Work Experience

Staff Front-end Engineer

2017 - PRESENT
Close CRM
  • Revamped the entire front-end development environment, from Grunt and RequireJS to Webpack with code splitting and ES2015 modules.
  • Specced and developed the new opportunities pipeline view—a Kanban-style board for salespeople to manage their sales opportunities with prospects.
  • Designed and developed the call coaching feature with Twilio, adding the ability to join a coworker call and choose between listen (passively listen to the call), whisper (talk only to the coworker), and barge (talk to the coworker and the prospect).
  • Built and developed the visual query builder for our search engine. Close had a mighty search engine, but customers needed to be too tech-savvy to filter their prospects. A beautiful tree-like UI was developed to solve this complex problem.
  • Led the web UI performance and open-source tech areas. Reduced the general first load of the app by approximately 33%. Open-source projects like use-infinite-scroll, react-custom-scroller, and micro are available on https://github.com/closeio.

Senior Front-end Developer

2016 - 2017
Essential Algorithms Solutions
  • Maintained and improved the performance of a legacy AngularJS app.
  • Created an intermediary Node.js server to normalize WebSockets data and reduce the number of messages sent between the browser and the server.
  • Refactored the entire front end of the app, from AngularJS to React, Angular Models to Redux, and global CSS to modular Stylus. I also improved the performance of UI updates by making sure that only the relevant components were updated.

Software Engineering Manager

2010 - 2016
Ampsoft Informática
  • Led a team of six: one designer, one documentation specialist, one database administrator, two full-stack engineers, and one intern. We owned database administration, source control, deployments, and engineering processes in general.
  • Fixed and improved the performance of many of the 100+ batch processes. There was an eight-hour window they should run, but they took 12-14 hours when I joined. I reduced them to 4-5 hours and was designated to keep them under control.
  • Maintained an extensive ERP database in SQL Server 2012, tuning its 2,000+ stored procedures and creating indexes, repartitions, and more, scaling it up to thousands of users.
  • Created an internal app for improving the communication between internal and external teams using Knockout.js and Durandal. With this tool, people could automatically generate database migrations, create tasks for other teams, and more.
  • Built an internal app with React, Redux, and React Router to manage internal dependencies and the review process of merging a client project branch into the ERP master branch.

Megamac

https://www.megamac.com
I entirely developed the new version of the Megamac website. It's a headless Shopify, originally written in Gatsby and later ported to Remix.

The state management was written with Zustand and the styles with Stitches. It is focused on performance and a high Google PageSpeed score. The project was developed with a mobile-first approach, and its UX is great for any device.

The Growth Clinic

https://www.thegrowthclinic.co.uk
Wrote the website in React, Remix, and Twind (a CSS-in-JS alternative to Tailwind CSS), using the faster front CMS as the back end, and deployed it to Fly.io. All pages reach a 98+ page speed score due to the heavily optimized front end.

Close Blog

New Close blog that I developed with React (Remix) and Tailwind CSS, reading from a Ghost back end. The general approach was to ruthlessly prioritize content and lazy load everything else, getting a 98+ Google PageSpeed score on mobile and 100 on the desktop on all pages.

ValidaDoc

https://app.validadoc.com.br/
ValidaDoc is the product of a Brazilian startup that creates a digital version of printed documents and uses blockchain to ensure the record of a specific version of a created paper document.

In Brazil, people commonly get live-signed documents from doctors and then change something to bypass some laws and regulations (e.g., physical fitness to start a new job). Doctors are frequently law-suited when the organization figures out that the person cannot perform the work (due to physical constraints, as in the example). At that point, it's hard for doctors to prove that the document sent by the person was defrauded and that the original version is different.

ValidaDoc offers a service that helps doctors and other professionals store the original version of every document they sign.

I was one of the co-founders of ValidaDoc and owned the entire app development: I created the design system and built the components and all the product features with React, React Router, react-konva, and Apollo GraphQL.
