Summary
Guilherme Mendes is a Software & DevOps Engineer with 5 years of hands-on experience building cloud-native, event-driven back-end systems for fintech and travel markets. He has led migrations from monolith VMs to scalable microservices architectures using Go, Java, Spring, Kafka and dedicated DBs, and routinely implements observability, CI/CD and infrastructure-as-code across AWS, GCP and OpenShift. At Gain he designed secure multi-tenant CRM integrations and RLS-driven data flows; previously he scaled cashback and open-banking pipelines to serve 60k users and delivered dynamic pricing engines for Brazil’s largest tourism company. Guilherme combines a product-minded business background and prior product ownership with strong engineering discipline—clean architecture, automated testing and mentoring on Kafka and best practices. Currently based in Amsterdam and pursuing an MSc in Computer Science, he pairs practical production experience with continuous learning and a succinct, results-oriented approach to reliability and data privacy. An understated detail: he blends backend systems work with hands-on DevOps so he owns both feature delivery and the operational stability that keeps them running.
