    Own product (study platform) (organization name withheld)

    • Payments with signed, idempotent webhooks and access revocation in the same transaction.
    • Security review of the system's own business logic, with flaws reproduced and fixed.
    • CI with 8 jobs, enforced CSP and mandatory 2FA on the admin panel.

    • Owner of the roadmap, architecture, scalability and security and compliance (LGPD); I built the group's platform end to end.
    • Own site and CRM on edge infrastructure, replacing a SaaS, with cookieless privacy.

    • A technical hiring method with challenges, a live defense and a human decision, designed but not yet used.
