Summary
Avery Durrant is a founder and seasoned software leader with 12 years building startups and shipping product-led engineering teams from New York. As a Co-Founder and long-time CTO of Dripos (YC S20), then CEO, Avery combined hands-on development with company leadership across operations, fundraising, and product-market fit. He now leads a stealth startup, bringing deep experience scaling early-stage tech, payment or hospitality-adjacent systems, and moving rapidly from prototype to revenue. Known for a maker’s mindset—“I like to make things”—he pairs practical engineering with entrepreneurial grit and a bias toward shipping. An unconventional detail: Avery moved between hands-on engineering roles and executive leadership multiple times, demonstrating both technical depth and the ability to run a company.
