Reinaldo Simões
Staff Software Engineer in New York City
I’m Reinaldo Simões, a Staff Software Engineer in New York City focused on React, Next.js, TypeScript, and product engineering.
At Warby Parker I work on customer-facing systems and the product decisions behind them. Before that, I led projects at HelloFresh that improved growth, ordering, and the day-to-day customer experience.
I care about fast interfaces, clear tradeoffs, and systems that stay understandable as they scale. The work here reflects a mix of implementation depth, performance discipline, and technical leadership.
The case studies below are supporting examples of how I approach product strategy, system design, and frontend execution across consumer apps, internal tools, and applied AI projects.
