An intranet that brings together everyday tools for the team: desk booking for hybrid work and an HR feedback platform.
The company used two separate paid tools to meet these needs.
I created and developed the intranet, hosted on the company's VPS infrastructure for predictable costs.
Both paid solutions were replaced by internal tools used by the entire team.
A system that turns website requirements into time estimates, guiding the sales team through client conversations.
The sales team needed to prepare quotes without relying on my involvement or technical knowledge.
I created a form with conditional paths. Each selection adds hours to the final estimate. The entire application is distributed as a single HTML file with the bundle included.
The file works without an internet connection, so it can be used during client visits. The company's entire sales team uses the system multiple times a day.
Development focused on SEO and editorial independence, including metadata, structured data, a blog, and editable text.
I developed the website with a focus on SEO best practices and content editing. Development took just one week, excluding briefing and approvals.
A reorganized catalog that presents cooling and heating products through clearer categories and listings.
I worked with the client to organize the products and proposed separating cooling and heating, with e-commerce-style listings within each category. I handled the project stages other than visual design and sales, including development and deployment.
A website introducing a sustainable technology fair, organizing its different aspects into a coherent structure for attendees.
I handled the client briefing, information organization, and sitemap, as well as development and deployment.

FEB. 2022 — PRESENTResponsibilities held within my Web Developer role: choosing the technology stack, planning delivery, and making technical decisions. I have also delegated tasks to another developer on the team.
Website and internal application development, legacy system maintenance, client meetings, and VPS deployment with Coolify. I have also worked with Vercel, Netlify, and Heroku.
I began my professional career at Macaw as an intern and moved into a developer role in 2023.
I'm Gabriel Rauta Zanette, a full-stack web developer based in Caxias do Sul, Brazil. I enjoy creating elegant solutions that meet strict requirements while keeping a human touch. I pay close attention to UX, visual polish, and the overall experience of the people using a system.
My experience spans corporate websites, internal applications, and legacy system maintenance. Working directly with clients is part of my job, as are defining scope and choosing the right technologies for each project.
I believe technical knowledge should be accessible. When clients understand the process beyond a surface-level overview, they feel more confident in the quality of the work.
