Senior🎓
Top SchoolErik Rey is an engineering leader with 11 years of experience scaling product-focused teams and shipping mobile-first platforms across Latin America, now leading engineering at Zillow from Mexico City. He has built and reorganized engineering organizations multiple times—most recently standing up Mercanto’s Mexico City team and delivering a streamlined core platform that moved a legacy business toward scale and revenue. A former Head of Mobile and early technical hire at Jüsto, Erik designed the architectures for customer apps and warehouse systems that supported rapid growth and significant fundraising. Technically hands-on, he still contributes to Android projects (MVVM/DataBinding upgrades and test fixes) and emphasizes code quality, automation, and measurable engineering metrics. Colleagues know him for blending pragmatic problem-solving with people-first management: hiring, mentoring, and aligning technology to business outcomes. He lives by “inventing the future,” bringing both startup grit and process discipline to complex product challenges.
