ABOUT ME

I'm a Brazilian entrepreneur and software developer specialized in growing sustainable products

I help teams and companies build better products.

In the last 5 years I've lead development teams to build better products for their clients. I created a mindset to build simple, modular applications. I believe tools that make people more agile have only one purpose and non-obtrusive interfaces.

I've never worked without using TDD. Because of that I've developed a strict relationship to this methodology. I know how it can improve or not the product and the project. I also participate and helped organize Coding Dojos where TDD is the base of this dynamic. It helps new and old people to better understand more how we build complex code faster.

Building A Real-Time Twitter Mood Visualization Using Emojis

Read about how we figured out people's emotions on Twitter during the Oscars, with emojis, so Coca-Cola could create custom tweets — in only four days.

Most of the companies I worked for tried to implement a "hierarchy-free" environment. To do that they tried to just cut some management out. But in the end that never felled really like it was working.

This is your business not your hobby

Creating a business is usually like this, we have problems and we need to solve them, leaving no time to think about yourself. After all, you are making a product for your clients, not for yourself. Otherwise it would be a hobby, not a business.

've helped the CTO define the tech strategy and build the product using Django. He was migrating from Node to Python and Django to be agiler. My main contribution was creating a software that was easy to maintain and fast to evolve. After 3 months of pair programming, the software was good enough so they could go on by themselves.

I’ve leaded a developer team to build products for major clients like Coca-Cola and Nestlé. We developed a mindset to build simple, modular and intercommunicable applications. The tools have one purpose and one purpose alone, with non-obtrusive interfaces that making people agile. We are building upon three main foundations: Small Acts Manifesto, The Zen of Python and Wabi Sabi philosophy.
