Lucas Cunha

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

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

00 about

I build production AI agents and the cloud infrastructure they run on. Today I lead DevOps and infrastructure at Civic Technologies — including the Civic MCP, a security control plane that connects AI agents to 95+ enterprise tools with guardrails, audit logging, and secure credential management.

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, treat this as a fingerprint, not a measure.
