João Ferreira is a pragmatic senior engineering manager with 9 years of experience leading high-impact teams across event tech, travel IT and identity security. He currently guides engineering at VEED.IO after scaling video and engagement features at Hopin that served millions and improved core metrics through both product and large-scale engineering migrations. His background spans mission-critical airline systems at Amadeus—where he led global teams through COVID-driven disruption—and early biometrics R&D that produced a patented prototype later commercialized and acquired. A hands-on leader, he combines strong delivery discipline, incident management and hiring/mentoring with a taste for autonomy and curiosity. Based in Nice and fluent in cross-border team dynamics, he balances technical depth (C++, Python, webRTC/React stacks) with a flair for product moments that "make someone's day a little brighter."
