Summary
Duarte Pompeu is a software engineer with 11 years of experience who blends strong engineering practices, clean code, and pragmatic delivery to build reliable products. He has led a small team from zero to MVP, optimized data pipelines for 3x performance improvements, and designed a distributed RabbitMQ algorithm that preserves group ordering while enabling parallel consumption. Comfortable at the intersection of engineering and communication, he regularly gives tech talks and creates diagrams to align developers, managers and stakeholders. Duarte has shipped production systems with international reach and contributed to hiring and guild-level knowledge sharing at xgeeks. Based in Leiria, Portugal, he pairs a Master’s in Computer Science from Instituto Superior Técnico with a bias for testability and maintainability that prevents short-term product pressures from degrading long-term tech quality.
