Aug. 2022 - Jan. 2024São Paulo, BrazilAs a Technology Executive Leader in banking and financial services, I led high-performing teams and developed innovative solutions. While leading high-performing technology teams, I also served as Delivery Leader for other disciplines like DevOps, Data Engineering, Mobile, and Quality Assurance, ensuring seamless collaboration across these teams to achieve unified delivery excellence. I oversaw a team of nearly 200 professionals driving success across XP's credit and debit cards, Open Finance initiatives, retail and wholesale digital banking platforms, and a global dollar debit account solution. I spearheaded strategic initiatives to achieve key objectives, including ensuring high system availability (reaching four-nines uptime for core systems), mitigating internal risks and cybersecurity threats, strengthening fraud prevention controls, managing a multi-million BRL budget efficiently, and driving an evolving digital transformation strategy that went beyond simply upskilling the team.

Nov. 2018 - Aug. 2022São Paulo Area, BrazilI spearheaded the launch of a new bank in Brazil, developing a technology strategy compliant with Central Bank regulations. My team and I defined the solution architecture for products, presenting concepts and strategies to senior leaders. We secured the operating license in Q4 2019 and launched our first credit product (facilitating early redemption of investment funds) that same year. Subsequently, we rapidly expanded our team to create a competitive digital account (offering balance inquiries, statements, Pix – Brazil's instant payment system – integration, bill payments, etc.) and a diverse credit portfolio (including over 10 collateralized credit products). I managed a team of approximately 150 people (engineers of all levels, engineering managers, and senior engineering managers) across various squads focused on credit products, credit risk, collateral, foreign exchange, and business transactional services.

Jan. 2017 - Nov. 2018São Paulo Area, BrazilAs an engineering manager, I led a team that grew from 4 to 15 people within a year. We were responsible for core functions like checking accounts, internal cash management, the SPB (Brazil's payment network), settlements with external banks, fraud prevention, and credit collateral management. Recognizing the bank's rapid growth and future vision, I mentored several team members to become leaders in software architecture, agile methodologies, checking accounts, and credit. I successfully promoted two team members to engineering manager and one to software architect, all reporting to me. In addition, I took on product management and agile practices, collaborating effectively with a wide range of stakeholders. My dedication was recognized in 2017 when I became a partner in the company. XP is unique in that approximately 10% of its employees are partners.
