Senior🎓
Top SchoolRienzi Gokea is a founder and senior software engineer with 11 years of experience blending mechanical engineering rigor from Columbia and advanced CS training from Georgia Tech into pragmatic product delivery. He has led full-stack projects and technical teams across fintech and healthtech, repeatedly simplifying complex systems—e.g., rebuilding a cashflows engine to be an order of magnitude faster and reducing monorepo CI/CD times. At Auba he improved developer DX through containerization and hot-reloading while shipping customer-facing features and testing strategies that raised app confidence. Comfortable moving between product design, backend integrations (Stripe, payment flows) and frontend UX, he also mentors junior engineers to accelerate team impact. Based in New York, he brings an entrepreneurial creative streak from running a game studio and design consultancy, which informs his focus on elegant, form-and-function solutions.
