01 / HI, I’M RENATO.
Curious by
nature.
Nerd by
choice.
I build bridges between technology and people. From code to leadership — and from questions to possibilities.
Computer vision, remote sensing and machine learning are part of my story. So are music, diversity and curiosity.
Explore the chapters02 / LEADERSHIP
Lead.
Connect.
Scale.
I lead people and platforms that bring machine learning and AI into production.
I connect science, engineering, data and product teams to turn models and proofs of concept into cloud-based solutions, integrated with products and ready to operate at scale.
My work brings together technical strategy, roadmaps, priorities and alignment across teams. The focus is creating the conditions for teams to build and evolve reliable, observable solutions that people adopt — connecting scientific depth to the needs of those who use them.
03 / DIVERSITY & BELONGING
Room to be
your whole self.
Vulnerability is part of leadership, too.
Sharing vulnerability with the people I lead is part of building trust. Diversity, listening and room to be ourselves are part of how I think about leadership.
“How do we create room for people to be themselves?”
04 / BEYOND THE JOB TITLE
One mind.
Many worlds.
The most interesting ideas often emerge from connections.
I’ve been singing since I was nine, and I enjoy playing the drums. Music is part of who I am, alongside the joy of coding, investigating and learning new things.
CODE / BUILD
Understanding by doing.
Coding is a way of thinking: breaking down a problem, trying an idea and turning a hypothesis into something that works.
05 / UNDER THE HOOD
A leader.
An engineer
at heart.
I like understanding how things work. I like making them work even more.
My work spans computer vision, geometry, geospatial data and software engineering. Today, leadership also means connecting that technical foundation to science, products and the people who will use them.
From pixels to the real world.
At Protector, I contributed as a technical leader to a challenge combining on-device ML with the transformation of image coordinates into real-world measurements. Camera calibration, projective geometry and geodesy came together in a product solution.
Seeing beyond an image.
Since 2021, my work has included leading Remote Sensing and Computer Vision teams. Satellite imagery and geospatial data are part of a larger system: acquisition, processing, models and product integration.
The model is just the beginning.
A model needs to reach production, be observable and find its users. My work connects science to platforms, APIs, MLOps and architectural decisions — with attention to operations and adoption beyond the proof of concept.
