The Story

‍Diego Ferreira, Chief Digital Officer at Dollar Shave Club, leads with the conviction that business and technology are now inseparable. With a career spanning engineering, finance, and sales, Diego moves beyond the traditional "purely technical" leadership style to drive outcomes that resonate across the entire organization. To maintain this high-level integration, he relies on building high-performing, distributed teams that bridge cultures and time zones seamlessly.

The Vision/Challenge

‍At Dollar Shave Club’s scale, engineering isn't just about shipping features; it’s about understanding the financial and operational impact of every line of code. Diego’s challenge was to find senior engineers who could operate in a flat, fast-moving environment where product-mindedness is as critical as technical depth. He needed a way to scale his team with experts who could integrate into a distributed culture without the friction of traditional, slow-moving hiring cycles.

The Revelo Partnership

‍Dollar Shave Club utilized Revelo to secure senior, LatAm-based talent that fits their "business-first" engineering culture. By tapping into Revelo's network of 400,000+ vetted engineers, Diego bypassed the Silicon Valley talent war to find nearshore experts who are time-zone aligned and production-ready. These engineers work directly as core members of the team, while Revelo manages the payroll and compliance through a single dashboard, allowing Diego to focus on digital strategy.

In Their Words

"The era of the purely technical leader is over. Today, you need engineers who understand the business and a partner like Revelo that can find that specific caliber of talent at scale."
