I am a natural organizer, optimizer and communicator, which makes me a very good problem solver. I translate requirements into safe and intuitive workflows and convert them into intuitive, scalable systems. In recent years, besides Portugal, I worked in Brazil and the UK, taking on roles such as Full Stack Engineer, Backend Engineer, Team Leader, Software Development Manager, Systems Analyst, Scrum Master (not certified) and Agile Project Manager. I have experience across Banking, Investments, Insurance, Accounting, Education, Pharmaceuticals, Construction, Maintenance, Restaurants, e-commerce and more. I speak four languages fluently and tailor my communication to tech and non-tech stakeholders. I’m open to returning to Full Stack Development or contributing wherever I can be most helpful. I’m seeking my next professional home rather than just a job or salary.
