Diogo Costa

In a nutshell

I am a Portuguese techie, father and student of all things (humans, knowledge, myself). I lived in UK, Switzerland and France, and now I am in Portugal.

The professional

For the past 5 years I have been in tech, and specifically web development.

My latest role had me build and lead a team at Route Reports, a startup in road and rail maintenance. We went deep into map tech, data pipelines, product management and computer vision.

Past me has seen varying measures of professional success as a movie extra, poker pro and video producer.

Do get in touch if you have a project that attempts to change things for the better, is hard to nail and needs people who are all in.

The human

I try to be a positive role model for my children. Be open to new relationships and cultivate existing ones. Put myself in people's shoes, use empathy to really get what they feel and do. I love a deep discussion and always assume there is something more to learn.

One good habit I have is reading. I manage 2 books a month on average.

I get my movement/fresh air needs from long walks outside while listening to podcasts, and I play Padel on the regular - find this an excellent way to push for improvement and keep myself humble!
