Services
Four ways to work with me. The first three are scoped engagements, the last one is full time.
We pick a process with real volume and ship it to production with the evaluation criteria written down first.
Evaluation and observability ship with the agent, so you find out it broke before your customer tells you.
Architecture, build or buy, a review of what is already running. Technical decisions without hiring a team first.
From discovery to code in production, inside your team. It is what I do full time at Jam.
Results
Each company caught me at a different stage. This is what stayed behind.

About me
I work as a product engineer for American companies. What is already routine inside them takes a while to arrive here, and that gap is what I shorten for Brazilian companies.

2014
I joined ContaAzul as an intern and was hired full time before the internship ended. Never stopped since.

ContaAzul, Creditas, Origin and Voiceflow. I went through five funding rounds from inside the engineering team, from Series A to Series C.
I spent the last four years building an agent platform at Voiceflow, before it became a market topic. Today I build product at Jam.
I also run Citou, where I test first what I later recommend.
