Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFausto Arias is a frontend engineer with 8 years of experience building scalable, maintainable web and game systems across startups and consultancies. Based in Gothenburg but originally from Ecuador, he blends React/Next.js and AWS serverless expertise with a deep background in C++ and Unreal/Godot game development. He has delivered production features and architecture as a consultant (Thoughtworks, ONCEDEV EC) and as an embedded engineer at companies like Kushki and WillDom while also shipping freelance e-commerce, fintech, and game projects. Fausto pairs technical delivery with product and leadership experience—he founded and led a local appointment-platform startup, raising capital and directing an engineering team. His cross-disciplinary training (MSc in Game Design & Technology, CS degrees, and an MBA) helps him translate complex product requirements into pragmatic technical solutions. Less obvious: he moves comfortably between low-level game systems and high-level cloud architectures, making him effective at bridging performance-focused code and scalable web platforms.
