Higor Chaves is a versatile full-stack software engineer with a decade of professional experience and a bachelor's in Information Systems, currently contributing at Codurance from Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. He has a proven track record building and optimizing production services across startups and scale-ups, from billing systems in TypeScript/NestJS and Go/Kubernetes to realtime features using Twilio, Socket.io, Python and JS. Higor consistently improves engineering velocity—examples include cutting backend test times ~40% with pytest-xdist and halving frontend pipeline time with Cypress optimizations—while shipping custom React components and Streamlit integrations. Comfortable across cloud-native tooling (AWS, Terraform, Prometheus, Grafana) and multiple languages, he blends pragmatic engineering with automation to reduce operational friction. Curious and collaborative, he also invests in peer growth (“improving myself and taking whoever I can in this process”) and pairs hands-on coding with platform-level thinking.
