Summary
João Moura is a senior software engineer and engineering leader based in Florianópolis with nearly two decades in software and 7+ years specializing in Elixir and Phoenix LiveView. He has led teams and delivered large UI revamps and migrations—most recently transitioning frontends from EmberJS to LiveView and driving a CQRS-based Elixir backend through complex data migrations.
