Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJosé Horta is a technology leader with a decade of experience building large-scale tax, fintech, and e-invoicing platforms, currently serving as Partner Principal for Tax Technology & Transformation at EY in Miami. He previously scaled Gosocket/Pagero as CTO, overseeing cloud-native architectures, blockchain experiments, and systems that processed hundreds of millions of transactions and billions of rows across Latin America. Comfortable across Azure, AWS, .NET, distributed patterns (CQRS/DDD), and data platforms, he blends hands-on engineering with strategic transformation for regulated, high-throughput environments. His career spans startup and enterprise roles from CTO to VP of engineering and academic IT leadership, anchored by a master’s in computer science with high distinction. A subtle but consistent thread in his work is translating complex regulatory and tax requirements into auditable, automated technology solutions that reduce friction for cross-border business.
