About me

I'm Danilo Aleixo, a Tech Lead with over 10 years of experience leading cross-functional teams and building scalable, high-impact pricing platforms. With a strong foundation in Computer Science and more than a decade of coding experience, I thrive at the intersection of complex algorithmic logic and real-world business challenges.

At numa, I lead the development of pricing tools and systems that integrate advanced algorithms with robust cloud architecture — driving automation, precision, and performance at scale. My expertise spans full-stack development (Node.js, React), cloud-native applications (AWS, Kubernetes), and architectural design of distributed systems.

What I'm doing

  • Pricing Platforms & Algorithms

    Designing and shipping algorithm-driven pricing systems that turn complex business logic into automated, precise decisions at scale.

  • Full-Stack Development

    End-to-end product work across Node.js, TypeScript, React and Angular — from data model to the interface people actually use.

  • Cloud Architecture

    Scalable microservices on AWS and Kubernetes, built for the failure modes distributed systems actually hit in production.

  • Technical Leadership

    Mentoring engineers, growing ownership across teams, and keeping technical decisions aligned with what the product actually needs.
