Tech Lead | Full Stack Developer | Audio Engineer | Music Producer
Software developer and tech lead with nearly 15 years experience in full stack, end-to-end development. I speak JavaScript and Portuguese natively, and Java, Clojure, PHP, SQL, and English are tied for my second language. Can learn/refresh all others (yes even COBOL and Assembly). I have also dabbled in AI/Machine Learning and would love to do it again. I have worked with, designed, and built several front end applications, backends, and large scale, distributed, data processing systems with high throughput, scalability, and resiliency. Worked with major players in Aerospace, Maritime, Defense and Logistics industries, delivering dependable solutions to support their high-value, high-stakes, critical operations in real-time. Well-versed in Geographical Information Systems (GIS). I've also been a music producer, audio engineer, and musician for almost 20 years, having performed live in 14 countries, released multiple albums and studio records with several bands and solo projects, and recorded, produced, or co-produced dozens of other releases available online and in music stores worldwide.
