Gabriel Britto
@gabrielbritto
Backend-focused Full-Stack Engineer building scalable APIs and real-time systems with Node.js and Go.
What I'm looking for
I’m a backend-focused Full-Stack Engineer with strong Node.js experience and growing expertise in Go. I build scalable APIs, real-time systems, and high-performance services, with a performance optimization mindset and a system design focus.
At Amigo Tech, I’ve led 4 junior developers through mentorship, code reviews, and planning as a Full-Stack Engineer (Mid-Level / Tech Lead). I built a real-time platform (WhatsApp API, WebSockets) serving thousands, and I designed a high-volume messaging system using batch + concurrency. I also migrated a Node→Go pipeline (60s → 5s) and owned related APIs, background jobs, CI/CD, Docker, and AWS.
Previously at JAZZZ Digital Agency, I built responsive web apps using HTML, CSS, JS, and WordPress, working with React while maintaining legacy systems. I enjoy combining clean front-end delivery with robust backend fundamentals—especially REST APIs, WebSockets, and reliable data handling with SQL and NoSQL databases.
