§ 01Case studies

Real problems, decisions explained.

Every project starts by understanding how the people using the system actually work. Below: the context, the technical decisions, and what they made possible.

Case 01 · HealthcareHospital platform

Unicirurgia

Surgical and hospital management that brings scheduling, teams, supplies and operating rooms into one place.

Role
Architecture and development
Stack
Next.js · React · TypeScript · CouchDB · PouchDB
unicirurgia.com

Context

Surgical centers coordinate rooms, medical teams, supplies, insurers and patients all at once, in a setting where a scheduling error has a clinical cost.

Challenge

Unify scattered processes into one reliable platform that keeps working even when the hospital’s connection drops.

Technical decisions

  1. 01Offline-first architecture with CouchDB ↔ PouchDB sync
  2. 02Real-time operating room map with room control
  3. 03Authentication and role-based permissions
  4. 04Management dashboards and reports

Outcome

Traceable surgical processes in one place, with fewer operational failures and continuous improvement alongside hospital teams.

Case 02 · HealthcareDigital product

LabyWallet

A digital wallet that keeps lab results, prescriptions and medical reports in one place, with AI-generated insights.

Role
Technical lead for the redesign
Stack
Next.js · React · PostgreSQL · AI
labywallet.com

Context

A product that was about to be discontinued. I proposed and led its complete redesign.

Challenge

Handle highly sensitive health data and turn it into information that is genuinely useful to patients.

Technical decisions

  1. 01Complete redesign of the product and its codebase
  2. 02AI integration for personalized health insights
  3. 03PostgreSQL persistence under strict security standards
  4. 04Flows designed to comply with LGPD, Brazil’s data protection law

Outcome

A product rescued and relaunched, with results and reports centralized and secure.

Case 03 · RetailSaaS platform

Inova Menu

Digital menu and order management that digitizes service for restaurants and retailers.

Role
Full-stack and infrastructure
Stack
Next.js · TypeScript · Node.js · Docker · AWS EC2 · GitHub Actions
inovamenu.com.br

Context

Businesses needed to digitize customer service without losing control of the floor.

Challenge

Deliver a fast interface for customers and a real-time dashboard for staff, on infrastructure ready to scale.

Technical decisions

  1. 01Admin dashboard with real-time updates
  2. 02Docker containers on AWS EC2 instances
  3. 03CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions

Outcome

Digitized service and continuous delivery, on a stable, automated production environment.

§ 02Services

Three ways to work together.

From a brand-new system to an audit of one you already run. The scope changes; the rigor doesn’t.

Build

Custom systems and platforms

Web systems, healthcare platforms and digital products that replace spreadsheets and manual processes.

  • Management systems and admin dashboards
  • Clinical and hospital platforms
  • High-performance corporate websites and landing pages
  • Integrations with APIs and external services
Run

Infrastructure, support and evolution

Stable, automated environments, with ongoing support after the system goes live.

  • Docker, AWS and automated deployment
  • CI/CD with GitHub Actions
  • Monitoring, fixes and new features
  • Monthly report of the work done
Advise

Technical assessment and consulting

Technical clarity before you invest: a review of your system or idea, with a focused action plan.

  • Architecture and security review
  • Performance analysis
  • Data protection compliance (LGPD/GDPR) in data flows
  • Recommendations prioritized by impact
§ 03Process

Predictable by design.

Every phase ends with a concrete document or delivery. You know what you are paying for and what you will get.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    I learn how you operate, the problem to solve, and what success means for your business.

    DeliverableDiscovery summary

  2. 02

    Technical proposal

    Scope, architecture, timeline and budget in writing, with no fine print.

    DeliverableSigned proposal

  3. 03

    Build

    Frequent incremental releases that you follow and approve throughout the project.

    DeliverableApproved releases

  4. 04

    Operate

    Launch, team training and support after delivery.

    DeliverableCode, access and documentation

Engagement models

Fixed-scope project

Scope, timeline and price agreed before we start, with a warranty after delivery.

Best forNew systems, websites and MVPs

Monthly retainer

A bank of hours to maintain and evolve a live system, with a monthly report.

Best forProducts that need to grow

Consulting

A one-off technical assessment with prioritized recommendations and a review meeting.

Best forTechnical decisions and audits

§ 04Principles

What’s non-negotiable.

I

Security from the first line

Role- and attribute-based access control (RBAC and ABAC) and data handling compliant with LGPD and GDPR principles.

II

Systems that don’t stop

Offline-first architecture when the operation demands it: the system keeps working when the internet fails.

III

You own the code

At the end, you receive the source code, access and documentation. No vendor lock-in.

IV

Business before code

I understand the problem before writing the first line. Technology is the means, not the goal.

§ 05About

One technical lead, start to finish.

Portrait of Maicon Machado

Maicon Machado

Full-stack software engineer

Based in Brazil · Working remotely worldwide

I’m a full-stack software engineer who builds systems around the real problems of the people who use them. I handle the interface, back end, database and infrastructure, which removes hand-offs between vendors and keeps a single view of the project.

I work at Inova Rise, a HealthTech company focused on high-performance solutions for hospitals and clinics, where I help design and scale platforms such as Unicirurgia and LabyWallet.

§ 06FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

01Do you work with companies outside Brazil?

Yes. I work remotely, with video calls and ongoing project updates, and communicate fluently in English.

02How much does a project cost?

It depends on the scope. After the discovery call, you receive a written proposal with scope, timeline and budget.

03How long does it take?

A landing page usually takes a few weeks. Larger systems are split into releases so you can start using them as early as possible.

04Do I own the code and the system?

Yes. At the end of the project you receive the source code, documentation and access to every environment included in the contract.

05How do you handle sensitive data?

With role-based access control, encrypted communication channels and flows designed for data protection compliance from day one.

06Is there support after delivery?

Yes. Every project includes a warranty period, and you can add a monthly retainer to keep evolving the system.
