I am an entrepreneur, geek and computer engineer from Brazil with 10+ years of experience in the fields of machine learning, machine vision, big data and web applications. I love the art of crafting new applications and I am passionate about technology and how it can be used to improve people´s life.
I did research in machine learning & vision while at Profactor/Austria and returned to Brazil to become an entrepreneur. I started up my first company, Spatium, in 2004 to develop portable 3D scanning technology. We served hundreds of customers among them Embraer, Robert Bosch and Mercedes-Benz.
Last year, after leaving Spatium I decided to take on new challenges on consumer web and new media applications and started my second company GPNX where we are using web technologies to solve problems in people´s everyday life.
I am familiar with most online media tools. I do a lot of research in (new) social media trends. I am a skilled developer, algorithm and system designer. I have designed and implemented high-end machine learning&vision algorithms, developed large scale web applications using Java EE, agile frameworks like Grails and cross-browser technologies like Javascript and HTML5. I have written applications that interface with multiple social media networks like Orkut, Facebook and Twitter using both server side and client side technologies. I am very proud of being part of Mozilla learning lab.
