Alexis SgarbossaEngineering manager
Currently building at Cashea

Good systems.
Great teams.

I’m Alexis, an engineering manager working across infrastructure, data platforms, and developer productivity. I build the foundations and lead the teams that help other teams move forward.

A little about my work
18+ years of building & leadingSão Paulo, Brazil
A wider view, one step at a time.

Evolution of a builder.

Original tools. Growing scope.

More people able to build.

Leading teams with shared context, clear ownership, and room to do good work. Still at the workbench, with a wider view.

Select a chapter to explore.

The work changes.
The throughline stays.

From designing what people use to building what it runs on. I connect the technical decisions with the people making them.

Outside the day job, I make tools for things
I keep coming back to: systems, clarity, and a little fun.

How I work

Strong foundations.
Shared ownership.
Better questions.

Good engineering leadership means giving people context, making the tradeoffs clear, and knowing when to get out of the way.

I’ve worked across design, product, and engineering. That path shapes how I lead: close to the details, curious about the business, and invested in the people doing the work.
