About me
I am a FullStack, Data, and AI Engineer, with over 7 years of professional experience. Currently a Tech Lead at Banco Itaú, where I design and optimize real-time and batch data pipelines using AWS (Glue, EMR, Athena, Redshift, Kinesis, Airflow, Iceberg) and Apache Spark/PySpark, while leading and mentoring my team from requirement gathering to delivery.
I am deeply passionate about AI engineering — developing solutions with LLMs, fine-tuning models using Ollama, ComfyUI, and HuggingFace on local servers, and implementing RAG pipelines. I hold certifications in Prompt Engineering, AI Practitioner, and Responsible AI.
With a postgraduate degree in Cloud Computing, I bridge the gap between software and data engineering to build high-performance architectures. I apply TDD, SOLID, DDD, and event-driven design across Node.js, Python, Go, and TypeScript stacks.
Outside of work, I enjoy playing video games, guitar, working out, walking and playing with my family and pets, and watching movies, series, anime, and superhero comics.
