Rodrigo Machado is an experienced engineering leader with 16 years building scalable web platforms and APIs across Python, PHP, MySQL, MongoDB and modern cloud infrastructure. He progressed from hands-on web developer and tech lead in Brazil’s large media properties to leading engineering teams at Loadsmart—where he shipped real-time freight pricing APIs, TMS integrations and serverless connectors—and now manages engineering at Uber. Rodrigo combines product-minded technical decisions (infrastructure, deployment and automation) with a track record of turning legacy stacks into maintainable, high-performance services. Curious and pragmatic, he often bridges backend data models and operational concerns, having even applied MongoDB geo capabilities and built internal frameworks early in his career. Based in Rio de Janeiro, he excels at scaling teams and systems while mentoring engineers to take on leadership roles.
