I'm Camila Freitas Ribeiro,
a product leader
based in Berlin.

About Me.

I'm a technology generalist passionate about software development, product management and design - mostly, an eternal student of those crafts. My contribution has so far spanned through a wide range of industries: I've managed products in banking, transportation, housing rental and classifieds marketplaces.

My passion for product management comes from the cross-disciplinary nature of the role and from the learning possibilities: I particularly enjoy working with digital analytics, SEO, user experience, UI design, user research and conversion optimisation.

My core professional values: direct communication, pragmatism, extreme dedication, GSD attitude, empathy, focus on details and strategy, leadership through example and excellence in day-to-day execution. My core guideline as a PM: work in agile environments to build enjoyable products with reduced cognitive load for an optimal conversion towards both individual transactions and customer lifetime value.
