Gabriel Givigier is a founder and software engineer with 11 years of experience building and leading product-focused engineering teams, primarily in Ruby and full-stack web applications. He founded ipanema.tech, where he mentors developers and champions code quality across Rails and React projects, and previously co-founded a high-volume marketplace API that generated hundreds of quotes daily for thousands of vendors. Gabriel has held senior and tech lead roles at startups tackling B2B sales, finance planning, and event management, blending hands-on implementation with architectural decision-making. He believes in using the right tool for each problem—Ruby is a favorite but not a constraint—and has delivered systems spanning Roda, Svelte, Inertia, and Redis-backed Postgres deployments. With a Computer Science degree and a Udacity nanodegree in Machine Learning, he pairs product intuition with a curiosity for data-driven solutions. Based in Minas Gerais, Brazil, he focuses on making impactful products that scale for large user bases.
