About David

Senior Frontend Engineer with over 7 years of experience in developing complex React and TypeScript applications. Currently, I lead the frontend development of GSPT (Global Supply Planning Tool) at PepsiCo — a React/TypeScript application used across multiple global markets for supply chain optimization.

I am a native German speaker, EU citizen, and based in Rio de Janeiro. My work style is independent, structured, and focused on close collaboration with distributed teams. I bring in-depth experience in scalable UI architecture, design system implementation, REST API integration, and CI/CD pipelines.

Available for remote projects with German and European companies.
