São Paulo, Brazil
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTalita Rodrigues is an applied cryptographer and security engineer based in São Paulo with 8+ years of experience building privacy-preserving systems and production cryptographic architectures. She has led cryptography initiatives at fintech and infrastructure companies, designing modular crypto libraries, key-rotation schemes, and novel data-loss prevention solutions that prioritize data origin and usability. At Blind Insight she engineered an encrypted database enabling selective queries over ciphertext, and her research-driven approach to searchable encryption combines theoretical rigor with pragmatic Python and Go implementations. Talita blends academic research — including a master’s in cryptography from USP and ongoing searchable-encryption work — with hands-on production delivery, having improved Noise-based protocols and authentication at Ockam and Nubank. She is comfortable spanning research, protocol design, and operational engineering, and is known for turning advanced cryptographic literature into deployable, auditable systems. An early background in building lightweight transport-layer crypto for sensor networks hints at her long-standing focus on practical, efficient security for constrained environments.
