Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolHenrique Oelze is a Staff Software Engineer with 10 years of experience building scalable backend systems for games and fintech, currently leading platform and backend efforts at Scopely from Barcelona. He blends hands-on Golang microservices, Kubernetes/IaC, and real-time game-server expertise (notably contributing to the Pitaya game server framework) with product ownership—designing wallets, matchmaking, purchase pipelines and live-ops telemetry. Former engineering manager and tech lead at Wildlife and Nubank, he pairs people coaching and roadmap ownership with deep technical execution across Redis, Postgres, Kafka, and cloud infra. A lifelong learner and AI/ML enthusiast with formal study in Data Science and Game Design, he often brings ML+user thinking to platform problems. Less obvious: he moves comfortably between legacy enterprise integrations and cutting-edge game backends, making him effective at bridging operational rigor with rapid iteration.
