Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMichel Costa is a Staff Software Engineer based in Calgary with 10 years of hands-on experience building web and mobile products across frontend, backend and CMS platforms. He specializes in modern JavaScript frameworks (React, Angular, Vue) and Node.js backends while also bringing practical experience with Python, PHP and relational and NoSQL databases. Michel has progressed from developer to technology manager and principal roles at SkipTheDishes and now leads platform work at lululemon, blending hands-on coding with architectural leadership. He pairs a designer’s eye—holding a degree in Digital Design and strong mockup/UX skills—with deep ops knowledge in Apache/Nginx server setup and deployment. Unusually for an engineer, he maintains a hobbyist practice in video production and VFX, which informs his attention to detail in UI and content-rich experiences. Colleagues rely on him to turn complex CMS and cross-platform requirements into polished, user-focused solutions.
