Hey, I'm João and this is my story

I'm a brazilian Product Designer and Frontend Developer, you could call me a Design Engineer!

I started messing around with tech when i was only 10, my dad is a tech guy, so he always incentivized me to get into his world.

My first coding experiences were building Minecraft mods and server plugins because of course as a kid (and as an adult as well lol) Minecraft was my jam!

When i reached 13, i started playing Counter-Strike semi-professionally in some small leagues in Brazil, had a bunch of teams, training hours were like 12-14 hours a day!

This is was a crazy period, but those 3 years really molded my competitiveness, team play and communication, i miss it so much, even appeared on a FalleN video!

At 15 i started my first Frontend Developer role in Opens Tecnologia where i stayed for the next 5 years. After 2 years at Opens, the need for a designer was latent, so i developed myself to fill that hat as well!

I fell in love with design and creating nice experiences, so for the next 4 years i would completely focus my learning towards that, and it gave me many results. Got a second job at a company called Deconve, where i helped them migrate a desktop app to Vue.js and redesign it completely.

The years passed and i was kinda happy with my job in Opens but i fell in love, and my beautiful fiance had a lot of dreams, like traveling to Europe, moving to another country, etc.

But i couldn't even dream about affording that at the time.

Thats when i started freelancing on X, got to meet so many cool people and amazing professionals who elevated my design, development and business knowledge to a whole new level!

After some months in freelancing, i had so many leads coming in for design and Framer development so i created an agency, Formlyfe! That was when my life changed.

I started making money that i never dreamed of making and fortunately was able to accomplish a lot of my and my fiance's dreams, buy a house, a car and well, a very happy life!

One thing about freelancing is that you never actually create very meaningful things or very meaningful relationships, they happen, but they are rare.

The workload is flexible, but soulless.

So that brings us to today, July 2025. Where i'm looking for some place where i can create meaningful experiences, in products, platforms, places that i enjoy and am a part of!

If you are reading this you are probably part of a company i really enjoy and applied for a job because i want to create something nice, something meaningful with you!

For all of that, i must say, I really appreciate you reading all of this, thanks for caring enough to go till the end!
