Leonardo Ferreira is a senior backend engineer and former CTO with 10+ years building integrations, APIs and scalable SaaS platforms across Node.js, TypeScript, MERN and ClickHouse.

Comfortable both as an individual contributor and engineering manager, he blends hands-on systems design with delivery leadership, cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Terraform) and serverless architectures. His stack fluency spans JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Java and mobile tech, and he’s contributed to internal frameworks like Frigg to accelerate integrations work. Based in Minas Gerais, Brazil, he’s recently deepening AI expertise through postgraduate study while maintaining a pragmatic focus on shipping reliable, business-facing systems.
