Gustavo Moreira
I am passionate about problem solving and continuous learning. Prior to starting Makers Academy, I spent countless hours after work and on the weekends building fundamental skills by creating mini projects to ensure I was prepared to make the most out of the program. During the final group project, I was tasked with building the back-end of the application which included over 40 Rest API calls. Since completing Makers I continued working on the final project to deploy it to the web, and carried on with personal projects such as building an e-commerce website. I am eager to apply my technical expertise, alongside my proven problem-solving capabilities and continuous learning mindset, to make a positive impact at tachograph hardware & software. My unique blend of skills and experiences positions me as a valuable asset to the team, where I am confident in driving success and fostering innovation in future projects.

Professional Experience
Makers Academy
October 2023 – March 2024
London, England, United Kingdom
- Completed a 16-week intense full time program with emphasis on Object Oriented Programming (OOP), Test Driven Development (TDD), pair programming and Agile methodologies. Multiple web applications were built in team settings with a variety of different programming languages.
- Technical Skills: Demonstrated my understanding a multiple tech languages, such as Python/Javascript/Swift utilising libraries such as Flask/Django/React, and MongoDB and Postgres to build databases, by applying these technologies to various projects within the course of the bootcamp. In my final project we prioritised backend testing and used PyTest and CICD Github actions to ensure full code coverage which made deploying the application to the web easier than expected.
- Problem Solving: Took the initiative to implement live chat functionality to my final project, BLOOM, using Socket.IO. I was able to successfully create a function that detects ongoing conversations between users to append new messages or initiate new chats, and implemented an auto-expiration feature where messages are automatically deleted after 30 days. As a result, I improved the user experience by allowing users to see chat history.
- Communication: Successfully showcased my communication skills by working closely with a variety of different people in multiple team settings and was able to collaborate in person and online using tools such as Trello, Excalidraw and Slack which contributed to projects and tasks being well understood and completed on time.
