Senior🎓
Top SchoolKurt Freytag is a veteran product and engineering executive with 35 years of experience building and scaling consumer and enterprise digital products across FinTech, Payments, Commerce, AdTech, SaaS, Data, and Social Media. He conceived and launched Facebook Marketplace—now a 1.2B MAU P2P commerce exchange—and has a track record of turning data assets and legacy software into profitable, high-growth SaaS businesses, including transforming Crunchbase and driving ARR to $200M while doubling company value. Equally at home in product strategy, design leadership, and technical execution, he combines three-tier architecture and cloud-native expertise with commercial instincts in pricing, go-to-market and partner channels. Kurt has repeatedly led cross-functional teams through large rewrites, cloud migrations, and platform launches, hiring and mentoring product and engineering leaders along the way. Based in Berkeley, he advises and invests in startups focused on developer productivity, data infrastructure, and social media, bringing an uncommon blend of operator experience and early-stage insight. His background—BA in International Relations from Stanford and early roots in both enterprise and retail tech—gives him a rare perspective on product-market fit across consumer and B2B ecosystems.
