Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSamuel Timbó is a CEO and software engineer with 11 years of experience building developer-facing systems and web platforms from São Paulo. He leads UNIT IO, an open-source effort to create a generalist visual programming language and web environment that blends functional, dataflow, reactive and OOP paradigms, while drawing on hands-on full‑stack work (UI tweaks, layout/transform math, and control-flow debugging) from his unit repo. Previously he contributed to large-scale products at Microsoft (Azure Boards) and to performance and orchestration features for VTEX’s React-based Render framework, plus backend API work at Pagar.me. Comfortable spanning research, product and implementation, he combines academic training from ITA and UIUC with a founder’s appetite for rethinking how people program. An interesting thread across his career is a consistent focus on developer experience—optimizing tooling, observability and interactive interfaces to make complex systems approachable.
