Developer and infrastructure specialist from Parana, Brazil.
I build practical systems around computer vision, network automation, observability, cybersecurity, and DevOps. My current production focus is SAMA, a machine vision system for smoke and fire detection in Brazilian farms.
- Computer vision and machine vision applied to real-world monitoring.
- Network infrastructure, Linux, Zabbix, NetFlow, BGP, FRR, MikroTik, Huawei, and automation.
- Python-first builder, with Shell, PowerShell, HTML, and JavaScript when the job needs it.
- Interested in open source, practical AI tooling, incident response, and reliable monitoring systems.
- Open to collaborations around machine vision, infrastructure automation, and security tooling.

SAMA is a machine vision project focused on early detection of smoke and fire in rural environments.
The goal is to turn camera streams and image data into actionable alerts for farms, helping reduce response time in environmental risk scenarios. The project connects my experience in infrastructure, monitoring, automation, and AI into a single production-oriented system.
What I am working on:
- Smoke and fire detection using computer vision models.
- Alerting workflows for operational teams.
- Edge-friendly inference and practical deployment.
- Documentation for field usage and future contributors.
Status: private production project.
I also contribute fixes and documentation improvements to Python and infrastructure-related projects.
| Project | Contribution Area |
|---|---|
| Ansible | Documentation improvements for module behavior and infrastructure automation |
| pandas | CSV parser regression fixes, docs improvements, and parser behavior tests |
| Textual | Documentation fixes and Windows input handling improvements |
| Scrapy | Asyncio documentation around component initialization and reactor behavior |
| humanize | Python utility improvements |
| AVE / Agent tooling | Agentic vulnerability enumeration and developer tooling |
| Machine vision resources | Curated practical references for computer vision, edge AI, and fire/smoke detection |
Showing that I like to build, collaborate, and merge.
| Project | Focus | Help Wanted |
|---|---|---|
| SAMA | Machine vision for smoke/fire detection | Dataset, model evaluation, deployment feedback |
| Awesome Machine Vision | Practical computer vision resources | Tools, papers, datasets, edge AI links |
| Network Automation Toolkit | Scripts and tools for real infrastructure operations | Testing on more vendors and topologies |
| Observability + AI | Zabbix, NetFlow, logs, anomaly detection | Ideas, integrations, dashboards |

I like building tools that are useful in production, not only in demos.
