Month: November 2015

I am a Software Developer at Take The Wind (TTW) since June 2014 and have been involved in several full stack projects since 2011.

I have a Masters degree in Electrical Engineering and Computers (University of Coimbra) and a special interest for designing and developing software architectures and solutions.

I consider the Give&Take project a very nobel and interesting concept, since it promotes amongst people and communities the sharing spirit. People can interact by sharing knowledge and experiences, help other community members to accomplish tasks, or even ask for help with tasks that would be difficult to accomplish on their own.

My role in the Give&Take project is to be part of the software team that specifies and develops the Give & Take frontend and backend platforms, which will be used by the community users and the platform administrators.

I’m Take The Wind’s Chief Operations Officer.My early background is Psychology and Social Work, but my professional challenges have brought me to Project and Team Management.

In the Give & Take Project,  I’m responsible for Resources allocation, Releases definition and also sprints planning together with Rodrigo.

Give & Take has been a great challenge as it involves a multidisciplinary team, with different views and conceptions, but everyone focusing on the same goal: to promote better ageing and quality interaction for the elderly. It also makes me remind the time I used to run a Day Care Centre and was able to better understand old ladies and gentlemen.
