Gustavo Efeiche is an engineering leader with 11 years of experience building distributed systems, fintech platforms and applied-AI tooling from Brazil to Spain. He led engineering at Belvo to become a market-leading Open Finance payments provider in Brazil, architecting a 30+ microservice, event-driven payments platform handling 4M+ monthly transactions with 99.9% SLA and driving over $200M in annualized TPV. Previously he built high-throughput reconciliation and escrow systems at Bitso and EGRECCO, enabling rapid product launches and processing millions of transactions reliably. Gustavo combines hands-on system design (Java, Go, Python, Kafka) with regulatory and security delivery—leading AML/transaction monitoring, ISO 27001 and PCI-DSS audit success. He has a track record of cutting costs and time-to-market (20% compute savings, 60% faster GTM) while scaling distributed teams and careers across time zones. Now on a founding team in stealth from Barcelona, he blends operator-level execution with product-minded technical strategy.
