André Dornas is a Senior Software Engineer based in Berlin with 11 years of experience building production systems across startups and large fintechs.

He co-founded and built an education startup that went through two seed accelerators, giving him product intuition and hands-on experience in early-stage scaling. His research background in combinatorial optimization produced a GECCO conference paper on 3D bin packing, reflecting a strong algorithmic and AI foundation. André is also an AI-for-games enthusiast and routinely blends experimental research thinking with pragmatic engineering to unlock novel product capabilities.
