Paulo Sousa is a software engineer with eight years of experience building scalable web back-ends and full-stack products, currently at Google after recent work at Incognia. He combines strong academic roots—Summa Cum Laude in Computer Engineering and medals in national math and physics olympiads—with competitive-programming pedigree as an ICPC World Finals participant and thousands of solved algorithmic problems. Paulo brings practical experience across Ruby on Rails, GraphQL, JavaScript, Java, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Docker and Kubernetes, and has led architecture redesigns, CI/test pipelines and Shopify app development. As a former tech lead and coach, he balances hands-on coding with mentoring and process improvement, and his early co-founded mobile studio shows an entrepreneurial streak. Notably, his deep focus on algorithms and low-level C++ work informs pragmatic, performance-minded backend design rather than purely abstract system architecture.
