I build and operate systems where failure is expensive: carrier-grade telephony, a consumer platform that scaled past 4 million users, and now healthcare infrastructure handling prescriptions, pharmacy operations and sensitive patient data across Brazil.

Today I'm CTO & Co-Founder at eles (@eles-tech), a Brazilian digital health company building platforms for men's and women's health. I own the entire technical surface: architecture, cloud, backend, frontend, mobile, ML inference, CI/CD, and the infrastructure-as-code that holds it all together. CTO is the title; the terminal is where I actually live.

The production stack at eles, designed, built and operated hands-on:

• 🐍 Python 3.14 · FastAPI · SQLModel on Google Cloud Run (southamerica-east1), strict typing, mypy strict, 100% IaC
• ⚡ React + Vite served from the Cloudflare edge
• 🏗️ Pulumi for every last resource. If it exists in the cloud, it exists in code.
• 🧠 Self-hosted medical LLMs with vLLM, TensorRT-LLM and ONNX on NVIDIA L4 (inference) and B200 (training)
• 🔒 LGPD data sovereignty as an architectural constraint, not a compliance checkbox: patient data never leaves Brazil
• 🧾 Mission-critical fiscal pipelines (NF-e, NFS-e, SEFAZ) where one rejected document can stop a pharmacy from selling

I rebuilt the way software gets shipped here, and I have the receipts:

• 🚁 Fleets of coding agents running in parallel: Claude Code, Jules and Codex
• 📐 AI Spec Driven Development: I write the architecture and the specs, agents write the code, nothing merges without my review
• 🚀 Three internal production systems shipped in under two months with this setup
• 🎯 The bottleneck moved from typing speed to decision quality, which is exactly where a CTO's cycles belong

Things I have kept alive in production over two decades:

• ☎️ Telephony switches routing live calls (SS7, SIP trunks, IVRs)
• 📈 A consumer platform scaling past 4 million users
• 🏥 Healthcare systems where prescriptions, patient data and pharmacy operations depend on uptime
• 🧾 Brazilian fiscal infrastructure with zero room for "eventually consistent"
• 🖥️ 20+ years of Linux, UNIX and BSD boxes, from bare metal to serverless and back to bare metal again

• 🏠 Homelab: Dell PowerEdge T440, an ARM NAS build on OpenZFS, and 10GbE everywhere it fits
• 🎛️ Microcontrollers, FPGA, robotics and IoT. If it has pins, I will flash it.
• 🧪 LLM inference optimization on everything from consumer GPUs to datacenter silicon
