Gilberto Taccari is a seasoned technology executive and PhD-enriched software engineer with a decade of experience scaling fintech and B2B2SME platforms from architecture to product delivery. Currently CTO at Tot, he blends hands-on backend expertise (Java, Node.js, cloud/AWS) with leadership in hiring, mentoring, and cross-functional collaboration built during co-founding and head-of-technology roles. His background spans payments, identity/onboarding integrations (Solarisbank, IDnow), open banking, and resilient API-first design, informed by early R&D work in trading systems and performance benchmarking. He routinely translates regulatory and data-compliance constraints into pragmatic engineering policies and product features, and has mentored practitioners converting legacy apps to cloud-native architectures. Based in Milan, he pairs academic rigor with startup pragmatism—often surfacing non-obvious trade-offs between extensibility and operational robustness when advising investors or clients.
