About me
Hi, I'm Ricardo, a software engineer with a strong passion for design. I love building things and designing them. I find it fascinating to turn simple ideas into functional products that also feel premium.
In my free time, I enjoy a good movie and black coffee. I love going for walks, listening to music, and lately I've been getting back into exploring hills and natural places.
I love building new projects simply for the joy of learning something new, and sometimes to solve a problem that could help someone I know.

I was part of the Optimization team, creating end-to-end experiences from design to implementation, including A/B experiments.
