José Gomes Pinheiro Machado (8 May 1851 – 8 September 1915) was a Brazilian republican politician. He fought for the establishment of the Republic in Brazil and for its consolidation.

He fought on the republican side in the Federalist Revolution (Revolução Federalista), commanding the North Division (Divisão do Norte) and winning a victory over the monarchist forces at the battle of Passo Fundo in 1894.

He was a senator for the state of Rio Grande do Sul from 1890 until his assassination in 1915.[1]
