Lisbon, Portugal
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoão Chapa is a Technical Lead based in Lisbon with nine years' experience designing and maintaining Node.js/React microservice stacks for SaaS products. He has a track record of bootstrapping and growing complex apps—most recently leading the team behind Duplicate Check for Microsoft Dynamics 365 while still contributing as a hands-on full‑stack developer. João combines front-end expertise (Vue/React) with deep knowledge of Dataverse/Dynamics customization and data models, plus practical DevOps experience on AWS and Terraform. His background includes high-throughput systems, blockchain-related NFT platforms on Algorand, and JavaScript code transformation/obfuscation work, showing a blend of performance, security and product-minded engineering. Colleagues rely on him to turn ambiguous requirements into maintainable, twelve‑factor-style developer experiences in domains that don’t usually follow those practices. He’s pragmatic and code-first—“I write code, John.”—while also steering technical direction and delivery.
