Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSamuel Silva is a Lead Software Engineer based in Porto with 10 years of hands-on experience building performant, scalable front-end architectures and progressive web apps using modern frameworks like React, Angular, Svelte and Next.js. He has driven product-quality across micro-frontend ecosystems and browser extensions, contributed to internal design systems and BFF layers, and currently leads engineering at Amplemarket while founding a side venture, Wish Together. Comfortable across the stack, Samuel pairs deep front-end craft—build tools, SSR, testing and performance optimization—with pragmatic DevOps and CI practices honed earlier in full-stack roles. He’s a builder who values repeatable delivery (“build, build and build again”) and mentorship, routinely sharing knowledge with teams and the community. His career shows a pattern of scaling products for enterprise customers (Carlsberg, kununu) and evolving platforms from monolith interfaces to micro-frontends. Notably, he combines an MBA in Software Engineering with a background in embedded full-stack systems, giving him both technical depth and product-minded leadership.
