Trajectory

From electronics to production agent systems.

I am an AI & Data Engineer based in Brasília, Brazil. I build agents and the execution, evaluation, data, and cloud systems behind them.

The path started in electronics and IT, then applied machine learning and data science. I later set technical direction across data platform teams, supported shared lakehouse and orchestration capabilities, and worked on a Spark-to-Kubernetes migration that improved infrastructure efficiency.

That platform work now sits under agent systems: production harnesses, durable delivery runtimes, and multi-agent workflows with human gates and inspectable evidence. I treat an agent as a governed software system, not a prompt with a model behind it.

Experience

Selected projects and what each delivered.

Professional work described by the problem space and the result. Each case study separates my contribution from shared team delivery.

All work

Multi-agent orchestration

Building a verified multi-agent delivery platform

ContributionI designed and built the platform end to end, including the agent contracts, workflow state machine, verification gates, worktree isolation, persistence, API, and operational interface.
