown week, initially as a PJ contractor.
Small software house (~5 developers) building ERP and TMS products for logistics and accounts management. Joined as a mandatory intern tied to the Impacta degree.
First formal employment (carteira assinada). Small electronics and printer repair company serving corporate clients including law firms, notary offices and a USP faculty office.
High-impact systems built across fintech, retail, SaaS and banking — from greenfield products to core infrastructure serving millions.
SaaS invoicing platform for Australian small businesses. Serverless-first on AWS Lambda, Flutter mobile app, modular monolith DDD backend with banking-grade OAuth security and S3 signed URLs.
Core Brazilian electronic transfer infrastructure for XP Bank. Co-designed and built from scratch in under 5 months. Processed R$40B in the first year and R$30B/month at departure.
Improved PIX system reliability by implementing Redis cache as primary source of truth with automatic fallback to the Bacen API — eliminating latency and downtime spikes for clients.
Led the Overdraft product from concept to production — one of the last core features needed to complete XP's digital banking platform. Full product ownership from PBI refinement to launch.
Took over and completed a partially built system largely solo. Full CIP/XML lifecycle integration: requests, status callbacks and push notifications. Kafka notification pipeline with 3 independent consumer groups.
Contributed to the International Account product — built the currency quote feature in the BFF with Redis cache (5-min TTL) and fallback to an external API, improving resilience under load.
Designed a dual-approval security layer before any transfer dispatch, integrated with the anti-fraud team. Designed end-to-end architecture, refined all PBIs, and coordinated a 4-person external Avanade team.
Event-driven notification infrastructure consuming TED lifecycle events from Kafka with three independent consumer groups: receipts generation, push notifications and mailing. Considered one of the best-architected Kafka implementations in the team.
Cashback platform integrated with Banco Carrefour's mobile ecosystem, powered by the VerTem engine. Secure, high-throughput APIs for cashback event processing, transaction flow management and user engagement.
High-volume async event processing system. Inbound requests immediately enqueued to Azure Service Bus — decoupling ingestion from processing. Retry policies, dead-letter queues and observability. Load tested at 1,000 req/s with no degradation.
Full e-commerce and marketplace platform for franchise retailers built from greenfield. Product catalogue, inventory, checkout and payments. Proposed and led the Kubernetes migration from Windows IIS. Live in production today serving Aramis and others.
Two core products: Associatec (ERP management software for associations and business operations) and SincLog (TMS for logistics and fleet control). Feature delivery, performance improvements and bug fixes across multiple modules.
Designed and built the initial backend from scratch using cloud-native principles, CQRS and DDD. Clean separation between reads and writes. Product launched and reached R$300K/month in revenue after delivery.
Seven years of production-grade engineering spanning backend, cloud, mobile and distributed systems.
From technical high school in São Paulo to postgraduate research in Melbourne — built on merit and self-direction at every step.
The research focuses on identifying the most impactful locations for new bus, train and tram stations across Victoria, Australia. The project uses publicly available data from the Victorian Government on projected population growth, urban density and land use patterns — combined with geospatial analysis and machine learning — to recommend optimal transport infrastructure placements.
Comparative qualitative analysis of microservices and monolithic architectures in the context of event-driven systems on AWS. The technical depth and research rigour of this work directly contributed to securing Master by Research admission in Australia years later.
Based in Melbourne with full working rights — available for senior engineering roles, contract work, or technical leadership opportunities.
