Get started
Passionate about building robust, scalable software with Java and Spring. I leverage modern technologies to solve complex problems and deliver high-quality systems from initial architecture to production and long-term maintenance. I’m driven by clean code, strong engineering principles, and continuous improvement.
I guide the team through sound technical decisions, promote a culture of clean, maintainable code, and ensure we deliver solutions built on the right technologies. I foster knowledge sharing, uphold engineering standards, and make sure every part of the software is supported by accurate and useful documentation.
Agile enthusiast with a strong focus on Scrum. As a scrum.org certified Scrum Master, I’ve guided teams toward high performance, improved collaboration, and successfully established the Scrum framework in environments adopting it for the first time.
Based in Lisbon, Portugal—and comfortable working with distributed teams around the globe.
I’m a software engineer with a Master’s Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Universidade Nova de Lisboa.
I’ve spent over 12 years working with Java Enterprise technologies and hold an Oracle Professional Java SE 7 certification (License 2367420720CPJSE7). In the last 6 years, I’ve centered my work around microservices, Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, and modern Reactive Programming. My experience spans both SQL and NoSQL databases, and I enjoy building systems that are clean, scalable, and maintainable. I’m a strong supporter of Agile principles and contribute to that mindset as a certified Scrum Master.
When I’m not coding, you’ll likely find me outdoors, training, or staying active in the gym.
