Summary
Felipe Pina is a Senior Software Engineer and mathematician based in Rio de Janeiro with two decades of software experience and a deep focus on Java back-end systems, especially in financial and scheduling domains. He has driven architecture and delivery at companies from fintech startups to large media deployments, breaking monoliths into Kubernetes-ready microservices and building fault-tolerant Kafka pipelines. Comfortable across low-level embedded work (custom Linux USB OS and agents) to high-scale distributed services, he blends rigorous mathematical training (MSc and PhD work in mathematics) with pragmatic engineering. At CommonBond and other roles he led OAuth/OpenID integrations, event-driven designs, and loan-origination flows that required both domain sensitivity and production reliability. Currently at OUTFRONT Media and Toptal, he focuses on resilient scheduling and high-quality Java design while mentoring teams on maintainable, testable systems. A less obvious strength is his track record of shipping specialized trading and securitization simulators, showing an ability to translate complex quantitative models into production software.
