Summary
Andrei Tigai is a product-minded founding product engineer based in Berlin with nine years of hands-on experience across software engineering, QA, and technical support. He has shipped full-stack features at Contentful—leading localization, designing reusable UI components for an open-source design system, and streamlining report workflows—then moved to building the context layer for AI at an early-stage startup backed by prominent European investors. Comfortable across JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Node.js and PostgreSQL (with earlier Ruby and Python exposure), he combines customer-facing support experience with deep product instincts to prototype and validate ideas quickly. Andrei’s background in support and QA gives him an uncommon ability to translate customer issues into robust, testable features and faster incident resolution. He enjoys rapid prototyping (Figma, Miro) and forming small cross-functional teams to turn MVPs into production-ready products.
