Summary
Henrique Rusca is a technology-driven CEO and founder with 12 years of experience building fintech and marketplace platforms, currently scaling CondoLivre into Brazil’s leading financial services provider for condominiums. He transitioned from CTO to CEO after architecting the company’s microservices, proprietary OCR on AWS, and financial models that enabled R$50M in credit operations, and now focuses on strategy, culture and investor communications. A former tech lead at Loggi and Zup, he combines hands-on engineering (from backend systems and automated tests to event-driven, low-debt architectures) with people development and hypothesis-driven product validation. He mentors startups across Silicon Valley, the UK and Brazil, and recently completed Stanford’s Executive Program for Growing Companies, underscoring his blend of operational rigor and growth mindset. Notably, Henrique favors cheap, rapid validations over long projects and has a track record of turning manual processes into fully automated, production-grade systems.
