- My name is Victor Neves, but you can call me Victor.
- My fascination with technology began at age 11, evolving into a Mechanical Engineering degree from UNICAMP and ongoing studies in Information Systems at XP Educação. I've completed two lato sensu postgraduate degrees in AI and Computer Science, along with specializations in Data Analytics and Project Management, both achieved at Google.
- I'm a lifelong learner, dedicated to sharing knowledge at any opportunity. Feel free to reach out to me anytime. I'd love to talk about anything professional, hobbies, or life.
- I currently work at SEBRAE, focusing on empowering small and medium enterprises through technology and innovation. I plan to transition to tech ASAP.
- My hobbies include working out, playing the piano, manga, manhwas, anime, coding and competing in bootcamps.
- Languages: Fluent in Portuguese and English, conversational in Spanish, and learning Korean. Know some phrases in German and French.
- I was once obese and became a huge proponent of a healthy lifestyle, low-calorie dense foods and IF, read more in my book.
- Some references: CS Lewis, Christopher Nolan, Seon-Yong Hwang, Michael Greger MD, Thomas Delauer, Mike Winger, Dr Mike and AI Explained.
- I am deeply passionate about using technology to solve practical and complex problems in business and society.
- Proficient in Python for data science and AI, multiple web development frameworks (React, Flutter, Angular), Agile methodologies (Scrum, Lean Six Sigma), strategic and marketing planning, business intelligence tools (PowerBI, Tableau, Looker), databases (SQL, MongoDB, Neo4j), and engineering software.
- You can find more about my professional journey and personal projects on my website, my LinkedIn and my GitHub profile.
- I work in-person but am looking for a remote position—if you have anything, I'd love to hear more.
- I approach work with a balance of strategic planning and agile methodologies, ensuring that I stay ahead of trends in AI/tech and project management.
- I love to use Google Calendar and a Task Management system (mostly Google Tasks nowadays).
- I generally use my headphones when deeply focused (about the flow state).
- I live in Brasil. In the GMT -3 time zone.
- My work ethic is characterized by dedication, continuous learning, and an open mindset towards innovation.
- Communication is key for me; I prefer structured emails and scheduled meetings.
- Work-Life balance is important to me, and I advocate for a healthy work environment that fosters both personal growth and professional excellence.
- While I prefer asynchronous communication, I'm not opposed to meetings when necessary. I value their importance but believe not everything requires a meeting.
- Please include your topic when you message me; don't just say Hello. For more on effective messaging, refer to nohello.net.
- I take communication seriously and often silence all notifications to focus intensely. For urgent matters requiring immediate attention, follow these steps:
- Please be direct in your communications; I adhere to the nohello policy and appreciate straight-to-the-point conversations.
- I am meticulous about organization:
- Meetings should have an agenda and, if possible, pre-reads to ensure productivity.
- I expect meetings to end within the scheduled time; prolonged discussions need rescheduling.
- Punctuality is crucial for me; I arrive early to prepare and expect timely starts, with a 15-minute grace period for delays.
- Accountability is key; if you miss a meeting without a valid reason, I will follow up to understand the circumstances.
- I encourage video calls to enhance connection and communication, especially if you are not feeling well or are traveling.
- My values include honesty, kindness, straightforwardness, objectivity, openness, and responsibility. I welcome feedback and constructive criticism.
- Commitments are taken seriously; once I agree to something, you can trust it will be done. I do not require frequent reminders.
- I enjoy casual conversations and may not respond immediately if it's not urgent. Please be patient, and if I don't reply within two days, feel free to nudge me.
- While this might sound like a list of rules, I'm actually very flexible and open to discussing anything. Always eager for feedback to improve, don't hesitate to approach me with your thoughts 😄 — I promise, no hard feelings!
