About Me

Daniel Gonçalo

Hello! I'm Daniel — a Front-End Developer with 8+ years of experience turning complex requirements into clean, fast, and accessible web products. I care deeply about code quality, user experience, and the details that make the difference.

My stack spans HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP and a wide range of frameworks — WordPress, Drupal, Angular, React, Hugo, Jekyll, and Blazor. I'm equally comfortable leading a CMS migration, building custom plugins, integrating with Power Platform, or pushing pixels until they're perfect.

I hold a Degree in Computer Science Engineering from Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa and have delivered projects for startups, state-owned institutions like Infraestruturas de Portugal, the Ministry of Health (SPMS), and global consulting firm PwC Portugal. At PwC I was even awarded for an innovative onboarding app I helped build.

I'm currently available for new opportunities — whether that's a full-time role, a long-term contract, or a challenging freelance project.
