Summary
Vinicius Gabriel is a backend software engineer and startup founder with roughly nine years of experience building high-performance, cloud-native systems primarily in Go. As Co-Founder & CEO of HumanTrack and a former engineering lead at companies like Firstbase and DB1, he specializes in microservices, gRPC/REST, message-driven architectures, and telemetry across Docker, Kubernetes and major cloud providers. He has led teams through architecture definition, CI/CD adoption, and production deployments for banking and brokerage domains, bringing end-to-end ownership from design to release. Currently expanding into Rust, he blends practical performance tuning with a strong interest in cybersecurity and privacy—topics he studies extensively outside work. Based in Paraná, Brazil, Vinicius pairs hands-on engineering with leadership and a pragmatic, "get-it-done" ethos hinted at by his self-deprecating GitHub bio as a "go horse software engineer."
