@lucmir·Senior Full-Stack Engineer · AI Agents & Cloud Infra·Belo Horizonte, BR

Lucas Cunha

Builds AI agents, and the cloud infrastructure they run on.

15+ years building and operating large-scale distributed systems. I work across product, cloud, AI/MCP, and identity, with a soft spot for observability, incident response, and architectures that hold up under real users. Currently building AI agents at Civic Technologies, where I also lead DevOps and infrastructure.

about

I build production AI agents and the cloud infrastructure they run on. Today I'm a full-stack engineer and DevOps lead at Civic Technologies. I build Civic MCP, a security control plane connecting AI agents to 95+ enterprise tools with guardrails, audit logging, and secure credential management; and Bryn, a signal-based GTM product where LLM agents identify company visitors and act on intent signals in real time.

Before the AI focus, I spent 15+ years building and operating large-scale distributed systems: full-stack engineering across identity, payments, and on-chain credentials; cloud architecture on AWS with Kubernetes, Terraform, and GitOps; observability and incident response at scale.

BSc + MSc in Computer Science from UFMG. Comfortable in TypeScript, Node.js, Python, React, and Next.js, and increasingly in writing the agents that write the code.

Caveat: Commit count is a silly metric. Green squares aren't shipped software.
