About

With a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Universidade Salvador, I have built a robust career in software development and architecture. My journey began at Convergence Works, where I progressed from an intern to a Technical Leader, honing my skills in PHP and TYPO3 CMS. I then advanced to a Full Stack Developer role at Quatá Investimentos, where I developed and maintained corporate systems using Silex and AngularJS. Briefly, I served as a Senior Software Developer at Agente Imóvel, enhancing system integrations and features. Currently, I am a PHP Software Architect at Upland Software, where I lead backend development, system maintenance, and migration to modern technologies. My expertise includes scalable SQL query building, custom field systems, and API development with Vue.js. My career reflects a commitment to performance, data security, and user experience.
