WORK HISTORY
Senior Software Engineer @iFood
At iFood, Brazil’s leading food delivery platform, I design, develop, and operate highly scalable distributed systems supporting a massive user base.I started on the Account & Identity team, working on authentication, authorization, and user management platforms. In this role, I built secure and scalable identity services using Java, focusing on reliability, security, and performance at scale.Currently, I work on the Server-Driven UI team, developing and maintaining distributed backend services in Golang that enable dynamic UI rendering across clients. Our systems process hundreds of thousands of requests per minute, requiring architectures optimized for high throughput, low latency, and resilience.Across both teams, I work extensively with cloud-native technologies, microservices, and event-driven architectures, contributing to systems designed for scalability, fault tolerance, and operational excellence.This experience has strengthened my expertise in distributed systems, system design, and best engineering practices, while operating in a fast-paced, high-impact production environment.
