Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaulo Gaia is a senior software engineer with 9+ years building scalable, secure backend systems across PHP and Node.js stacks, currently shaping architecture and delivery at Stay. He has hands-on experience migrating monoliths to microservices, designing event-driven integrations with Pub/Sub and API Gateways, and optimizing search and databases (Elasticsearch, MySQL/Postgres) for cost and performance. Comfortable across cloud environments (AWS/GCP), Docker and CI/CD, he repeatedly refactors legacy codebases to meet SOLID and Clean Code standards while keeping high test coverage. His background includes mission-critical projects for major clients like Ambev and Nestlé and domain-specific solutions in aviation at Flapper, showing an ability to translate complex business needs into reliable APIs and systems. Pragmatic and curious, Paulo treats every project as a learning opportunity and often contributes to front-end and DevOps decisions beyond pure backend work.
