Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolVinícius Souza is a Senior Software Engineer with 15+ years of hands-on experience and a strong academic foundation (MS in Computer Science, BS in Computer Engineering) who has shaped scalable systems across industries from aerospace and public sector to high-growth startups and big tech. He blends deep expertise in distributed systems, software architecture and performance optimization with practical leadership as a tech lead—mentoring teams, defining SLOs and owning full lifecycle delivery in polyglot stacks (Go, Java/Kotlin, Python, Ruby/Elixir, JS). His recent work spans mission-critical platforms at Uber and Twilio—improving checkout and verification systems, building microservices in Go, and operating distributed teams across timezones. Comfortable moving teams from monoliths to cloud-native microservices, he pairs rigorous algorithmic thinking and clean-code discipline with pragmatic choices around data stores, integration (gRPC/Protobuf, Kafka), and observability. A lifelong coder since age 14, he treats engineering as both vocation and hobby, often bridging research (failure diagnosis in microservices) with production-grade implementations. Based in Brazil, he brings rare cross-domain experience and a track record of shipping reliable, high-performance systems at scale.
