"Gilmar is undoubtedly an outstanding leader who, in a very humane way, manages to balance expectations and the freedom that remote work provides. Another point I must mention is his ability to build a culture of collaboration and the pursuit of common goals, even within the technology field. I am grateful for the opportunity and all the knowledge he has shared." Nando Martins, Logcomex, Senior Product Designer 10/11/22, 05:45 PM

"Working with Gilmar is always full of surprises. He is always in a good mood, whether it's early in the morning or late in the afternoon, Monday or Friday. He always brings something new, different, or just a simpler way of doing things. I remember countless situations where I was stuck on a problem, and he provided such a simple solution that it didn't even seem like a solution. The closer you get, the more you learn, not only about technology or the workplace but about various subjects like reading, cooking, music, and more. Undoubtedly, he's a 'Rodrigo Hilbert' with less beauty but much more intelligence and wisdom. Haha! During the time we worked together, my growth was exponential, and I am very grateful for that. It was a great pleasure to be part of the same team as him." Leonardo Koehler, O2B, DevOps Engineer 09/30/22, 12:29 PM

"An incredibly talented and dedicated professional. More than just a leader, Gilmar is an encourager and a friend, always fair, sensible, and concerned about the growth and well-being of everyone around him. He is extremely approachable, creative, and an excellent metaphor creator." Alison Valente, NVPC, Backend Coordinator 09/05/22, 11:34 AM
