  Senior Software Engineer

  Operating in the critical sphere of Information Security, E-trust necessitates the utmost safeguarding of data across all its platforms.

  As a Senior Developer at E-trust, I was entrusted with a multi-faceted role that included not only coding but also shaping the development processes in collaboration with upper management. My primary mission was to innovate new features while modernizing both frontend and backend architectures of our Horacius system—all while maintaining rigorous security protocols.

  In pursuit of code excellence and efficient workflows, I established clean coding practices based on Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles. I was also instrumental in introducing continuous integration processes, which included automated migrations and code validation through specialized robotic checks.

  Among my proudest achievements was the complete revamping of the Horacius system's frontend. The challenge was not just to modernize it but also to ensure backward compatibility with legacy systems. The successful implementation resonated well with our client base, which includes some of Brazil's largest banks and corporations.

  Being at the forefront of creating the company's code culture, I was exposed to substantial responsibilities and unparalleled learning experiences, particularly in the realms of security and DevOps.
