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 at Axur. 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.

Right now

Building AI-driven security products and experimenting with agentic workflows that turn natural language into operational infrastructure.

Writing about what AI is actually changing, and what philosophy has to say about it.

Reading Heidegger on technology. Wondering whether Gelassenheit scales.

What I do

Build

AI-driven cybersecurity products at Axur: threat intelligence, orchestration, and a conversational AI platform for security investigations. The interesting part is the layer where product decisions meet operational judgment.

Write

Essays on what AI is actually changing, and what philosophy has to say about it. Not commentary on the news cycle; longer arguments about shared fictions, conceptual clarity, and the conditions of meaning.

Translate

Between philosophical precision and operational reality. Threat models, product decisions, and security strategy all depend on getting the concepts right before getting the implementation right. The method is the same one I learned in philosophy: clarify the assumptions, find the distinctions that matter, and test them under pressure.

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. The full version of the story is on the about page; earlier work is in the archive.
