Senior Software Engineer at Postilize | Backend Node.js Developer

    In 2004, at the age of 14, I encountered my first computer vulnerability. Through exploration and experimentation, I uncovered a method to exploit the search functionality on Windows computers, inadvertently exposing all machines on the network. While my curiosity led me to remotely connect to these computers, I refrained from engaging in any malicious activities, such as tampering with my French teacher's exams. This early encounter sparked my interest in cybersecurity and software development, laying the foundation for my career path.

    Over the past decade, I have dedicated myself to the field of cybersecurity and software engineering. Currently, I contribute as a Senior Software Engineer at Postilize, a company leveraging AI to Acquire & Grow Customers With AI Assistants. Specializing in Node.js for backend development and utilizing React.js with the MUI framework for the frontend, I am deeply involved in crafting robust solutions that meet the needs of our clients.

    With a focus on backend development, I bring my expertise to Postilize to drive innovation and excellence in our products. From building scalable services to enriching and correlating data for customer acquisition and growth, I am committed to delivering high-quality solutions that exceed expectations.

    In addition to my professional endeavors, I actively participate in bug bounty programs and have embarked on creating my own reconnaissance scripts for Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) gathering. By immersing myself in the methods employed by hackers to breach systems, I enhance my understanding and proficiency, enabling me to fortify defenses in my professional undertakings.

    Beyond the realm of technology, I cherish spending quality time with my family, immersing myself in the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and nurturing the outdoors through gardening adventures.
