Summary
With experience dating back to 2005, I've worked in several companies of proven relevance in Portugal. My career has always been developed in the finance department, where I've always been involved in monthly salary processing obligations (such as: salary calculation, payment to employees and payment of the respective taxes).
Taking into account my payroll experience, I was invited to work for a programming company, where I've been working since 2017. I started by specifying and updating all legislation rules in to the payroll module, and I'm now also responsible for optimizing the calculation and defining the processes implemented for calculating, hiring and terminating employees.
In this role, I am responsible for the testing and architecture team for the payroll and accounting modules.
At the same time, I am the responsible accountant in a few companies, in which I am responsible for payroll, which allows me to keep aware of the daily tasks needs.
I consider myself to be a very proactive and organised person, always managing to optimise our product, which I consider to be an asset for the users of our product, which currently covers more than 50.000 accountants.
