Ricardo Nunes is a backend-focused software engineer and architect from Lisbon with nearly two decades of web development experience and nine years in senior roles, currently contributing at Mindera and Aubay Portugal while running his web studio CodeTailor. He specializes in Node.js and React, designing high-performance, scalable AWS architectures and APIs—most notably delivering systems for a major European retailer that handle millions of personalized requests reliably. Ricardo combines hands-on implementation with leadership: he has founded startups, led engineering teams, defined architectures, and mentored peers while owning project estimations and client relationships. A visual thinker and pragmatic problem-solver, he repeatedly optimizes performance (e.g., cutting a 24-hour import to under five minutes) and favors practical, reusable processes that accelerate delivery.
