Victor Pantoja is a seasoned Staff Product Engineer based in Vienna with 15 years of experience building and scaling full‑stack systems across startups and high‑traffic products. He combines hands‑on backend expertise in Python, Django and cloud infrastructure (GKE, ArgoCD, GitHub Actions) with frontend work in React to turn PoCs into production-grade features and customer wins. At Otera he helped grow engineering from 2 to 19 people and now focuses on closing the gap between engineering and product to accelerate delivery without sacrificing stability. Earlier roles at Globo.com and Grape show a track record of improving test culture and modernization (doubling test coverage and leading multi-version upgrades), plus hands‑on DevOps and payment integration experience. He holds an MSc in Computing and is comfortable leading technical strategy while still shipping code day-to-day. An understated strength is his ability to translate CEO-level product vision into repeatable engineering processes that scale.
