Pedro Afonso
Team Lead & Frontend Developer · Porto, Portugal
Software developer with over 17 years in the industry. I started in frontend — JavaScript, AngularJS, React — and today lead a six-person development team at Azakaw. My role combines delivery ownership with hands-on work: backlog grooming, sprint planning, and keeping work tested and release-ready, while still writing code and reviewing pull requests. I run 1:1s, mentor developers on the frontend, and take part in technical interviews.
