Jailton Andrade

I’m looking for remote senior backend or tech lead roles at product companies (fintech, payments, banking), US/global in USD or Brazilian in BRL. At Itaú Unibanco, I directed technical work on a revolving-credit and account-limit platform with a portfolio above BRL 2 billion. I helped cut product incidents by 50%, reduce MTTR by 25%, and lower infrastructure costs by 20%. I also introduced AI-assisted engineering initiatives using GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Devin, helping increase delivery throughput 30% year over year. I mentored two engineering teams on architecture, API contracts, authentication, and resilience patterns. At Itaú Unibanco, I worked on financial platforms including IT Now, an ETF investment platform integrating a JavaScript front end with a Java back end. I also developed solutions for credit origination and account management, and built integrations with banking, risk, and collections systems. Earlier, I helped stabilize a delayed Santander branch teller-system project and contributed to Porto Seguro's legacy modernization. My work has focused on Java and Spring systems, microservices, and financial services across banking and insurance. I built a Pix integration feature and designed event-driven services with Kafka, handling idempotency and high-volume financial transactions.
