Jefferson De Souza is a Senior Software Engineer based in São Paulo with two decades of hands-on experience and a decade in senior roles building scalable, cloud-native systems. He specializes in full-stack Typescript and Node.js development, React/Next.js front ends, and AWS-first architectures including Kubernetes, EKS, serverless patterns and CD workflows like ArgoCD and CDK. Jefferson has led technical teams as a tech lead and architect, driving migrations (2500+ components to TypeScript), designing microservices, and orchestrating event-driven solutions with Kafka and other messaging systems. He brings strong operational discipline—CI/CD, testcontainers-based integration testing, Datadog monitoring—and a track record of improving team quality through training and rigorous code reviews. Comfortable across languages (Java, Ruby, Python, Clojure) and databases (Postgres/Aurora, DynamoDB, OpenSearch), he turns complex domain requirements—such as HL7-based EHR systems—into production-ready services. Known for blending hands-on coding with mentoring and documentation, he pairs practical engineering with business-aligned decision making.
