I'm João Melo, a Front-End Engineer (with a solid Full-Stack foundation) passionate about building high-performance web interfaces and scalable architectures. I am Brazilian, but my journey has already taken me to live in Portugal 🇵🇹, the USA 🇺🇸, and Ireland 🇮🇪, which has given me a global perspective on products, cultures, and technology.

Recently, I have developed robust solutions for global flagship brands (such as L'Oréal Paris and Sanofi, at Valtech) and built complex AdTech platforms (Innovid). My focus is to deliver modern applications that combine excellent UI/UX with clean, well-tested, and optimized code, always adhering to the best practices of Software Development and Frontend engineering.

• 💻 Main Stacks & Specialties: Front-End (React.js, Next.js, TypeScript, JavaScript, Tailwind CSS), Back-End (Node.js, Express, Prisma ORM, PostgreSQL, MongoDB) and Testing (Playwright, Jest).
• 📚 Background: Bachelor's in Business Administration. I don't just write code; I understand the business rules and the product's impact.

• ✈️ I love traveling, meeting new people, and understanding how technology can generate a positive impact on their lives anywhere in the world.
