Peoplelogic Employee Spotlight: Meet Jorge!

Here at Peoplelogic, we love to recognize our employees and celebrate their achievements! That’s why we’ve created a new monthly Employee Spotlight where we can highlight each team member in personal interviews.  

Post-pandemic, in the spring of ‘22, our small startup began to scale. And with this newfound growth, new opportunities began to open. Our C-suite knew for us to be successful as a team, we would need to have the right people in the right roles at the right time. This path, and our commitment to our core values, led us to find strong software engineers like Jorge who have both technical capabilities as well as a love for helping people.  

Hailing from Portugal, our tenured team member, Jorge Araujo, has been kicking ass and taking names. At work, Jorge enjoys providing quantitative value to customers and teams. In his free time, you can catch Jorge spending quality time with family or enjoying a night out in Porto with friends.
