Paulo Gomes is an engineering consultant and fractional leader with 11+ years building large-scale fintech and platform systems, most recently driving credit and lending globalization at Nubank for 100M+ customers across multiple countries. He combines a technical core in Java and Clojure with hands-on architecture work for distributed, event-driven financial systems and a proven ability to reduce time-to-market through unified frameworks. As a manager he’s led 50+ engineers across geographies, hiring strategically and using AI deliberately as a force multiplier to scale delivery without proportionally increasing headcount. His domain expertise spans credit, lending, compliance-first engineering, and regulatory implementations (including Mexican central bank requirements). Paulo also brings e-commerce and M&A technology experience from CTO roles that migrated services to serverless AWS architectures and modern data warehouses. Based in Poznan, he pairs deep individual contribution with strategic leadership, often embedding in teams to turn complex regulatory and product goals into measurable business outcomes.
