Full Stack Developer | Cloud Architect
Building scalable solutions from Brazil to the world
I'm a Full Stack Developer with 5+ years of experience designing and building production-grade applications. Currently leading the development of Verlic, a content creator platform with modern architecture and cloud-native infrastructure.
I specialize in building scalable systems, from frontend interfaces to complex backend services and cloud infrastructure. Passionate about clean code, performance optimization, and delivering real business value through technology.
Location: Brazil
Languages: Portuguese (Native), English (Fluent)
Production-grade platform for content creators handling real-time video streaming, instant payments via PIX, and DRM-protected content delivery at scale.
Performance Metrics:
- Throughput: 16,666 RPS (6M requests in 6 minutes) with zero application degradation
- Concurrent Video Streams: Multiple simultaneous video deliveries without performance overhead
- Cache Hit Ratio: Cache-Aside pattern achieving 85%+ reduction in database queries
- Queue Processing: AWS SQS/EventBridge handling async operations with sub-second latency
Technical Implementation:
- Streaming Architecture: Multi-stream video delivery via Cloudflare Stream with signed URLs and origin isolation
- Caching Strategy: Cache-Aside pattern with Redis for user sessions, video metadata, and authorization tokens
- Queue Systems: AWS SQS for payment processing, EventBridge for event-driven workflows, DLQ handling for failed operations
- DRM & Security: Dynamic watermarking, token-based access control, encrypted video segments
- Database Optimization: Prisma ORM with connection pooling, read replicas for analytics queries, indexed queries for sub-50ms response times
Stack:
- Frontend: Next.js 16 App Router, React Server Components, Tailwind CSS
- Backend: Node.js, Prisma ORM, PostgreSQL (RDS), Redis
- Cloud Infrastructure: AWS (EC2, RDS, S3, SQS, EventBridge), Cloudflare (Stream, R2, Workers)
- DevOps: Docker, Kubernetes-ready, GitHub Actions CI/CD, Nginx reverse proxy

"Clean code is not written by following a set of rules. You don't become a software craftsman by learning a list of heuristics. Professionalism and craftsmanship come from values that drive disciplines."
