Location: New York City Metropolitan Area, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/andreavieira

Product-minded software engineer with 5+ years of experience building and scaling user-facing mobile products at Meta (Instagram/Messenger), with a strong background in Android and Kotlin. Experienced in working closely across Engineering, Product, Design, and Data to support complex initiatives from concept through launch—helping define success metrics, analyze adoption and retention, and ship features at global scale.

I bring a collaborative, execution-focused approach, using data, user insight, and product intuition to guide decisions and deliver thoughtful, high-quality experiences. My interests in design and psychology shape how I think about usability, long-term product quality, and meaningful user impact. Motivated by building human-centered products that enhance daily life, I’m currently exploring Product Manager, Technical Program Manager, or Android engineering roles focused on user-facing features and enduring product value.

## Work Experience
### Senior Software Engineer @ Meta

Worked across Messenger and Instagram on large-scale communication features, operating as both an individual contributor and project lead on high-impact initiatives.

Led end-to-end delivery of initiatives such as Add Yours for Instagram Direct and multiple information architecture redesigns, taking ownership of problem definition, data analysis, technical design, execution, and iteration. Coordinated timelines across engineering, product, and design, adapted plans based on new data and constraints, and guided other engineers to deliver scalable solutions supporting community growth, management, and moderation.
