Nuno Brites Email & Phone Number

I've always been passionate about technology, computers, programming, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence since I was 13 years old. 🚀 This interest has only grown stronger over time.At 14, in 2018, I embarked on a professional journey by enrolling in a course on Management and Programming of Information Systems. 📚 This decision marked the beginning of my career. During this course, I gained hands-on experience in various roles. I worked as an intern IT teacher 👨‍🏫, honed my programming skills as an intern at OutSystems 💻, and served as an intern software technician at CPCECHO. Upon completing my internship, I was offered a position as a software developer 💼.In parallel, I pursued and successfully completed the CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) training 🌐, which deepened my understanding of networking principles. This complemented my higher education coursework, where I focused on network and computer systems engineering. Concurrently, I continued to work part-time as a software developer for the same company mentioned earlier, further expanding my knowledge.However, I strategically decided to discontinue my university course. This choice was driven by my desire to prioritize my time and resources, concentrating on areas of learning that would significantly enhance my professional development.One of the highlights of my journey is my project, navigate.AI 🚗, developed during my last year of the professional course. This project involved creating a script/model for training an Artificial Intelligence (AI) capable of interpreting data extracted from an autonomous driving simulator. The data included images, acceleration, steering wheel rotation angle, and accelerator pressure. Through a Deep Neural Network 🧠, I crafted an AI model capable of guiding a car. The project also featured a script designed to reproduce a pre-trained model in a simulator, allowing for performance evaluation.I'm proud to share that this project earned me recognition 🏆, as it was selected for a nationwide competition of best Professional Aptitude Projects (PAPs). This achievement resulted in my being awarded a postgraduate degree in data science 📜.In summary, my journey has been shaped by a deep-seated passion for technology, Linux, programming, cybersecurity, and AI. With a strong foundation in Linux, networking, and software, coupled with my practical experience, I am well-equipped to contribute effectively and thrive in the dynamic and ever-evolving field of technology and cybersecurity.
