ABOUT JULIO CARVALHO
I\'m a Brazilian-Spanish creative designer currently based in Munich, working at the intersection of brand, campaign, and product design.At Sinch, I\'m the sole creative designer behind two global email platforms: Mailjet and Mailgun, used by marketers and developers across the US, France, Germany, Spain, and beyond.I joined as a Junior Designer and progressed to Senior Visual Designer and de facto Creative Lead in under a year — taking on full ownership of both brands in early 2026.Day to day, that means: leading a company-wide brand refresh across 100+ assets, conceiving and producing paid ad campaigns from strategy through to final artwork, designing GTM launch suites for new product features, directing external agencies and freelancers, and making sure everything works in at least four languages.Before Sinch, I designed for Nubank, Latin America\'s largest fintech, supporting the launch of NuPay, their e-commerce payments product.And before I was a designer, I was a developer: I started my career as a software engineering intern working with Angular, HTML, and CSS. That technical foundation still shapes how I design.I care about design that\'s strategic, not decorative. Concepts that hold up across formats, languages, and channels.I\'m focused on creating intuitive and engaging digital experiences, leveraging a path that combines strong visual design skills with a solid foundation in UX principles and technology.I believe great design happens at the intersection of user needs, business goals, and technical feasibility. My strength lies in understanding this intersection, applying design thinking, and utilizing skills in UX/UI design, prototyping, and visual communication to create solutions that are both effective and appealing.If you value a designer who can think systematically, design visually, and always keep the user in mind, I\'d love to chat. Let\'s connect!Tools: Figma (been using it since 2020; I\'m extremely comfortable working in Figma) · Adobe CC · HTML/CSS · Generative AI for design workflows: NanoBanana, Veo3. Ethical use of AI when it makes sense to do so, to achieve new grounds, not just using it for the sake of it.Languages: Portuguese (native) · English (fluent) · Spanish (fluent)
