Paulo Portela

Data Engineer at Openvia Portugal

Who am I?

I’m a fun person with a passion for learning and innovating. As a native of Porto, I love exploring the city, enjoying its unique corners and experiencing the vibrant local culture.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing paddle tennis, dining out and socialising with friends. I also love travelling and keeping up to date with what’s new in the world of technology and IT.

What´s my story?

I completed my degree in Computer Science at Universidade Portucalense in 2021 and, since 2022, I’ve been studying for a master’s degree in Data Science and Engineering at FEUP, and I’m currently finalising my thesis. I’ve always had a keen interest in Artificial Intelligence, Data Science and Machine Learning, which led me to pursue this master’s programme.

Until then, I worked as a Software Engineer, but in this new challenge I’m going to apply all the knowledge I’ve acquired over the last few years, together with the knowledge from my master’s degree, in a new position as a Data Engineer, which is the role I’m going to embrace here.

I’m very excited and looking forward to starting this new stage.

What do I do at Openvia?

As a Data Engineer, I’m responsible for analyzing data (SQL and No-SQL), developing ETL pipelines, Big Data solutions and real-time analytics, using Cloud technologies (AWS), collaborating with stakeholders and coordinating teams on data projects.

Ask me about…?

Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, Software Development or even where to find the best francesinha in Porto!
