In my 22 years in tech, I’ve been a Software Engineer, Tech Lead, Manager, and CTO. I’ve built and sold two companies, led teams through major challenges, and made every mistake you can imagine along the way.
That’s why I created First Lead. I know firsthand how overwhelming the Tech Lead role can feel — unclear expectations, constant pressure, and no real guidance. Yet it’s also the single most powerful role for accelerating your career as a developer.
Over the years, I’ve mentored hundreds of Tech Leads directly and taught thousands of students — first in Brazil, and now expanding worldwide — through First Lead, helping them gain the skills, confidence, and respect they need to succeed.
Now it’s your turn.

Este curso é ideal para desenvolvedores de software que aspiram a se tornar tech leads, além de tech leads atuais que buscam aprimorar suas habilidades de liderança e gestão de equipes. Se você deseja liderar com confiança, comunicar efetivamente com stakeholders e promover uma cultura de excelência técnica, este curso é para você.
Esse curso foi feito com base em centenas de profissionais que ajudei durante o meu dia a dia como líder na área de tecnologia. Juntamente com as dezenas de mentorias que fiz, encontrei quais eram as principais dúvidas, problemas e preocupações dos Tech Leads para montar um curso bem direto ao ponto. O Curso para Tech Leads é um programa abrangente projetado para desenvolvedores de software em nível intermediário, sênior ou que já sejam Tech Leads que desejam avançar para posições de liderança técnica com segurança e confiança no que estão fazendo. O curso cobre aspectos cruciais da liderança técnica, incluindo habilidades técnicas, gestão de negócios, liderança de pessoas e cultura organizacional.
O curso é dividido em cinco módulos principais: Introdução à Liderança Técnica, Pilar Técnico, Pilar de Negócios, Pilar de Pessoas e Cultura.
O curso é oferecido online, permitindo que você aprenda no seu próprio ritmo. Inclui videoaulas, materiais de leitura complementares, exercícios práticos e entregáveis que ajudam a aplicar o que foi aprendido no contexto do seu trabalho. O curso possui acesso vitalício.
A duração do curso varia de acordo com o ritmo de aprendizado de cada aluno, mas a maioria consegue completar todos os módulos e atividades em aproximadamente 4 semanas.
Sim, oferecemos uma garantia de satisfação de 7 dias. Se, por qualquer motivo, você decidir que o curso não é o certo para você dentro desse período, oferecemos um reembolso completo.

Recomendamos que os participantes tenham experiência em desenvolvimento de software e um interesse genuíno em avançar para uma posição de liderança técnica. Conhecimento em fundamentos de programação e experiência em trabalho em equipe são vantajosos, mas o curso é projetado para ser acessível a indivíduos em vários níveis de sua carreira técnica.
Sim, desenvolvedores júnior são bem-vindos a fazer o curso. Embora o foco seja em habilidades e conhecimentos para aspirantes a tech leads ou tech leads atuais, desenvolvedores em início de carreira podem se beneficiar significativamente ao entender as trajetórias de carreira disponíveis, além de começar a desenvolver habilidades de liderança e gestão desde cedo. Isso pode acelerar seu progresso para funções mais avançadas no futuro.
Sim, mesmo para tech leads experientes, sempre há espaço para crescimento e aprimoramento. Este curso pode oferecer novas perspectivas e técnicas, além de que a maioria dos Tech Leads não recebe treinamento das empresas. Além disso, o curso pode ajudar a refinar suas habilidades de liderança e gestão de equipe, abordando desafios comuns e oferecendo estratégias para criar equipes de alta performance e promover uma cultura positiva. Consideramos que o aprendizado contínuo é chave para manter-se relevante e eficaz em papéis de liderança técnica.
