Marcos Carvalho
I design products and build the systems they live in.
Fourteen years turning complex systems into products people use. Four products under one design system. A fintech through growth. A SaaS through churn. A 20 year rebrand, shipped.
Now I design and build with AI. Not around it. With it.
Product design
End to end, from research to shipped system.
Dense products, fintech and ecommerce. Research to shipped system, with the architecture decided before the pixels. At Solvefy that meant four products pulled under one design system and one language.

I build with AI, not around it.
AI driven design workflows that shortened delivery for the whole team, then an internal leads engine designed and built end to end. The stack is in my hands daily, not in a deck.

Craft & leadership
Craft is the delivery, not the decoration.
Design and growth together at Solvefy, after three runs as Product Design Lead and one as Design Director. Founder of CEROL, my own studio, and of Lerdo, the cycling brand I built from zero. I hire, mentor and leave a culture behind.
Product Design Lead ×3 · Design Director · founder ×2
The punk and DIY scene made me a designer years before I understood what design was. Self taught musician since 13. Moved by everything new. Fourteen years later I run CEROL, my own design company, and still build worlds end to end, from the pixel to the P&L.
