Summary
Fernando Concatto is a software developer and researcher with 12 years of experience blending industry-grade web and mobile development with academic research in applied computing. He investigates computationally hard optimization problems and applies heuristic and soft-computing techniques to real-world domains such as epidemic modeling on complex networks, multispectral satellite imagery analysis, power distribution optimization, and automated essay scoring. Currently at Softplan and holding a master’s in Applied Computing from Univali, he has balanced roles in both private companies and research institutions (FAPESC, Smart Technology, Univali), demonstrating an ability to translate theoretical methods into production software. Based in Santa Catarina, Brazil, he also teaches and mentors, reflecting a commitment to knowledge transfer beyond coding. A less obvious strength is his cross-domain agility: he frequently moves between data-driven research and pragmatic application development, making him effective at turning experimental models into usable products.
