Summary
Samuel Durante is a software engineer with seven years of practical experience and a three-year focus on building delightful web products using Node.js, React, TypeScript, Go, MongoDB, and PostgreSQL. He has driven end-to-end features and platform infrastructure—from shipping Visual Search integrations on Shopify and VTEX to designing GKE/Pulumi deployments and GitHub Actions CI/CD. At Woovi he led cross-team initiatives including payment gateway integrations, KYC document/face capture, accessibility improvements, and a dynamic OG image system that lifted CTR by 25%. He contributes to open-source projects around web apps, databases, and programming language theory, reflecting a habit of deep technical curiosity beyond day-to-day product work. Based in Paraná, Brazil, Samuel combines strong product empathy with hands-on systems design and operational experience in serverless and cloud-native environments. He’s equally comfortable mentoring teammates, troubleshooting production incidents, and prototyping language- and database-oriented tooling.
