I build web, mobile and cloud products with React, Next.js, Node, TypeScript and AWS.

About

Products people rely on every day

I'm a senior software engineer at Witek, building software for several clients across six stacks. Most of my time goes to ONR, the national operator that runs Brazil's electronic property registration system for registry offices across the country, and to ON-RPCN, which is digitizing birth, death and marriage records nationwide.

Before that I helped a bank take two apps from an empty repository to production, led its frontend team, and rebuilt a large sales app for Unilever in React Native.
