Summary
Thalita Gomes is a Senior Software Engineering Manager with 13 years of experience leading agile teams and building cloud-native microservices, currently shaping engineering at iFood. She combines hands-on technical expertise in Java/Kotlin, distributed systems (Kafka, SNS/SQS), and container orchestration with strong people management skills—hiring, career development, feedback and compensation. Her background includes technical leadership at ThoughtWorks and a history of modernizing legacy systems using DDD, clean architecture and TDD. Trained in Information Systems with an MBA in Software Project Management, she keeps a keen eye on emerging tech while deliberately developing both technical and interpersonal capabilities. An atypical detail: her self-deprecating Github bio hints at a playful, humble mindset that balances rigorous engineering with human-centered leadership.
