01About

I have been building software for more than 10 years, 7 of them in e-commerce, at companies like Itaú Unibanco, Loja Integrada, and Ambev. I specialize in Micro Frontend architecture (Module Federation, Next.js, Angular), BFFs, and event-driven integrations with Kafka and AWS SNS/SQS.

I started my career in QA, which gave me an end-to-end view of quality that I still bring to every project. Today I act as a technical reference on my teams: I make architecture decisions, and I have trained interns and developers, some of whom now hold leadership roles.
