About#

I've been working as a software engineer since 2019. Although I've always worked as an individual contributor, my perfect day is one where I enable those around me to perform at their best. I love a good and healthy discussion - I have my own opinions that I can defend well, but I make sure to listen at least as much as I speak.

My journey into technology began as a kid, with a strong interest in building (and breaking) things with computers and programming. This foundation led me to pursue a Master's degree in Informatics and Computer Engineering at FEUP, where I focused on distributed systems, operating systems, and algorithms.

Professionally, I've had the opportunity to develop and optimize high-throughput, low-latency microservices at BMW (currently) and Semasio. My experience spans various technologies like Redis, DynamoDB, Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, and a myriad of programming languages.

Above all, I'm product-driven: I care less about what hat I'm wearing and more about doing whatever it takes to deliver real value. That mindset also drives my focus on AI: I was part of an exploratory AI task force at BMW, where I worked on finding practical ways to leverage novel AI solutions for product development.
