Fabio Oliveira promoted to YLD Managing Director

Software engineering and design consultancy YLD has appointed Fabio Oliveira as its new Managing Director.

Having been with the company for over five years, Fabio has led many of YLD’s software engineering and consultancy projects for the likes of Trainline, News UK, The Times, and for the last three years, he has held the position of MD for the company’s Portuguese operations. His move to taking up the role as Managing Director for the whole organisation begins immediately and he will be responsible for leading and developing YLD’s global operations, including its remote engineering teams.

Nuno Job, YLD Co-founder and CEO, said: “Fabio has been an integral part of YLD since our earliest days. He brings the highest calibre of technical and leadership skills to this new role, honed in his time building diverse and thriving operations in Portugal. As our team grows and our bespoke services increase, I am excited to work with Fabio to help even more companies in their digital transformation.”

Fabio added: “The combination of problem-solving and human-centred engineering that drew me to YLD, still holds true today. I am honoured to be stepping into this role to continue this ethos for our team and our clients and I look forward to this next era together with everyone.”
