Francisco Trindade
@franciscotrindade
Software Engineer (7+ years) specializing in frontend-heavy full-stack work, migrations, and AI-driven product features.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer with 7 years of experience across Angular, Node.js/NestJS, and Laravel/Vue, consistently onboarding onto new ecosystems and delivering production-ready features. I’m frontend-heavy, but I enjoy owning the full product surface—from UI to APIs and data flows.
In my most recent role, I developed features across multiple Angular applications, built a mobile-first PWA, and created intra-company admin tooling with Angular and Tailwind CSS. I also raised quality by implementing end-to-end test coverage with Playwright for critical user journeys.
A defining strength for me is leading technical migrations. I’ve owned a full Angular → Laravel + Vue migration as a greenfield tech decision, delivering a major improvement in Core Web Vitals, and I’ve autonomously migrated static content to Directus CMS so the content team can move faster without engineering bottlenecks.
I also build AI-driven experiences in the product. For example, I engineered an AI-driven chatbot using the Laravel AI SDK to optimize lead capture and engagement, and I back it with hands-on learning through certifications in ML, Recommender Systems, and Prompt Engineering.
