About

I’m João Russio. A software engineer, entrepreneur, Shai’s father, and Gabi’s husband.

I’ve worked in software since 2016. I started as a full stack developer, then moved into technical leadership and engineering management. In July 2026, I took on the Forward Deployed Engineering practice at Mosten.

My work covers architecture, teams, portfolio management, and software delivery for large companies. I like staying close to the whole process: understanding the problem, building a solution, and seeing how it works in day-to-day operations.

I also build projects of my own. One is Foco, a macOS app that keeps the current task in view while I work.

Outside work, I read, run, and practice minimalism. Being a father and husband shapes how I organize my life and think about time, attention, and priorities.

Why I write

Writing helps me make sense of what I’m learning. This is where I keep experiences with software and AI, decisions about leadership and business, reading notes, and everyday observations.

Some posts are technical. Others are just an observation I wanted to keep. There’s room for both.
