André Buchmann Müller

I am a hands-on engineer passionate about both analog and digital technology. My focus lies at the intersection of computational science and construction.

Currently, I am a Consultant at DB Engineering & Consulting and a Master's candidate in Construction Innovation at Universidade de São Paulo. Previously, I managed complex infrastructure projects for THEMAG Engenharia. Here's my CV.

I like to express myself through technical-creative endeavors such as exploring analog photography, tinkering with modular synthesizers or 3D printers, cooking, and studying chess.
