He combines Computer Science and Business Administration training from USP to align technical choices with measurable business outcomes, having delivered features that increased CTR by ~13-15% and conversion by ~15-25%. Gustavo has led impactful infrastructure work—migrating services to AWS Graviton to cut compute costs ~60%, lowering cache spend, and executing zero-downtime database upgrades—while championing Node.js modernization, PostgreSQL partitioning, and DevOps best practices.
