Building scalable machine learning platforms, forecasting solutions, and production AI systems.
I'm a Machine Learning Engineer with 5+ years of experience building and deploying scalable AI solutions in production environments.
My expertise spans Machine Learning, MLOps, Data Engineering, and Cloud Infrastructure, with a strong focus on transforming research and business requirements into reliable, production-ready systems.
I hold a M.Sc. in Computer Science from UNICAMP, where my research focused on Explainable AI, Representation Learning, and Human Activity Recognition.
Today, I specialize in designing end-to-end ML platforms, distributed training pipelines, forecasting systems, and modern AI applications.
