Rafael Gonchor is a Staff Software Engineer and former CTO with over 16 years of hands-on experience building scalable systems across startups and scale-ups, now focused on backend architectures and generative AI. He has a track record of modernizing tech stacks and leading cloud-agnostic infrastructure and team-structure changes that enabled rapid growth—most recently driving a multi-platform migration and 5× month-over-month customer expansion at CondoConta. Comfortable across languages from Python and Kotlin to C++ and Dart/Flutter, he bridges product and engineering to deliver production-ready LLM integrations and multimodal content pipelines. Rafael pairs strategic leadership (MBA in high-performance team management) with deep implementation skill, preferring fast-moving environments where product impact is measurable. Outside work he experiments with hardware and gaming, which informs a pragmatic, systems-oriented approach to designing resilient, cost-conscious architectures.
