Portrait of Marcello Ronald

Hello!! I am Marcello Ronald!

// Who am I?

Full-Stack & AI Software Engineer (UFG) focused on turning complex business problems into scalable web applications and production LLM workflows. With hands-on experience building multi-tenant AI platforms at CognX and public-sector systems for the State Government of Goiás (SEAD), I work end to end — from requirements and hexagonal back-end architecture (.NET, Python/FastAPI) to modern front ends (React, Next.js, Angular) and cloud deployment on GCP.

// What I do

Software Engineering is the discipline of designing, building, and maintaining reliable, scalable systems — from data models, distributed messaging, and LLM orchestration pipelines to the interfaces real users touch. I work across the stack: C#/.NET and Python/FastAPI back ends in clean/hexagonal architecture, React, Next.js, and Angular front ends, and the architectural decisions (ADRs, TDD, CI/CD) that keep systems maintainable in production.

AI in my workflow

Beyond building production AI agents and RAG pipelines for clients, I use coding agents as active collaborators for research, code review, and rapid prototyping — with TDD, Testcontainers, and strict architecture boundaries as guardrails.

    Full-Stack & AI Software Engineer · CognX

    Engineered and evolved AI-driven products from concept to production at CognX, an AI orchestration startup. Key deliveries:
    • Lead developer of the company's multi-product AI agent platform in production at a large enterprise client: .NET 10 back end (hexagonal architecture, MongoDB) and Next.js 16 / React 19 monorepo on Google Cloud Run.
    • Architected and built the recruiting and multi-tenant administration modules (users, groups, and per-company permissions via Clerk), integrated with WhatsApp, Langflow, and Senior HCM — authoring 7 of the module’s 8 Architecture Decision Records (ADRs).
    • Built the API and dashboard for an AI recruiting SaaS MVP in ASP.NET Core with TDD (xUnit, Testcontainers), WhatsApp candidate screening with OpenAI audio transcription, and Asaas subscription billing (Pix, card, slip).
    • Contributed to a client's production WhatsApp AI assistant (building the Chroma RAG document ingestion service) and overhauled their Node.js/Redis/PostgreSQL notification service — fixing a critical Meta token renewal failure, adding Slack alerts, and automating deploys with health checks and rollback.
