Flávia Ferri

Senior Frontend Engineer

Frontend engineer building product for regulated fintech — six years across web and mobile, from design systems to shipping.

About

I'm a frontend engineer who loves shipping product, organising chaotic work, and supporting the people around me. Six years in, mostly in React, Next.js and TypeScript — currently modernising a regulated fintech platform used by 20,000+ brokers at Nationale-Nederlanden in the Netherlands.

I came into tech after seven years in banking, and that lens still shapes how I work: real ownership, clear communication with stakeholders, and a habit of asking what a feature actually does for the person using it.
