Lucas Soares is a Principal Engineer and shareholder with 11 years of experience building scalable AI-driven SaaS platforms and leading cross-functional engineering teams.

Lucas has a track record of improving developer productivity and reliability—creating an internal CLI that cut onboarding time by ~60% and implementing observability and CI/CD practices that halved MTTR. He combines deep operational expertise in large-scale data pipelines and NoSQL architectures with product-focused leadership that lifted NPS by over 30 points for enterprise social care solutions. Based in Minas Gerais, Brazil, he blends hands-on engineering, database governance, and strategic architecture to align teams around secure, scalable AI products.
