Proficient in C/C++ and Linux kernel/driver development, he has a practical record of improving performance and robustness, including notable contributions to the varnish-cache codebase around refactoring, VCL features and runtime checks. With formal training in computer science and cyberdefense, he combines low-level systems expertise with incident-commander experience to bridge engineering and security operations. Based in Paraná, Brazil, he is the kind of engineer who surfaces subtle architectural bugs and hard-to-reproduce vulnerabilities before they reach production.
