About me

Mário Cardoso


As a young and enthusiastic Information Systems Engineer, I am always striving for better results. I excel in bridging the gap between business requirements and technical capabilities, effectively communicating complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. With a passion for leveraging technology to drive business success and enhance operational efficiency, I bring adaptability, strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and a collaborative approach to every project. I thrive in changing environments and enjoy working as part of a team.

I have an Master degree in Engineering and Management of Information System from University of Minho - Portugal but in this present Era of competitive requirements, not withstanding with the acquired know-how, it's my main guide to keep searching, learning and improving my skills.

When I'm not in front of a computer screen, I'm probably dancing, cruising around or planning my next challenge.
