Graduated in IT, I have been working for over eight years as a developer, primarily focusing on backend and DevOps. During this time, I have specialized in the maintenance, documentation, and development of legacy software using C# and Java. I have extensive experience integrating with payment systems and fintechs. I'm passionate about retro and low-level computing and enjoy creating hack ROMs for NES, SNES, and Gameboy. Currently, I am pursuing my second degree in computer engineering. I am a Linux enthusiast and a Doomaniac!

 I had contact with computers from an early age and always spent hours and hours in front of them. This early exposure allowed me to develop a deep understanding of various technologies and systems. Over the years, I have honed my skills in backend development, focusing on C# and Java, and have gained extensive experience in DevOps practices. I am proficient in managing queues, working with AWS, designing architectures, and implementing RESTful, SOAP, and gRPC services.

 My experience also includes using Jenkins for continuous integration and deployment, conducting comprehensive testing, and utilizing Docker and Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration. As a Linux enthusiast, I have a deep understanding of system administration, scripting, and leveraging command-line tools to streamline workflows. Additionally, I prioritize security in all aspects of development, ensuring robust and secure solutions for the financial and fintech sectors.

 Due to my ease with numbers since my first experience in a bank, I have always continued working in the financial area, where I consider myself an enthusiast in relation to cryptocurrencies and blockchain. I have extensive experience in creating, integrating, and maintaining payment and finance software.
