};Graduated in Computer Engineering from Insper (São Paulo), I believe the best way to validate an idea is to build it — then iterate until it's solid. If something sounds good, I prototype it in hours, not weeks.
My stack goes from Python and Node.js on the backend to Docker infrastructure and cloud deploys. I have experience with smart automations, algorithmic trading, and embedded systems.
In 2015 I ranked 93rd out of 1,604 contestants at the Brazilian Olympiad in Informatics (OBI), top 6% nationally. Today, I'm focused on building tools that generate real value — bots, automations, and projects that solve concrete problems.
Leading the development of a real-time risk management platform for treasury traders. High-performance, scalable architecture on AWS with Python, Node.js, and React.
Continued building the same platform after Sum Solutions was acquired by Itaú Unibanco.
Built the real-time risk management system from the ground up as a founding member. Full stack development — the same system that now serves Itaú's treasury.
Shared expense tracking system via WhatsApp. Send a natural message ("spent 50 at the store") and the bot classifies, logs to a spreadsheet, and generates automatic monthly summaries.
Automated memecoin trading bot on Solana with multiple strategies, whale tracking via Helius API, and a real-time dashboard. Includes pump.fun integration, trailing stops, and continuous scoring system.
Self-hosted infrastructure with Jellyfin for personal media streaming. Full setup with reverse proxy, SSL, automated downloads, and library organization via custom scripts.
Full wedding website with RSVP system (phone validation + guest lookup), gift registry with PIX QR codes, countdown, and responsive design. Self-hosted on Oracle Cloud free tier — $0/month instead of $50+/year on wedding platforms.
<?php → AST → 🎯
Full PHP compiler built from scratch in Python. Includes lexer, parser, AST generation, and x86 assembly output. Academic project for Computational Logic at Insper.
