Summary
Francisco Matelli is a versatile solo developer and startup founder with 10+ years building web and AI-driven products, currently scaling an AI-powered video editor from Milan with plans for investment-led growth. He has deep front-end chops in Angular and React since 2018 and a decade-plus history with WordPress, PHP and full-stack systems that power CRMs, dashboards and high-performance marketing sites. His experience spans AI projects—facial-recognition access control and document-insight pipelines—to consumer and education platforms, evidencing an ability to move models from prototype to production. As founder of multiple startups and a former coworking-hostel operator, he pairs technical delivery with product intuition and hands-on business operations. Comfortable working across languages and cultures (including an Italian-resident stint converting Figma into accessible Next.js interfaces), he brings pragmatic, user-focused engineering to complex domains. His background in business administration and computer systems analysis supports both technical leadership and investor-facing strategy.
