We developed small projects using Beacons, Web, and Mobile (Ionic) environments. After some months, we created five projects using those platforms and methodologies, and this number increased. I’ve acted hands-on in several activities, always trying to give my best.

With former colleagues, we began a startup to work with IT for Healthcare. In the company, my main activities were technology definition, architecture, and programming with Angular 2+ and Java 8 as our main programming languages. In the company, we work strongly with cloud solutions at Amazon / AWS using a series of services and technologies from this provider, such as:* AWS-Client for Java* AWS-Client for NodeJS* S3* Lambda* Cloud Formation* EC2* RCTDuring this work, we created a product for hospital data analytics and another one that integrates data from Brazilian hospitals into a clinical trial platform from Switzerland.
