About William

I am a Software Engineer specialized in Java, Quarkus, and Spring Boot, with over 3 years of experience building scalable, secure, and high-performance microservices. I help banking, fintech, and startup companies transform their processes through modern architectures, robust APIs, and cloud-ready solutions.

My value proposition focuses on optimizing performance, ensuring quality with CI/CD, and designing modular services that reduce maintenance costs. I am proficient in integrating with databases such as PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server, and Oracle Database, as well as deploying in containers and Kubernetes/OpenShift.

Additionally, I bring a full-stack vision, developing interfaces with React.js to create fluid and efficient user experiences. I am accustomed to working in agile environments, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, and ensuring quality deliverables within demanding deadlines.

I have participated in projects involving banking integration, payment gateways, REST APIs, notifications, and service orchestration, always prioritizing scalability and security.
