Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRichard Kasperowski is a seasoned software leader and Co-Founder/CTO of Alli Connect (Techstars ’22), where he built a HIPAA-grade, privacy-first predictive mental wellness platform serving 30+ first-responder departments and 770+ monthly users with an 88% therapist-match success rate and rapid 70–85% adoption. He combines hands-on engineering (React Native, Micronaut, PostgreSQL, Python) with product ownership and ops, running a high-agile team that practices 99% pair programming, one-week sprints, and continuous delivery to maintain 99.99% uptime. An educator and author, Richard created and taught Agile Software Development at Harvard for nearly a decade and co-founded BU Spark!, bringing classroom-proven practices (Core Protocols, mob programming, TDD) into startups and enterprises. He also advises and invests in health-focused startups and underrepresented founders, helping them scale teams and product agility. Less obvious: he architected the platform so individual wellness data never reaches command staff, blending strict privacy design with AI-powered matching and integrations like Qualtrics and Twilio.
