Vinicius Magalhães is a Staff Fullstack Engineer with 12+ years building scalable, product-focused systems and leading engineering teams from Vancouver. He has repeatedly transformed monolithic architectures into modular, cloud-native platforms—most recently architecting Thinkific’s App Platform and App Store and driving LLM-powered features that doubled activation for a creator storefront. Comfortable across the full stack, Vinicius blends backend systems work (Go, serverless, AWS, DynamoDB, SQS/SNS) with frontend modernization (React) and search at scale (ElasticSearch). He pairs hands-on delivery with mentorship, having grown engineers into staff and principal roles and led cross-team innovation programs. A practical problem-solver with a research-minded start—early work on radio-based guard tracking and data structuring for social research—he brings both technical breadth and product intuition to high-impact engineering initiatives.
