Software Developer in São Paulo - State of São Paulo, Brazil

A Ruby gem that fetches and caches historical currency exchange rates. It uses two layers of cache, Redis and memory. I initially developed it as part of a Skyscanner project. Later, it was extracted into a separate public repo so that other developers can benefit.

Investigated tools for developing mobile cross-platform libraries that could be shared among all Skyscanner apps and built prototypes using these technologies. Up to the publication of this research, while many mobile cross-platform development tools were widely used for sharing the whole codebase between apps of different platforms, the use case of building a library to share only a piece of functionality had never been considered before. The results of this research with code samples were published in three blog posts.

Developed an augmented reality game for a Tango tablet (an Android tablet loaded with AR sensors) as a side-project. It was coded in Java using the Android and Tango libraries.

The game's purpose is to capture targets spread around an area that you have previously scanned (e.g. a room, a floor) in the shortest time possible. There is a timer and a score. Capturing targets increases the score and the time you have available. The game ends when you run out of time. It was a very simple game, but very fun to play, and especially very fun to code with these amazing sensors.
