Hello World

Director of Software Engineering at BCG X, based in São Paulo. I lead engineering teams and stay hands-on with product development, system architecture and delivery.

Over 25 years, my work has spanned interactive experiences, generative art, commerce and enterprise platforms. Today, I build AI applications and developer tools, from local transcription software to generative image pipelines and systems that help teams review code and delivery evidence.

Previously, I founded FLUUUID, co-founded blkbx as CTO, and worked with creative studios including The Mill, Google Creative Lab and UNIT9. That background still shapes how I build: the experience people use and the systems behind it belong in the same conversation.

Before the agents, there were pixels.

Two decades of creative technology before AI ate the world — interactive films, generative art, WebGL toys, broken Kinects, the kind of browser stunts that don't survive a Chrome update.
