    Software Engineer@ Mercado Livre (Mercado Pago)

    • Payment processing and clearing at Mercado Pago, one of Latin America’s largest payment acquirers (US$ 100B+ in payment volume per quarter).
    • Built a Visa simulator for E2E testing: certification cycles went from ~24 hours to a few minutes (>99% less). Adopted by all 5 clearing teams (~50 engineers) and used to certify 3+ business initiatives.
    • Go and Java microservices with hexagonal and clean architecture, backed by E2E test suites, guarding transaction integrity on critical flows.
    • Circuit breakers, rate limiting and idempotency guarantees against cascading failures and duplicate transactions. Owned mission-critical production releases.
    • On call for payment processing and clearing: production incidents traced to root cause with Datadog (APM, tracing, logs, monitors) and Grafana.
