Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndre Cunha is a serial founder, technologist, and PhD engineer with 12 years of experience building fintech and hardware ventures across Latin America and beyond. He founded and led eWally, a mobile payments and financial-services platform focused on serving unbanked populations, and previously built smartphone and distribution businesses that scaled regionally. Trained in electrical engineering, optics, and AI (PhD University of Michigan, recent AI certificate from MIT), he blends deep technical expertise with strategic product and operations leadership. Currently applying precision aviation skills as a Gulfstream G550 pilot on life-saving medical transport missions, he combines high-stakes operational discipline with entrepreneurial risk-taking. Board and advisory roles in RFID asset-tracking and labor-rights projects reflect a pattern of seeking impact where technology, logistics, and social good intersect. Not obvious from his title: he moves seamlessly between low-level engineering research and CEO-level investor relations, making him equally comfortable with technical design reviews and strategic fundraising.
