About SignalCore

Built where monitoring software meets operational reality.

SignalCore is created by Mateus Morais, a Tech Lead and Senior Software Engineer whose experience spans mining, geotechnical monitoring, industrial automation, field infrastructure, and full-stack product development.

’09

Where it began

“Monitoring systems are often very good at collecting data and generating alarms. The gap is what happens afterward.”

Mateus began working in mining in 2009 and later became responsible for geotechnical monitoring within an automation department. The work was practical and multidisciplinary: wireless networks, cameras, radars, monitoring sensors, software evaluation, integrations, and the field infrastructure required to keep critical data moving.

Working in mining through the period surrounding the 2015 Samarco disaster reinforced the seriousness of monitoring and response. Reliable instrumentation matters, but so do the decisions, inspections, evidence, escalation, and accountability that follow an important alarm.

That distinction—between detecting a condition and managing the organizational response—became the foundation for SignalCore.

A connected path

Domain knowledge, systems thinking, and software engineering.

The experience behind SignalCore was built across the full chain—from sensors and networks in the field to application architecture, integrations, deployment, and production support.

01 / MINING & AUTOMATION

Field foundation

Understanding the systems behind the data.

Early work in mining and automation created direct exposure to instrumentation, industrial networks, radars, cameras, monitoring sensors, and the realities of operating technical systems in demanding environments.

02 / INFRASTRUCTURE & FIELD SOFTWARE

Support to product development

Seeing how software behaves outside the lab.

Years supporting production applications, SQL databases, virtualization, firewalls, switches, VPNs, and private cloud environments led naturally into building enterprise mobile and Windows applications for geomatics and field operations.

03 / SOFTWARE PRODUCT ENGINEERING

Desktop, web, mobile, and cloud

Learning to own the complete product lifecycle.

Work across C#/.NET, REST APIs, web and mobile applications, Docker, automated testing, CI/CD, performance, and production support developed a practical engineering approach: clear architecture, observable systems, and maintainable solutions without unnecessary complexity.

04 / GEOTECHNICAL PRODUCT LEADERSHIP

2024 to present

Bringing software leadership back to monitoring.

Mateus later returned to geotechnical monitoring software, helping develop and mature products used in mining and civil engineering. The work spans .NET, Angular, SQL, background processing, integrations, data visualization, and cloud or on-premises deployment.

He remains hands-on with systems that process monitoring data from vendor APIs, GNSS, Robotic Total Stations, and other field technologies—translating operational requirements into dependable product capabilities.

Creating SignalCore

A product shaped by both sides of the system.

SignalCore combines domain experience with the discipline of modern product engineering. It is being built around explicit operational rules, a complete Signal lifecycle, and the principle that meaningful actions and decisions should remain historically understandable.

The platform’s direction includes threshold evaluation, notifications, ownership, work queues, inspections, TARP response actions, spatial context, permissions, audit history, and the immutable Signal Timeline that connects them.

Underneath that product model is a deliberate technical foundation using .NET, ASP.NET Core, Entity Framework Core, Angular, SQL Server, Docker, automated testing, structured logging, and clear architectural boundaries.

The technology is important. The operational outcome is the point.

The central insight

Detection is a system event. Response is an organizational process.

After something important is detected, people must understand it, establish responsibility, investigate, perform field work, follow procedures, collect evidence, escalate, decide, and close the issue responsibly.

SignalCore exists to make that process coherent—and to preserve the complete operational story after the alarm.

Domain-groundedBuilt from direct mining, automation, and geotechnical monitoring experience.

Product-ledInformed by technical leadership across architecture, delivery, integrations, and operations.
