  During my tenure at Petrobras, I was responsible for leading the Linux and Unix Operating Systems team in the South São Paulo Region.

The team supported internal teams working with Oracle and SQL databases, as well as Weblogic, JBoss, IIS applications, and provided assistance to development teams.I actively participated in the Corporate Printing Optimization Program, which involved optimizing printer pools, standardization, server consolidation, and job billing treatment (developed in Python and Perl). The projects included the migration of over 95,000 users and 9,000 printers across units in Brazil and abroad.During the printing optimization program, the group I led developed an in-house printing solution for iPads and iPhones exclusively for Petrobras' top management. The environment featured redundancy and had the capacity to support approximately 200 printers and over 2,000 tablets.I was responsible for the technical definition of several Request for Proposals (RFPs), including the RFP for the procurement of Virtual Desktops hosted in a Cloud Computing environment (HVD) and the RFP for the procurement of print server administration services. I served as a project manager in the implementation of Linux Desktops and supported various initiatives involving the use of open-source software within Petrobras.I also acted as the technical leader for a High-Performance Computing (HPC) solution with a 16-server Cluster (192 CPUs) for parallel processing in the research department. The in-house development of this solution resulted in savings exceeding 1 million reais for the company. Show less
