About

With over 32 years of management and hands-on experience, I offer a rare blend of technical depth and strategic leadership, delivering high impact at scale across industry giants like Google, Meta, AWS, and Oracle. My expertise spans Cloud Infrastructure, Distributed Systems, Web Development, Embedded Systems (RTOS, Linux, Android), and cutting-edge AI - including Generative AI and Machine/Deep Learning - all grounded in robust privacy and security foundations (GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, ISO27001). I am also the author and technical reviewer of multiple bestsellers, including books published by Alex Xu from ByteByteGo. I am also a co-author of Google's Protocol Buffers for mobile devices and have contributed multiple Android OS contributions.

As a coach, I bring a holistic approach to interview preparation and career growth.

Regards, Manny

Manoel is an exceptional career coach with over 30 years of experience, and it truly shows in every conversation. He is incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and always willing to help. Rather than giving generic advice, he takes the time to understand your situation and provides many constructive, practical suggestions that are both insightful and actionable. His guidance has been extremely valuable, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for experienced, honest, and supportive career coaching.

Interview coaching · Behavioral mock interview
I completed three mock interviews with Manoel, and he is an exceptional coach. He provided actionable advice that significantly enhanced my behavioral stories. I also really appreciated that he taught me new concepts related to risk and stakeholder management. In our last session, he even went overtime to ensure all my questions were answered. I highly recommend him.

Interview coaching · General discussion
Manoel was an exceptional interview coach throughout my interview process. He helped me practice both common and less obvious interview problems, which made me feel genuinely prepared for anything. His coaching significantly reduced my nerves, and the questions he asked closely mirrored what I encountered in real interviews. He also spent time preparing me ahead of each round so I knew what to expect. I highly recommend Manoel to anyone looking for thorough, realistic, and confidence boosting interview prep.
