Summary
Isabela Dos Santos is a backend engineer with 8 years of experience building high‑throughput, data‑intensive systems across fintech and consumer platforms. Based in Berlin, she has driven migrations from monoliths to Go microservices, cut API latencies by over 70%, and now works on Content Authorization at SoundCloud handling large-scale traffic with Scala, Kafka, and BigQuery.
