Summary
Rafael Silva is a Staff Software Engineer and architect based in São Paulo with over a decade of experience building TypeScript/React frontends, Python backends, and Kubernetes-powered deployments for fintech, cybersecurity, and enterprise platforms. He’s led teams and driven architectural decisions across the full stack—shifting monoliths to micro-frontends, implementing GitOps CI/CD, and embedding security and compliance (including BACEN and LGPD) into product delivery. Rafael has a track record of shipping scalable back-office systems, design systems, and orchestration workflows (Camunda BPMN) while improving code quality through testing, static analysis, and runtime observability. Pragmatic and product-minded, he combines early-stage scaling experience with enterprise rigor, having influenced growth strategies, cloud migrations, and developer workflows at multiple startups. A self-described “TypeScript Paladin,” he pairs hands-on engineering with team leadership to turn complex regulatory and performance requirements into reliable, auditable systems.
