Summary
Luiza De Souza is a Staff Software Engineer with 12 years’ experience delivering backend-first solutions for large US enterprises while working across distributed, multicultural teams in the Americas and Asia. She has moved fluidly between mobile, full-stack and backend roles—shipping native Android and Swift apps early in her career and more recently designing resilient Java microservices on AWS, Kubernetes and event-driven platforms. At ThoughtWorks she led technical teams, shaped SRE practices, and even stepped in as interim portfolio technology director to align delivery with strategic business goals. Comfortable in consultancy settings, she combines hands-on coding with team enablement and cross-team coordination for complex, multi-squad programs. Based in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, she brings a pragmatic focus on testable, maintainable systems and a track record of integrating third-party platforms to enable international expansion.
