Tony Silva

Fullstack Web Engineer

Tony is a full-stack developer at Napps, and for approximately one full year he was also a rumor. He worked, he shipped, he showed up in every standup, and yet nobody on the team could have picked him out of a lineup, because his camera was a theoretical object. The team eventually bought a webcam to solve this. It went almost entirely unused and then, somehow, broke, purely from the strain of never being asked to do anything, which remains the most Tony thing that has ever happened.

He loves to code and hates design with a purity that is honestly refreshing. His monitor runs at the brightness of a Nokia 2000, roughly one candle in a distant window, and for a long stretch his phone ran at a resolution so high it was functionally a desktop, because why should a screen be comfortable when it could instead be technically impressive. His design tool of choice is Paint. Not "was." Is. And forever will be. He will open Paint before he opens Figma, and he will be at peace.

Away from the keyboard he loves F1 and cars in general, the one context in which he actively wants things to be fast, loud, and visible. He also loves his cat, Bianca, who is, as far as anyone can confirm, the only living being who has reliably seen his face.
