I'm currently a backend engineer working with a big financial infrastructure. At Uphold — a fintech regulated under MiCA and supervised by Banco de Portugal — I build and maintain the systems that keep company and client funds correctly balanced across wallets and exchanges: transactions verification, transaction orchestration, and custody. I'm also finishing a Master's in Software Engineering at the University of Minho, on top of a Bachelor's from the same university.
