Summary
👤
SeniorRafael Thayto is a full‑stack software engineer with 9 years of experience building scalable, high-performance systems for startups and enterprise clients across Brazil, the US and Switzerland. He has led technical teams and shipped production microservices and microfrontends for companies with millions of users, including Nike, Flash, Creditas and several banks, blending backend expertise (Node.js, Fastify, Nest.js, Kafka) with modern frontend stacks (React, React Native, Next.js). Rafael frequently drives platform improvements—CI/CD migrations, observability dashboards, and performance optimizations—that reduce cost and accelerate delivery. As a founding engineer at a YC startup and contributor to product architecture at Avanade and Creditas, he’s comfortable taking projects from concept to production while mentoring peers. He combines pragmatic engineering with a penchant for developer experience: creating design systems, libraries for external integrations, and tooling to simplify complex flows. Based in São Paulo, he brings a track record of measurable impact (faster invoice issuance, unified platforms, improved load times) and a curiosity for distributed systems and developer-centered infrastructure.
