Summary
Luca Cantini is a senior software engineer based in Rio de Janeiro with 13 years of experience specializing in modern JavaScript ecosystems—React, Redux, TypeScript, Node.js and design systems. He's known for rescuing and modernizing legacy front-ends, having led large refactors from Knockout to React and built an internal design system at Carta as the first front-end specialist on the team. Comfortable across tooling and CI, he also authors internal libraries for testing, documentation and micro front-ends, blending pragmatic engineering with developer experience. His background spans fintech and insurance products where he helped establish reusable component systems and abstraction layers for messy backends. An Italo-Brazilian who loves open source and has a quiet preference for TypeScript, he brings both hands-on coding and systems-level ownership to front-end platform work.
