Who I am

About

I design, build, and operate complete systems: from the database to the interface the end user touches, and from the first line of code to the server running in production.

What I enjoy most is taking a real, messy problem and turning it into something that works, scales, and can be operated and maintained over time. I am comfortable across the full stack (backend, web, and mobile), leaning on clean architecture and security by default.

The way I work is end-to-end and, most of the time, solo: I own the backend, the interfaces, the infrastructure, and the deployment, and I build them expecting they will be attacked.

Background

My strongest proof is ACP, a ticketing and parcel platform I built end-to-end, on my own, for an intercity passenger transport company, and which is live in production on Oracle Cloud today. It replaced fully manual operations with a Go backend (two APIs: public, and internal with role-based access control), six client surfaces (a React admin panel, a Next.js public site, and four offline-first Flutter apps), and infrastructure as code on OCI.

I reinforced those foundations by graduating from the Oracle Next Education (ONE) program, Back-End track and Tech Advanced tier with OCI and MySQL, and by earning the OCI Foundations Associate certification. In parallel I study at CETI, where I graduated as a Software Development Technologist with a 94.50 average and continue with the engineering degree.

Current focus

I am a firm believer in continuous learning. Right now I am moving forward on two fronts that extend what I already do. What I already study I present as such; what I explore, as interest and learning, not as something mastered.

Learning

Cybersecurity and AppSec

I am adding an attacker’s perspective to audit and harden what I build. After completing the Google Cloud Cybersecurity certificate, I am working through Cisco’s Junior Cybersecurity Analyst career path and Ethical Hacker course, alongside the PortSwigger Web Security Academy, with hands-on practice on TryHackMe and Hack The Box. The focus is web and API security (OWASP, injection, SSRF, authentication flaws) applied to my own production systems.

Exploring

Hardware and maker

My CETI education is not only software: it includes foundational electronics, embedded systems, IoT, and hardware security. One example is Purificador, a school project for an IoT air purifier (mobile app, firmware on an ESP32 microcontroller, a gas sensor, and PWM fan control). From there I explore PCB design, 3D modeling and printing and CAD, home automation, digital fabrication, robotics, and advanced IoT connectivity (LoRa, Matter), with the goal of taking a prototype all the way to a manufacturable product. The framing is simple: from the PCB to the cloud.

Let’s talk

I am open to new opportunities as a developer. If you are looking for someone who can own a problem end-to-end and leave it running in production, get in touch.
