Hi, I'm Danilo!
I work at the intersection of design, technology and business, the place where all three need to work together to build something that lasts. 17 years shaping digital products that reached tens of millions of people and transformed entire operations.
I have a background in Systems Analysis and Development and 17 years of practice in digital product. That combination lets me work at the intersection of design, technology and business strategy: setting direction, building teams and connecting design decisions to outcomes that show up in OKRs.
Over those years, I've worked across fintech, telecom, healthcare and retail at scale. I've designed conversational channels that reached 24 million people and contributed to ESG initiatives that trained thousands of women.
I've been working with AI applied to product since 2017, when AI systems that recognize emotions and human behavior were still niche research. Today I collaborate with design teams, connect product strategy with execution and use data to navigate hard decisions. The attention to detail I apply to a component is the same I use to define a 12-month vision.
