Marcel Pereira da Costa
Igor foi um dos caras mais fantásticos que conheci em minha jornada. Profissional honesto, focado, comprometido e com um nível de organização acima do normal. Muita preocupação e carinho com seus liderados e pares.

It's funny looking backward, but Igor is probably one of the people that helped me grow the most during my time at Magnetis. The reason it is funny to me is that we didn't hit it off immediately when we first started working together. We didn't have any issues, but I felt we had different mindsets about what development was like and which parts were the most important in the development process. Turns out this is the reason working with him was such a spectacular learning experience for me because as the months and years went by, I could closely watch how team development and project management skills could impact the software being delivered. Even more so, I could learn by trial and error that these aspects were required (not just extra) to make anything programmable work at scale and, especially, that I wasn't very good at it. Luckily I had an excellent example to look up to and learn from, and that's why I recommend Igor, not just as a software developer, not just as a team manager, but as a leader and person. I'm proud to say the last months working together were the exact opposite of our first impressions: we could collaborate, learn and ship working software at a fast-paced rhythm, all while still being open to change in requirements and communicating cleanly and efficiently, not just between ourselves but with the whole team. I could never have achieved this level of pleasure and productivity in my work without Igor's help. If that's what you want in your team, Igor is the obvious choice for it.

Sep 2013 - Jun 2015
Activities: Build and maintain an Resource/Reservations Manager App for the main building of the institution (CIVT). The app is built in Ruby on Rails with twitter bootstrap and was an ideia of an institution's teacher. Its objective is to make easy to reserve any of the reservables rooms (or other types of resources) of CIVT. The project started as a course assignment and quickly grew so big that it became a real project used at a sector of the university.
