Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBence Golda is a seasoned software leader and co-founder with 17 years of experience building distributed systems and web applications from the infrastructure up. As CTO of Cursor Insight since 2014 (and previously CTO at Bit and Pixel), he blends hands-on engineering with product-driven architecture, particularly in Ruby-based web stacks and operational Linux systems. His early work designing networks and admin systems for large school deployments and research-grade authentication projects gave him deep expertise in reliable system design and user-focused security. Based in Budapest, he pairs dual MSc degrees in Computer Science and IT/Economics with a pragmatic founder’s mindset, routinely turning complex requirements into maintainable, production-ready solutions. Not obviously visible in titles, he’s comfortable moving between low-level system administration and high-level distributed architecture, making him effective at both shipping code and steering technical strategy.
