Hi, My name is Hugo Amorim

Full-Stack Developer | React & Node.js | UX + Design Background | Founder @ SimpleSeverance

Full-Stack Developer with 6+ years of experience specializing in React, with a background in graphic design that shapes how I approach every product I build. I don't just write code — I think about how it feels to use.

My work sits at the intersection of design and engineering. Before I wrote my first line of production code, I spent years as a graphic designer, which means I naturally think about typography, hierarchy, and user psychology alongside component architecture and API design. I've shipped across healthcare, environmental data, HVAC, and nonprofit — and I'm currently building SimpleSeverance, a SaaS platform that helps employees navigate workplace severance.

I believe full-stack development is about more than writing code — it's about understanding the full picture, from what a user needs to how the system delivers it. I thrive in collaborative environments where design, product, and engineering work closely together.
