Stack

Tools I work with

From design to deployment. I work across the full stack, from Figma wireframes to production-ready apps built with AI-assisted engineering.

AI-assisted engineering

How I build with AI

AI doesn't replace the process, it compresses it: cycles that go from idea to production in days, not months. Every product on this site went through the same discipline:

12products live in production
40+automated E2E checks guarding business rules
100%built on token-based design systems
01
Discovery & research

Market analysis, benchmarks and pain-point mapping, with AI accelerating synthesis. Judgment on what matters stays human.

02
Shaping & PRD

Problem, appetite and boundaries defined in writing. The output is a lean PRD: clear requirements, not vague briefs.

03
Breadboarding

The product becomes a map of screens, actions and connections. The flow is validated before the first pixel exists.

04
Design system first

Tokens as the single source of truth. Zero hardcoded hex: color, type and spacing always come from the system.

05
Vertical slices

Claude Code as pair programmer, building end-to-end slices that each ship complete value, one at a time.

06
Deploy, measure, iterate

Live on Vercel from week one. Real usage reveals what prototypes hide, and feeds the next slice.

Non-negotiables
  • Generated code is reviewed before commit
  • AI executes; design and engineering decisions stay mine
  • Nothing ships outside the design system
  • Tokens and patterns enforced in CI

Experience

Product Designer · Conversion & Acquisition

Editora Globo

I lead the design of acquisition pages and subscription flows for Editora Globo brands, such as O Globo and Valor Econômico, working alongside marketing, digital channels and the design team. I run a continuous A/B testing and conversion optimization (CRO) program connecting design to revenue, and create campaigns and assets across formats (digital, print, video, landing page and email marketing). I implement the landing pages in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, from Figma to a live product.

Recommendations

What colleagues say

André Costa

He's one of those restless professionals who never settle… exploring practical applications of Artificial Intelligence to drive better results and more efficiency. Pedro masterfully owns the entire construction of landing pages, creative production and the technical layer that sustains the whole campaign circuit, always focused on user experience and conversion.

Carolina Rocha

He doesn't keep that knowledge to himself: he shares discoveries, tests solutions and encourages everyone around him to grow with him. It was through him that I learned tools that are now part of my daily workflow… Without a doubt, a professional who raises the level of the people and projects he takes part in.

Felipe Musa

What stood out most was the combination of technical depth and product vision: he understands business goals and user needs, and has the technical knowledge to turn ideas into real solutions, bridging design and development very efficiently… I recommend Pedro with full confidence.
