Senior Blockchain Architect & Developer | + Smart Contracts Delivered | $50 M+ Tokenized | De Fi & Multichain Solutions

I am a Senior Blockchain Architect & Developer with 18+ years of software engineering and 7+ years dedicated to Web3, DeFi, and tokenization. I have designed and deployed 50+ Solidity smart contracts and 9+ DeFi dApps, supporting swaps, bridging, and multichain auctions. My work consistently combines technical depth with business impact, from privacy-first CBDC solutions to enterprise-grade tokenization pipelines.

Technically, I specialize in secure smart contract development (ERC20, ERC721, ERC1155, advanced standards), with 95%+ automated test coverage (Hardhat + TypeChain). I have engineered backends handling 2,700+ TPS, processing 100+ large XML files/day (~600MB each, 800K+ receivables), and deployed scalable cloud integrations using AWS (ECS Fargate, Lambda, SQS, RDS, DynamoDB, S3).

On the business side, I led tokenization initiatives that moved over R$ 300M (US$ 50M+) in receivables in just 4 months (+76% growth) and supported Parfin’s US$ 10M Series A fundraising. I have delivered projects for global financial institutions (J.P. Morgan, Central Bank of Brazil, leading Brazilian banks, and acquirers) and consumer brands (Campari, Stock Car), bridging traditional industries with decentralized technologies.

I thrive in environments that value transparency, measurable impact, and technical excellence, always aiming to deliver solutions that scale securely while driving real business results.
