Full-Stack Developer / Quality Engineer & Mentor
Jan 2026 - Ongoing2 months
Project Overview

This is an innovative AI-first platform dedicated to creating custom reinforcement learning (RL) environments for training advanced AI models. The primary users are AI researchers, developers, and teams building next-generation intelligent agents that learn through trial-and-error interactions in simulated settings. Core functionality includes procedurally generating dynamic RL environments (defining states, actions, rewards, and transitions), enabling scalable model training via interaction-based learning, and integrating AI-driven code generation to accelerate development. The project embodies the future of software engineering, where AI handles the majority of code creation under optimized rules and commands, maximizing efficiency and automation while maintaining high standards through human oversight.

Responsibilities:
  • He ensures the quality of AI-generated code deliveries by implementing rigorous end-to-end (E2E) tests, significantly reducing regressions, enhancing overall reliability, and successfully maintaining high delivery standards in a fully AI-generated codebase.
  • He continuously improves code quality through in-depth reviews, targeted refactoring guidance, and strict enforcement of best practices within an AI-heavy development workflow.
  • He mentors new team members, accelerating their onboarding and ramp-up in a cutting-edge, fast-paced AI-first environment by sharing expertise on optimization rules, command structures, and effective human-AI collaboration techniques.
  • He contributes to refining development workflows by focusing on advanced rules and commands that enable maximum optimization, productivity, and scalability in AI-assisted coding—playing a key role in realizing a visionary paradigm where AI handles nearly all code generation, with human emphasis on quality gates, strategic improvements, and positioning the project as a forward-looking example of future software engineering.

Project Overview

Brazilian AI-first technology company specializing in artificial intelligence solutions for customer service. Drawing from over two decades of experience in software development and process automation, the platform transforms business communication by using natural language as the primary bridge between people and systems. Primary users are businesses (from small to enterprise) and their end-customers, who interact via messaging channels (e.g., WhatsApp, web chat) for support, inquiries, and transactions. Core functionality includes intent understanding from natural language inputs, orchestration of action chains (e.g., API calls, data retrieval, responses), reliable message handling to prevent loss, real-time LLM behavior correction, and seamless automation of repetitive service tasks to enable faster, more accurate, and scalable customer interactions.

Responsibilities:
  • He built the entire AWS infrastructure from scratch, designing a resilient, scalable cloud environment that supported the platform's complete growth from MVP to stable production launch without any downtime or data loss, establishing robust foundations for natural language-driven automation in a high-stakes customer service setting.
  • He engineered a highly resilient messaging and action orchestration system that eliminated risks of massive message loss during high-volume interactions or transient failures, achieving critical high availability and reliable processing under peak loads for real-time customer service demands.
  • He developed the core AI engine end-to-end, which accurately understood user intent from natural language, translated it into executable chains of actions across integrated systems, and guaranteed reliable request execution—enabling seamless translation of user queries into automated workflows and positioning the platform as a transformative tool for Brazilian businesses in customer communication.
  • He implemented an innovative real-time penalty and feedback system for the LLM, which enabled rapid detection and correction of incorrect behaviors, dramatically improving response accuracy, reducing errors in live interactions, and significantly enhancing the quality and trustworthiness of AI-generated responses.
