Luiz Oliveira is a Senior Software Engineer with 15 years building full-stack web and mobile solutions from Pernambuco, Brazil, and currently contributing at Automattic. He blends front-end craftsmanship (React, UI/UX libraries) with back-end experience across Node.js, Ruby on Rails, Laravel and PHP, having led teams and shipped reusable component libraries like Follett’s common-ui. A former CTO and co-founder, he’s comfortable moving between hands‑on implementation and technical leadership, having created open-source projects such as Spice.JS and a Trello time‑travel tool (T3) to improve retrospectives. Luiz is an attentive open-source contributor—his updates to the widely referenced "js-the-right-way" reflect both framework knowledge and attention to detail—while holding an MCA focused on mobile technologies.
