Cauê Guerra is an engineering leader with 18 years of experience building high-scale platforms and AI-driven products, currently leading Growth engineering at Opendoor after extensive leadership at Shopify. He specializes in the AI application layer (LLMs, RAG, orchestration, evaluation), growth and revenue platforms, and platform simplification—having built teams from single digits to 150+ engineers and led systems serving millions of merchants. His work includes measurable business outcomes: a ~70% reduction in support workload via an AI assistant, 15% lift in onboarding conversion, 50% cuts in CDP costs, and faster experimentation latency. He combines hands-on backend engineering (evident in contributions to developer tooling like caelum-stella) with org design and talent-density improvements to reliably move projects from prototype to production. Comfortable coordinating cross-functional rollouts at global scale, he also advises startups through Shopify Ventures on AI, product, and engineering strategy.
