Summary
David Santos is a Senior Software Engineer from Bahia, Brazil, with a decade-long foundation in technology and five years of focused professional experience building resilient, high-performance backend systems. He specializes in distributed processing, asynchronous architectures and cost-efficient cloud migrations—having cut API response times by up to 99.7%, reduced storage costs by ~90% via S3 presigned uploads, and shrunk ERP latencies from ~16s to ~200ms. Comfortable across the full stack, he has delivered secure auth flows, RBAC, Kafka-based decoupling, Kubernetes deployments and CI/CD pipelines for public-sector and enterprise clients. David is pragmatic about observability and reliability, implementing Prometheus/Grafana/Loki stacks, automated backups and retry/circuit-breaker patterns that materially improved incident detection and system resilience. He pairs academic training from Universidade Federal da Bahia with hands-on craftsmanship demonstrated in freelance and government projects, and—true to his GitHub bio—retains a playful “hero” mentality in tackling complex production problems.
