Rodrigo Santana is a Tech Manager and seasoned engineering leader with roughly a decade of experience building high-performance teams and developer platforms in Brazil. He has led cross-functional squads at Blip and Inter, creating DevEx programs, developer portals and internal platforms that measurably reduced incidents and shortened feedback loops. Rodrigo blends hands-on technical judgment (architecture, CI/CD quality gates, migrations and AI product launches) with data-driven engineering management using DORA and Flow metrics to prioritize work and lower change-failure rates. His background spans complex, integrated systems in insurance and real estate, where he delivered mission-critical emitters and ERP integrations. Trained in project management (FGV MBA) and software architecture, he pairs people development and career coaching with a practical focus on autonomy and scalable developer experience. Based in Minas Gerais, he’s known for turning developer empathy into operational leverage—improving both team satisfaction and time-to-market.
