Alvaro Soares is a data-focused engineering leader with nine years of experience building and scaling a cloud-based SaaS ERP at Bling, progressing from software developer and tech lead to Coordenador de Dados. He combines hands-on backend experience (PHP, MySQL, Redis, APIs) with advanced product and marketing analytics, defining core SaaS metrics like MRR, churn, LTV and running cohort and segmentation analyses. Comfortable across Python, SQL/Impala, Mixpanel, Metabase and Google Analytics, he translates complex datasets into actionable visualizations that guide product and growth decisions. As a former tech lead he retains strong engineering instincts—code review, hiring and mentoring—so his data work is grounded in delivery and operational realities. He holds specialist training in big data/data science and an IT degree from UCS, and has spent years instrumenting analytics for user journeys and marketing funnels. Notably, his career arc shows a rare blend of legacy PHP systems knowledge and modern product analytics fluency, making him effective at bridging engineering and business teams.
