ABOUT

Rafael Carozo

Full Stack Developer focused on building products that actually work and are fast, secure and ready to scale.

I mainly work with React/Next on the frontend and Go and Node.js on the backend, building everything from MVPs to complex systems for SaaS and e-commerce.

My differentiator is delivering technical excellence without overthinking: clean code, pragmatic decisions and focus on what generates real value for the business.

How I think

5 principles that guide my work

01

Pragmatic performance

I optimize where it makes real difference for the user and the business.

02

Simplicity > complexity

I prefer direct and maintainable solutions over over-engineered architectures.

03

Security by default

Authentication and data protection integrated from the first technical decisions.

04

Observability

Logs, metrics and alerts from the start. After all, you can't improve what you can't measure.

05

Iterative delivery

Tangible value every week. Fast feedback, fast adjustments, constant progress.
