Rodolfo Santos

Lead Backend Engineer building banking APIs and scalable, event-driven systems that handle millions of transactions without drama.


About

I am a Lead Backend Engineer with deep experience designing, building, and scaling backend systems in the financial and telecommunications industries. I work primarily in Java and Spring Boot, within cloud-native and microservices architectures.

I care about clean architecture, testability, and systems that are boring to operate. I lead backend teams, shape the SDLC, and build for performance: high-throughput, event-driven services that stay reliable under real load.
