About me

My journey in technology began in 2013 as a Front-End Developer, working at a digital agency using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to develop websites, applications, and responsive solutions.

In 2017, I deepened my knowledge in React, Redux, and Smart TV development, working on large-scale projects. At Globo, I was involved in creating the Smart TV streaming app for Globoplay, from the requirement definition phase to building and leading the development team. Later, as an Engineering Manager, I focused on people management, career development, and team engagement.

Today, at Accedo, I work as an Engineering Lead, playing a Solution Architect role in projects and being responsible for creating scalable solutions for streaming platforms. As a Manager, I lead the entire engineering team in Brazil.
