Founder & CEO at StigHive
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRaf Alencar is a founder and CEO with 20+ years designing decision-first organizations where incentives, signals, and AI agents produce the right outcomes without constant oversight. He blends a computer engineering background and an MBA with deep analytics and FP&A experience across telecom, loyalty, cannabis, retail, and financial services, turning fragmented reporting and stalled AI pilots into operational intelligence that actually drives decisions. As founder of StigHive and Raf Alencar Consulting he builds modular infrastructure—PAR, CharacterForge, faceless video pipelines—to prove a stigmergy-inspired Stig-Architecture that makes the natural action also the beneficial one. He has led enterprise transformations at Aurora, PwC, Aimia and Accenture, migrating manual processes to single-source BI and recovering multi-million-dollar EBITDA gaps through aligned execution. Raf writes and documents his experiments publicly at rafalencar.com and prefers embedding with leadership teams rather than offering off-the-shelf prescriptions. Not obvious from the title: he treats LLMs as active development collaborators, designing architectures so tools stick rather than gather dust.
