Summary
Max Holzheu is a technical lead and former CTO with 11 years of experience building and scaling consumer platforms from the ground up, including a Y Combinator-backed reviews site that reached 5M monthly users. He blends hands-on full-stack engineering, infrastructure design, and engineering management to drive measurable improvements—cutting load times 10x, eliminating recurring bugs, and saving hours through automation. Based in Guatemala City, he now leads engineering at Recurrente while consulting through Tologo Labs to help companies formalize processes for scaling. A self-taught web developer, Max is equally comfortable optimizing Postgres internals or designing SEO-first architectures, and he brings a founder’s mindset to product and team decisions.
