About

Proven ability to take ownership of complex legacy and greenfield codebases—refactoring monoliths, architecting reusable systems, and mentoring engineers. Strong expertise in Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, and Clean Architecture, complemented by hands-on work across backend, frontend, and data layers.

Comfortable working in fast-paced, English-speaking, cross-functional teams (4 to 50+ engineers) across Brazil, Portugal, Indonesia, and the US. Worked on large-scale international projects for organizations such as PayPal, Snapchat, and XP Investments, delivering high-quality features with strong test coverage and observability.

Android Engineer (allocated to XP PayPal) · ThalozJul 2024 – Jun 2026 · 2 yrs

Designed and built a Jetpack Compose dynamic, GraphQL-driven form system that renders fields, validation rules, input masks, and field interdependencies at runtime from a single UI state object, eliminating one-off forms across the module. Created the “payment-form at-change” flow from scratch, including a complete address flow (form, search, edit) as part of a loan and internationalization initiative. Worked on migrating the module from legacy architecture to MVI + Compose during a company-wide migration from multiple repositories into a single monorepo, contributing shared utilities and optimizations. Implemented internationalization abstraction layers enabling per-country injection across the app. Worked exclusively with GraphQL/Apollo (no REST), maintaining 85%+ test coverage and using Datadog for observability and Jenkins for CI/CD in an Agile/Scrum environment.
