Paulo Cavalcante

Paulo Cavalcante is an accomplished software engineer with a career spanning several years in the technology sector. Throughout his journey, he has contributed to a variety of projects, including developing solutions for payroll loans, logistics companies, and working with one of Brazil's largest insurance companies. 

Paulo's technical expertise is complemented by his strong leadership abilities, and he is currently focused on honing the skills required to achieve his long-term goal of becoming a Chief Technology Officer (CTO). Whether by founding his own company or taking on this role within an organization, he is dedicated to driving innovation and technological growth. 

Paulo is passionate about the intersection of technology and society, particularly in areas such as data privacy, security, and the development of community-driven solutions. He is deeply aware of the urgency surrounding these issues, particularly in Brazil, which has seen a rise in cyberattacks and data breaches, such as the 2023 leak from a Brazilian digital bank that exposed the personal data of 20 million customers. Paulo is motivated by the potential to create solutions that not only address these vulnerabilities but also empower communities to develop and maintain these systems independently, offering more adaptable and agile alternatives to solutions controlled by large corporations or governments.
