About
We are not a vendor.We are part of your team.
DevOps engineers (who keep the infrastructure running) and FinOps engineers (who manage what it costs) working inside the routine of companies that use cloud without a senior team to run it. The practice is certified by the FinOps Foundation — a credential still few hold in Brazil.
How we operate
We don't run a diagnostic and leave.
A senior Samax FinOps or DevOps professional takes on real routines inside the client's team: they decide, apply and follow the change through alongside the client's engineering.
That changes what experience is worth. What a Samax engineer solves by hand for one client becomes, for the next one, a rule in the platform and in the agent that watches the account — the list of what to automate comes from what the team actually did, not from a roadmap. That's why the result doesn't run out after the first cost cut: with every client, more of the work already arrives done.
If you want to compare this with one-off consulting, FinOps tooling or an in-house team, see the four paths, side by side.
Who is behind the operation
Lucio Cordeiro
CEO and Co-Founder
Certified by the FinOps Foundation, the international body that defines FinOps practice — a rare credential in Brazil: today, around 30 professionals in the country hold this certification.
LinkedInGuilherme Dias
CTO and Co-Founder
Engineer trained at ITA — Brazil's Aeronautics Institute of Technology — with a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence. That background shapes Samax's AI layer: the one that spots waste and prioritizes what to tackle, while engineers inside the client's team apply and follow through on each change.
LinkedInRafael Calixto
COO and Co-Founder
Second-time founder: he founded Scalable and raised R$ 20M to expand credit for SaaS companies. At Samax he runs the entire operation and sets the strategic direction for client service and value delivery.
