    Senior Software Engineer

    BairesDev / San Francisco, California, United States

    Dedicated to the wemlo (RE/MAX) project since joining the company, serving as a key contributor across platform reliability, scalability, and integrations. Led performance optimization initiatives that reduced critical endpoint response times from seconds to milliseconds through load testing and system improvements. Re-architected the file management framework to support data streaming, reducing memory consumption and infrastructure costs. Acted as technical lead for multiple complex third-party integrations, while driving SRE practices, code reviews, and deployment excellence to ensure platform stability and growth.

    Senior Software Engineer

    labsit / São Paulo, Brazil

    I worked as a frontend engineer focused on web application development, leading a squad of 4-6 engineers responsible for architectural decisions, task delegation, and code reviews across the team's deliverables. I built an internal Angular component library, based on the company's design system, that grew to over 50 reusable components and was adopted across 6 projects. Since most of the team consisted of backend developers working on frontend tasks, the library cut their development time by at least 50%, letting them ship UI work without deep Angular expertise. I owned architectural decisions for frontend projects, setting technical direction and code standards that the squad followed, and led code reviews to maintain consistency and quality across deliverables. Leading the squad's day-to-day execution, I managed task delegation and sprint planning, balancing team capacity against delivery deadlines while mentoring engineers on frontend best practices.

    Software Engineer

    Inatel Competence Center / Santa Rita do Sapucaí, MG

    I spent over four years at Inatel Competence Center, progressing from intern to Software Engineer while working on web applications for Telecom product management and an IoT platform built from the ground up. As an intern, I designed and implemented an IoT platform from scratch, supporting multiple communication protocols (HTTP, CoAP, and MQTT) and handling continuous data from over 200 devices, including campus lighting, sensors, and the main electrical panel, each sending requests at 1 request per second. I integrated the platform across the full INATEL campus and built a comprehensive application for real-time visualization of device data. In an earlier intern role, I supported project validation by researching new frameworks and technologies, producing proof-of-concepts and estimations that improved the accuracy and speed of project scoping for senior engineers. Moving into the Software Engineer role, I worked on a Telecom Plans Design System application for Ericsson, focusing on frontend development to support telecom product management, working closely with cross-functional teams to improve user experience and platform functionality

    wemlo LBS

    BairesDev

    Full-stack mortgage origination and processing platform used by brokers, processors, and internal teams to run the loan lifecycle, from borrower intake through compliance, documents, and secondary-market integrations.

    The Vue 3 single-page app covers the loan pipeline, disclosures, loan estimates, documents, and e-sign flows. A Node.js and Express API on MongoDB handles business rules, authentication (JWT, SAML, and Azure AD), and background jobs. The system also generates PDFs and integrates credit, title orders, MISMO, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, and runs on AWS (EKS, S3).

    Work spans a monorepo of services (web, API, jobs, and document generation), with a focus on regulated flows (RESPA, NMLS, disclosures) where data consistency and auditability matter as much as the interface.
