What I'm looking for

I am looking for a job that offers a challenging and dynamic environment, where I can utilize my skills in frontend development, design, and project management. I am interested in companies that value innovation, collaboration, and personal growth opportunities.

Hello, oi, bonjour. I am Kevin, frontend developer turned engineering manager. I graduated in computer science, graphic design and web design in Paris and currently live and work in Rio de Janeiro.

I have experience in small and large companies such as Huge Inc (digital agency), VTEX (eCommerce) and Mercado Livre (eCommerce & fintech) where I worked on the Mercado Pago app to improve the financial life of millions of users in LATAM.

I have experience in managing engineering teams, handling projects, and ensuring cross-team objectives are met. I am fluent in French, English, Portuguese, and get around in Spanish, which allows me to communicate effectively with people from different regions. I still write codeIon small projects listed on my personal website.
