Summary
Juan Velasco is a founder and engineering leader with 8 years of experience building production-grade software and crypto rails connecting Latin America to global finance as Co-Founder and CTO of Capa. He combines startup grit with enterprise-grade discipline learned at Microsoft and Oracle, where his pipeline optimizations and metric deprecations saved Microsoft $1.6M annually and eliminated trillions of rows of data. Skilled across backend, mobile, and data pipelines, he has launched iOS and web products used by governments, nonprofits, and retailers while leading teams through release, monitoring, and compliance. Juan pairs hands-on engineering—low-code pipeline tooling, SQL-driven integrations, and cloud deployments—with a founder’s focus on product-market fit. Based in Mexico City, he brings a track record of turning complex regulatory and scale constraints into auditable, efficient systems. An uncommon detail: he’s blended competitive programming and cybersecurity study with practical iOS and cloud work, giving him both algorithmic rigor and product delivery experience.
