Summary
Marcelo Avancini is a Staff Software Engineer with 12+ years building and leading platform-focused engineering teams that modernize monoliths into cloud-native, event-driven architectures. He combines hands-on coding in Java, Python and JavaScript with deep platform design—Kafka, RabbitMQ, Kubernetes (EKS/ECS), AWS services and Terraform—to deliver scalable internal platforms that improve developer experience and accelerate onboarding. At Philips he led cross-regional shifts to modular, message-driven platforms and cut customer onboarding from a week to hours; he now applies that expertise at PicPay. A former startup co-founder, he pairs product-minded pragmatism with strong governance, observability and security awareness (postgrad in Red Team operations), which helps him align architecture with business outcomes.
