People I’ve worked with

  • Willian Hiroshi FukudaBack-end Developer

    A great employee and teammate, always very dedicated, organized and creative. I admire the quality of his work and it was a pleasure working with him. I definitely recommend him!

  • Guilherme MolariFull-Stack Developer · Next.js · iGaming

    I had the opportunity to work with João, and he is definitely one of the most talented UX/UI professionals I’ve had the chance to work with.

    He has a great balance of strong design skills, technical knowledge, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of user experience. What I especially appreciate is that he doesn’t just focus on making things look good — he thinks about the user, the product, the business, and how all of these pieces fit together.

    On top of his hard skills, João is an excellent person to work with. He communicates clearly, collaborates really well with different teams, is always open to feedback, and brings a very positive and proactive attitude to the work.

    He is the kind of professional who makes the team better, both through his expertise and the way he works with people. I would definitely recommend João to any team looking for a strong UX/UI professional who combines great design skills with excellent soft skills.

  • Filipe MolonCo-Founder & CEO · Supernova Gaming

    I had the pleasure of working with João Lucas as a UX/UI Designer on our Supernova Gaming team, and he stood out in every way. He has solid technical command of interface and user experience, and above-average knowledge of gamification. He understands how to turn engagement mechanics into products people enjoy using.

    Beyond the technical side, he is extremely responsible with deliveries. He takes ownership of his work and meets deadlines without needing to be chased. He is proactive, learns fast and is always looking to improve the product and his own work. He is also a great teammate: collaborative, easy to work with and always willing to help.

    I recommend João Lucas without hesitation to any team that needs a designer who combines technical quality, product vision and commitment.
