Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMarcondes Silva is a pragmatic engineering leader and founding engineer with 13+ years of software experience and a track record of turning research and early-stage ideas into revenue-grade products. Currently serving as a Fractional CTO, he helps startups ship MVPs and embed engineering operating systems—CI/CD, observability, quality gates and scalable architecture—so product momentum survives beyond heroics. He has built high-throughput data pipelines and delivery foundations for institutional fintech and research products (e.g., a platform processing 100k+ ETFs and ESG data) and has led distributed teams across London, Paris and MENA. A hands-on manager who still ships code, he’s contributed to well-known open-source projects like Homebrew and pydub, modernizing packaging and Python 3 support. Expect a leader who blends practical systems engineering with hiring, onboarding and first-hire team design to make small teams reliably productive.
