Systems Architect
CNN
https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnn
At CNN I worked for the team that supports all the software infrastructure used to produce the news you see around the world. My main contributions were:

1. Updating systems to make them more reliable and ready for the Cloud
2. Simple solutions to make our old work disappear so we can focus on the new stuff

I joined the team during a transition period in many aspects, socially (pandemic and remote work), corporate (integration of CNN's parent company Turner into WarnerMedia) and technologically (migration of our systems to the cloud and launch of HBO Max).

As I started most of the software that we used was old and I wanted to get our systems ready for containerisation to streamline the deployment process of our NewsApps. For that I had to go really deep into the Matrix to update our base resources making them CentOS 7 compatible. As a result our developers were able to use the technologies that they wanted, like Docker and newer versions of programming languages that were previously incompatible.

We also had a very interesting CLI tool to operate our on premises VMWare Datacenters and Infoblox Networking around the globe. The tool was written in Python 2 and although very useful, it had many UI issues where our engineers would get stuck. My ultimate solution was to update the codebase to run Python 3, create many custom commands for some of their more specific needs, organise the logic to make it more modular/extendable/DRY and created a logging system that allowed them to debug their own issues with very detailed error messages and hints for common solutions. By the time I was done, it had become a non issue for our team.

I was also responsible for taking care of our Jenkins instances, where our deployments were automated. A common issue was that our agents would run out of space and all deploy jobs would stop working until someone cleaned it up. My solution was a Job that cleaned all agents daily. Although simple it freed up a lot of time for our team weekly.

Fighting Climate Change with Automation!

At CoveTool my personal mission was to keep the company running seamlessly.

I updated the entire software (Python 2 to 3 and Django 1 to 2) and refactored everything that I touched. Every time I dealt with a problem, I attempted to find a lasting solution. My philosophy is to improve everything that I come across.

I also made 2 significant -out of the box- contributions:
I. A Cloning feature that enabled our users, our team and our engineers to automate an extremely time consuming and error prone task into the click of a button.
II. An App that offered a Cloud solution to do heavy processing of our 3D simulation tool in our own servers, making the calculations run faster in dedicated machines while not burdening our users computers.

Allugare - Student Housing Startup
Allugare's mission is to make remote renting a pleasant experience for students moving to a new town, sometimes with short notice due to the nature of college applications.

Being the Startup's only engineer required me to wear multiple hats in the technical area.

As a software engineer I designed, built and maintained the company's web application using Python/Django, Cloud Computing with Amazon Web Services and Heroku; database using PostgreSQL; Facebook and Google Ads; Inbound Marketing with Mailchimp and Blog with Wordpress.

Pimp My Carroça
https://www.linkedin.com/company/pimp-my-carroca
This NGO works with recyclable waste pickers, calling attention to the terrible situation that these people usually live in and also highlighting the importance of their work for the sanitation of cities and recycling as a whole. In many countries these informal workers are responsible for over 90% of all the recycling activities. Nevertheless, they're often invisible to society and the government.

As a volunteer, I got interested in one of their technology projects. I worked with a cross-functional team on the development of the recycling App Cataki. 

My main task was to develop, maintain and grow the initial database. It was my first contact with many of the technologies like Python/Django, APIs/JSON and Heroku.
