Raphael Alves

Senior Fullstack Engineer — Node.js, React, TypeScript & AWS

I've been building full-stack software for 8+ years — from multi-tenant systems for medical shift scheduling to white-label e-commerce platforms used by banks and retailers. Currently at CI&T, architecting cloud systems for agribusiness.

GET /about

Who writes the code

Fullstack developer with 8+ years of experience in backend (Node.js, Laravel, WordPress) and frontend (React), always with AWS as cloud provider. I've worked across e-commerce, healthcare, and risk insurance — solving, at heart, the same kind of problem: systems that need to scale without losing reliability.

I have a track record with multi-tenant systems, custom plugins, and white-label e-commerce platforms. I care about clean code and best practices, and I especially enjoy leading migration and legacy modernization initiatives.
