I’m Jéssica Ferreira Paiva, an Electrical and Computer Engineering graduate with hands-on full-stack development experience in IoT and industrial/boat monitoring systems. I’ve built multi-user dashboards, role-based authentication, and backend-to-hardware communication pipelines using MQTT and Node-RED, with real-time data storage and visualization using InfluxDB and SQLite. I’m currently exploring cybersecurity and networking as a career direction, building on my foundational penetration testing training. I enjoy working at the intersection of software, connected devices, and data, and I’m motivated to apply secure-by-design thinking to the systems I develop.
