Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlessandra Pereyra is a seasoned technology leader and entrepreneur with 14 years of engineering experience and nearly three decades building products, teams, and startups across Latin America and the U.S. As Co-Founder and CTO of Alma (and previously Bliss and CodePicnic), she blends hands-on Rails and React product development with scaling engineering organizations of 50+ people and raising seed capital. She thrives at the intersection of product, design, and people operations—staffing, coaching, and shaping company-as-product processes to enable sustainable growth. A quick learner who credits her ADHD for creative problem-solving, she prefers tackling “impossible” challenges and bending conventional constraints into useful solutions. Recently she’s been pursuing a parallel passion for writing and the book industry, bringing a human-centered lens of kindness and empathy to technical leadership.
