A philosopher who builds AI and cybersecurity products, and writes to understand what that means.
Two decades in academic philosophy (Wittgenstein, Cavell, skepticism), then a move into threat intelligence and AI-driven security: first at Axur, now at Infoblox, which acquired Axur in 2026. The method carried over: take things apart, test the assumptions, refuse to mistake fluency for understanding. This site is where I work that out in public.

About
I grew up in the 1980s in a small town in southern Brazil, watching Star Trek and taking apart every machine I could find. That impulse led first to computers, then to philosophy, then back to technology: same operation, different objects. Clarify the assumptions, find the distinctions that matter, test them under pressure.
