"Green brings hope, the desire for better days.
Garnet is the blood we shed fighting for the future.
White means the peace, because we won without losing ourselves."

EDUCATION

• Douglas College · 2018 - 2020
  Associate Degree in Science

  As a new journey started in my life, moving to Canada, in Douglas College I regained my joy in learning new things such as Creative Writing, Psychology, and how to use those in Software Development. Besides studying I also helped students to understand programming as Teaching Assistant.
  
  

• UFRJ · 2012 - 2017
  Mathematics

  Mathematics was always part of my interest, but during my years at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, I was able to understand it more deeply and learn how to apply my knowledge to build interactive solutions, optimize algorithms, filtering noise from a collection, among others.
  
  

• CEFET/RJ · 2006 - 2009
  IT Diploma – Technician

  I started my way on the 'virtual world' learning different subjects as Operating System, Network, Database and Coding, which I've been perfecting since then, being capable, now, of writing robust code in languages such as C++, C#, Java, Python and JavaScript.

EXPERIENCE

• Modular Mining · 2021 - Present
  Software Engineer
  Contributing to performance optimization, security initiatives, CI/CD migrations and automation tooling used for production patching and deployment workflows across large-scale environments. I also worked on backend systems related to haul cycle automation and Autonomous Haulage Systems (AHS) for mining operations.

• Kinetic Reality · 2016 - 2021
  Software Engineer

  Worked on desktop, mobile and VR applications focused on motion capture and biomechanics analysis. I developed walking simulation and inverse kinematics systems, interactive visualization tools and APIs that allowed external developers to build their own motion capture experiences. My work also helped expand the company’s technology into VR games, sports training and animation workflows.

• Douglas College · 2019 - 2020
  Teaching Assistant

  Helped students learn programming fundamentals, object-oriented programming and data structures through practical exercises using C++, Python and Raspberry Pi projects.

• Deep Knight Games · 2012 - 2014
  Lead Game Developer

  Led development of games and internal Unity tools while working closely with designers and artists to improve level design workflows and gameplay iteration. I was responsible for implementing gameplay systems, editor tools and interactive features across multiple projects.

• INEA · 2011 - 2012
  Game Producer & Lead Developer

  Led a small team in the development of educational games presented during the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20). Using an iterative development process, we created interactive experiences focused on environmental awareness for children attending the event.
